ROTC (Reserve Officers Training Corps) is a 4 year program that helps students learn leadership skills while in college. Upon successful completion of an ROTC program and upon graduating from a four year college or university with a Bachelors degree, a student may be commissioned as an officer in the United States Military. While attending college or university ROTC participants may receive scholarships and other monetary benefits.
