The Reserve Officers Training Corps is a college-based education and training program leading to commissioning as a U.S. military officer. Each U.S. military service branch has its own version of ROTC, with the Navy and Marine Corps offering college and university-level NROTC programs. Army and Air Force ROTC programs are found at many colleges and universities as well. Young adults accepted into Army and Air Force ROTC programs enter as cadets while Navy and Marine Corps NROTC participants enter as midshipmen.Military ROTC ProgramsThe military offers ROTC programs at more than 1,000 colleges and universities. In exchange for a paid-for college education, the ROTC cadet or midshipman agrees to serve in the military after he graduates. Each military service's ROTC or NROTC program differs in certain respects due to the nature of the mission each service has historically been assigned. While they're ROTC cadets or midshipmen, college students study in their chosen fields as well as study and train to be military officers.ROTC Cadet DutiesBoth Army and Air Force ROTC offers cadets a two-year or four-year program that emphasizes basic military skills and officer leadership education. As in the active Army and Air Force, ROTC cadets fill officer-level leadership positions within their universities' ROTC training battalions, including battalion commander. Air Force ROTC cadets fill leadership positions within their universities' AFROTC cadet wings. Army and Air Force ROTC cadets spend their classroom time learning the military sciences and their drill time preparing for commissioned officer leadership roles.
