The Army ROTC is taught at nearby Georgetown University as a part of the consortium of local universities. Registration must be completed through the consortium. The U.S. Army ROTC Program consists of structured study in Military Science courses in addition to regular studies in other fields. The program prepares graduates for leadership as commissioned officers in the U.S. Army. Non-scholarship students must be 33 or younger on the scheduled date of commissioning in addition to other criteria noted above.
Enrollment is totally elective on the part of the student and selective by the program director.
Military skills and knowledge are the core curriculum of ROTC classes. Professional Military Education is an elective course in Military history, computer literacy, and communications in association with the completion of an academic curriculum leading to a baccalaureate degree. All uniforms, textbooks, and required course reference material for the core curriculum courses are furnished at no expense to the student. Additionally, while attending the Advanced Camp, each cadet receives pay equivalent to one-half of that of a second lieutenant on active duty, room and board, medical and dental care, and paid round trip transportation between Camp and the student s home of record. The Basic Camp offers the same entitlements except for a difference in pay.
