Army ROTC
Join the Purple Eagle Battalion
Army ROTC (Reserve Officers’ Training Corps) is one of the best leadership courses in the country and offers classes you can take as electives within your normal college curriculum. You can take up to the first two years of the program without having to contract to serve in the Army. Army ROTC pays for your tuition while you go to college and train to become an Army Officer.
