[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you don't do ROTC and you don't attend one of the military academies, when you graduate college, you have to attend Officer Training School. Takes more time. ROTC... as soon as you graduate, you have a job. Then you either remain for required number of years, or you stay in for full career.[/quote] +1 ROTC skips OTS. That's really the biggest difference, assuming that paying for college isn't a motivation. [/quote] Thank you both. Google says Officer Training School is 9 to 17 weeks. Are you paid for OTS? How do some take 1/2 the time (9 weeks) vs. 17? Does this mean the ROTC friend is merely 9 to 17 weeks "ahead" of my son after college -- or are there other things I'm missing? Is everything the ROTC friend did from freshman year to senior year akin to the OTS -- or was this past summer, the ROTC summer program essentially the OTS?[/quote]
