[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just because the family is affluent doesn't mean he (and they) don't benefit from the lower tuition that comes with ROTC. That money can be saved for more education later, invested for a future house, for retirement....[/quote] This. I don’t know how much rotc pays for today. But a friend of mine was rotc at Harvard (he did his rotc classes at mit) in the nineties and he graduated with only with eight thousand dollars in debt. He got zero financial aid other than rotc. His parents were divorced and he didn’t qualify for aid because his dad made too much money but his dad would not give him any money for college. So college was practically free. And you know you have a job when you graduate. He actually spent one of four years getting paid to get a graduate degree. I’m not sure how easy or hard it is to get into OCS. ROTC you have to apply etc. it’s not automatic.[/quote]
