[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, ROTC full scholarships are extremely competitive. Kids typically have to get into the school while also competing for the scholarship. That said there are a lot of programs at many/most colleges. A B/C student can do ROTC at any of the colleges they would be targeting for admittance. There are also kids who enlist then go to college or even a service academy. Plenty of options but he is young so let him focus on high school before thinking about college. [/quote] This is a crucial piece of information - they have to FIRST qualify for admittance to that school AND they also need to serve a minimum number of years after college (I think PP is accurate, I think it is now 5 years). Each school that offers ROTC should have a ROTC office for you to speak to, OP. ie: you can NOT shirk your obligations and you must meet the requirements fo the school - so you are serving two entities - the school and also the federal government. It is an extremely serious commitment. [/quote]
