There's a reason Army ROTC Cadets go on to become Generals, Governors, Entrepreneurs, and CEOs.

What is Army ROTC?

Army Reserve Officers’ Training Corps (ROTC) is a college-based officer training program which is an elective curriculum that you take along with your required college classes. Army ROTC students attend college like other students, but also receive basic military hands-on and academic training and leadership development while on campus.

You decide whether you want to enter the US Army Reserves, the Army National Guard, or the Active Duty Army. If you enter either the Army Reserves or National Guard, you owe 6 years of service. If you enter Active Duty, you owe only 3 years of active service if you never received a scholarship or 4 years of active service if you did receive a scholarship.

LEADERSHIP

IU Army ROTC ranks among the most respected leadership programs in the country.

IU Army ROTC has a long tradition of producing the nation’s top military, governmental, and business leaders. Cadets are taught to be leaders through hands-on experience in managing physical, financial, and human resources.

The experience and training provided by IU Army ROTC separates graduates from their peers. Whether you want to become an Officer or merely participate in the course, IU Army ROTC will refine your leadership skills and give you the hands-on experience valued by employers everywhere.

ADVENTURE

Challenge yourself with exciting adventures most college students only dream about.

We don’t lecture at IU Army ROTC, we learn by doing. Some of these activities include adventure training: confidence and obstacle courses, rappelling, water safety, weapons firing, tactical patrolling, ranger weekends, road marches, leadership reaction courses, land navigation exercises, and survival skills training.

Elite Army Schools
Contracted Cadets can also compete to attend elite Army schools such as: Airborne School, Air Assault School, and Mountain Warfare Training. Where else can you get paid to learn how to parachute from airplanes, rappel from helicopters, navigate rushing mountain rivers, and scale 30-foot glacier walls?
