Alexander, Sergeant Furman Elder, III Military Science (Army ROTC) focuses on leadership development. Students pursue the major of their choice while studying Military Science, and graduate with the ability to function effectively as a leader. Upon completion of Army ROTC and graduation from college students become commissioned officers in the active Army, Army Reserve or National Guard. Instructors, textbooks, uniforms and equipment are provided at no cost to the student or the University. All contracted students receive $150 per month (up to $1500 per academic year). Army ROTC also covers the cost of tuition and fees for Army ROTC scholarship students and provides a book allowance. The Margin of Difference. Army ROTC cadets learn to be leaders and receive hands-on experience in managing physical, financial, and human resources. They develop a high level of self- confidence and superior decision-making skills. Employers value these leadership qualities and recognize associated potential. Four-Year Program. The traditional Army ROTC program covers four years consistent with normal undergraduate progression (freshman-senior). The four-year program is divided into two parts called the basic course and the advanced course. The basic course is usually taken during the first two years of college. It covers subjects such as mountaineering, land navigation, winter survival, leadership development, small unit tactics, weapons marksmanship and military history. This program is designed for high performing students who wish to try Military Science, without obligation while enhancing their leadership skills and self-confidence. Upon successful completion of the basic course, students are eligible to enter the advanced course. Advanced course requirements are normally completed during the junior and senior years. The advanced course further develops and refines leadership competencies, and qualifies the student for a commission in United States Army. Advanced course students receive a $150 per month tax-free subsistence allowance (up to $1500 per year), and attend a paid five-week leader development camp between their junior and seniors years. Two-Year Program. This is a special program for junior and community college transfers or students who did not take Army ROTC during their first two years of college. To enter the two year program, a student first participates in five-weeks of basic leadership instruction. This usually takes place between the sophomore and junior year. Students are paid for attending this instruction, have the opportunity to compete for two-year scholarships, and may receive academic credit. Scholarships. Army ROTC offers numerous scholarship opportunities. Usually about 55 percent of WSU Army ROTC students are on scholarship.
