http://armyrotc.com/edu/univilurbanachampaign/about.htm
The information on our website is not only beneficial to students but to parents as well, as our website includes important information on college scholarships and leadership opportunities. Each year we have 40 state scholarships (40 x $9,000 = $360,000) and a number of federal scholarships that pay full tuition, books, fees, and provides a monthly stipend.
In ROTC, individuals go to college, get their degree, and then serve their country. There is no service commitment for the first two years. ROTC cadets must decide by their junior year of college if they wish to continue in our program and serve as an Army officer upon graduation.
