ROTC scholarships provide students with a free ride through college in exchange for a commitment to serve in the armed forces after graduation.

Thousands of students receive scholarships each year to pursue an undergraduate degree through a Reserve Officer Training Corps (ROTC) program. Many colleges offer ROTC programs approved by the U.S. military to prepare students to enter the various branches of the armed forces.

Students may qualify for ROTC Army, Navy, or Air Force scholarships based on their academic merit and personal potential. Explore the most popular ROTC scholarships below.

How Does an ROTC Scholarship Work?

ROTC programs cover some or all of your postsecondary education and training costs in exchange for a commitment to serve in the armed forces after graduation. ROTC scholarships can cover up to 100% of your college tuition and fees provided that the program is approved by the U.S. Department of Defense and you meet the scholarship's eligibility requirements.

Funds may be applied to two- or four-year programs, depending on the scholarship. Both active-duty soldiers and students on reserve can use these scholarships while they pursue higher education. The service terms of each scholarship also vary, typically requiring candidates to serve a term of 3-8 years in their chosen branch of the armed forces as a condition of award.

ROTC Scholarship Requirements

Students must meet a variety of basic criteria to qualify for ROTC scholarships:

Army ROTC Scholarships

Air Force ROTC Scholarships

Navy ROTC Scholarships

Additional Financial Resources

Students must prepare and submit the FAFSA to determine their eligibility for ROTC scholarships and nearly all other types of federal financial aid.

Federal Student Aid: The Federal Student Aid office of The Department of Education offers a variety of federal grants and scholarships, including but not limited to Army, Navy, and Air Force ROTC awards.

Army ROTC Scholarships: GoArmy.gov features in-depth information about all available Army ROTC scholarships, including full eligibility criteria and how to apply.
