University General Education Requirements 

General Requirements

Admission to the SROTC Program is contingent upon good academic standing and acceptance by the department. The department will not accept transfer grades below a C in military science or related supportive courses. In addition, the student must meet the following criteria:

1. Be a United States citizen (or have resident alien status)
2. Have classification as a full-time student with a minimum cumulative GPA of 2.00
3. Have the ability to qualify for appointment as a second lieutenant before the candidate turns 30 years of age
4. Be of good moral character
5. Be physically qualified for a commission

A student entering the university after successfully completing training in high school or in a preparatory school that has an accredited junior division ROTC program is entitled, upon enrollment, to such placement as may be determined by the department chairperson.

Instruction is offered through four-year (entering freshman) and two-year (veterans or eligible sophomores and juniors) programs. Both programs include attendance at advance summer camp (Fort Knox, Kentucky) between the junior and senior years. Students not enrolled in the SROTC program may attend classes with the consent of the department. Basic and advanced course Cadets are issued, at no cost, uniforms and equipment necessary for the SROTC program.

The department’s assessment plan can be found in the departmental office.
