ARMY ROTC
EXPERIENCE THE CAMARADERIE OF ROTC
When you become a part of Army ROTC, you're not just working toward a diploma, but an even brighter future as a leader alongside other motivated Cadets. But make no mistake, you're a student first. You'll have a college schedule like your fellow students, but you'll also receive classroom and field courses that will challenge and excite you. Beyond that, you can take part in events and activities with fellow Cadets that will make your college experience even better.
“ UConn Army ROTC has been everything I imagined and more than I expected. In addition to drilling with the 1/102nd Infantry in Manchester, Connecticut, I gain Army experience every week on campus. I need the motivation that only a team environment offers. Three times a week we get up early and conduct PT (physical training) as a team, and have a lot of fun. Staying in good shape is only a part of Uconn ROTC. Army school slots are available to all contracted cadets. I personally have my eye on an airborne slot this summer, and a JAG (Judge Advocate General) internship the following year. ”
