Army Officer Question?

By admin Posted in: Training

In December, ill be done with my freshmen year of college. How would I go about becoming a officer? What’s the requirements? I go to a local community college but At my local university, they have the Army ROTC nursing program. But my problem is that I don’t want to be a nurse, I want to be a field artillery officer,( let’s say they do have artillery) When December comes around do I simply go to the program and join even though I don’t even go the the university? Someone told me I could go to training during the summer and come back before school? Plz some explain to me about the rotc program

    First off you cannot even be ROTC since you are at a community college. You need to take 4 years of ROTC to be commissioned into the military as an officer and there are few to no community colleges that offer ROTC. You can however sign up for the national guard or reserve and then do ROTC when you transfer to University. But I believe you cannot even do that now because you are a year into college already. Your best bet would be to finish your bachelors, join the army as an enlisted under an artillery contract, and then after a few years in the army put in a packet to officer candidate school. BTW, being an officer isn’t just a pay increase; it means you will be in charge of people. Do you really think you have what it takes to be in charge of a unit when you’re newly enlisted in the military? This is exactly why one must go through 4 years of ROTC or an academy to be enlisted into the military as an officer.
