If you're considering an undergraduate Nursing
degree, joining Army ROTC can enhance your leadership
skills and critical-thinking abilities while providing
financial support to help make your professional goals a
reality.
Being a Nurse in the Army provides you with
opportunities not found in the civilian world. As an
Army Nurse and Officer, you will have the respect of
your peers and coworkers, as well as opportunities to
train and serve in a variety of specialties.
Army ROTC can offer you unique nursing opportunities
while receiving financial assistance for college. You
will gain valuable leadership experience and management
training that can benefit you in either a military or
private-sector nursing career.
The Army ROTC program offers two-,
three- or four-year scholarships for undergraduate
Nursing students. Contact your high school academic
advisor or campus Military Science department for more
information.
Army ROTC Nurse Cadets have an opportunity for a
unique summer nursing experience. The paid, three-week
Nurse Summer Training Program assigns Cadets to Army
hospitals throughout the U.S. and Germany.
The program introduces you to the Army Medical
Department (AMEDD) and to the roles and responsibilities
of an Army Nurse Corps Officer. Under the supervision of
an experienced Army Nurse Corps Officer, you will obtain
hands-on experience. Your one-on-one clinical experience
will allow you to hone your clinical skills, develop
your problem-solving techniques and become comfortable
with developing your professional skills as a member of
the U.S. Army Healthcare Team.
