The Army Officers Reserve Training Corps (ROTC) is the college elective that lets you earn a college degree and an officer’s commission at the same time.



At Colorado State University, military instruction has been part of campus life since 1884. Set in the foothills of the Rocky Mountains, CSU provides one of the most beautiful locations to train in the United States.
