As a College Student

Register for the Freshman Army courses, ARMY106 in the Fall and/or ARMY105 in the Spring. You may enroll for ARMY105 in Spring without having taken ARMY106 in the Fall.

You incur no service obligation to the Army by registering for these classes.

You have options:

  1. If you are enrolling for the Fall semester, you can accelerate the basic course and take both Freshman and Sophomore Army courses. This requires ROTC department approval
  2. If you are enrolling for the spring semester, you can register for Army classes as an introduction to the program, but you will have to attend Cadet Initial Entry Training (CIET) over the summer, or Basic Training

You incur no service obligation to the Army by registering for these classes; however, you must enlist in the US Army to enter Basic Training

 

You have 3 options:

  1. You can attend Cadet Initial Entry Training (CIET) or Basic Training before you begin your junior year / graduate study and then register for the Junior Army courses, ARMY301 in the Fall and ARMY302 in the Spring
  2. Alternate Entry Option. You contractually agree to attend Cadet Initial Entry Training (CIET) after your Junior year and the Cadet Leader Course (CLC) after your Senior year. You will register for the Junior Army courses, ARMY301 in the Fall and ARMY302 in the Spring, your Junior year
  3. Placement Credit. Qualified individuals can use experience and prior training as credit towards the army basic (freshman and sophomore) courses

You must contract during your Junior year

Seniors may take the Freshman and/or Sophomore Army courses as an introduction to the program, with the intention of completing the Advanced Course (ARMY300 and 400 classes) while pursuing a graduate degree at UMCP.
