Then they switch. 2/c summer - Cadre, Cadet Aviation Training Program (CATP), Rules of the Road (ROTF), Coastal Sail Training Progam (CSTP) weapons training. 1/c summer - 10 weeks on an active duty cutter, or 5 weeks ona cutter and 5 weeks internship. Doesn't matter what your major is for cutter selection, however it may play a part in any internship you might seek. Of course, summer school is also a possibility for those who need it.

During 1st class summer, instead of doing an internship a cadet may be a Company Commander, or Regimental Staff for Swab Summer.
