There is no NROTC national 3-year. It is a 4-year. BUT ..... if someone applied as a college programmer (Freshman), and was awarded a national one, it really is a 3-year deal - as my son and I have learned the hard way.
Sideloads are 3 or 2 year, depending on the candidate's class/credit level. They are competed only against those in college and associated with (or requested to be associated with) an active NROTC unit. Much smaller pool. And the CAPT will correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe the amount of those offered (along with Advanced Standing status) vary each year based on the needs of the Navy and available billets not taken up by already-scholarshipped-candidates and Academy mids.
