    NROTC-MO Change of Major

    I’ve read a bit about other people wondering if they could change majors while in, so I understand it’s possible.

    Why do so many Marines graduate from the Citadel?

    Exactly as the title says. What makes the Citadel, compared to the other SMAs or ROTC programs, so appealing to Marine prospects? If you're a Marine officer who graduated from the Citadel, did you notice a large amount of your peers (who weren't in any Marine-specific classes) also going into...

    NROTC (Marine Corps v Navy)
