I would like to start by saying what an amazing resource this site has been. Our kid wants to do NROTC at college. We are a complete non military family so I'm struggling reading and understanding the terminology but still trying to learn. I have read through all the NROTC websites and still confused.
My understanding (I could be wrong though) is that if you do the 4 year scholarship NROTC, when you graduate you become an officer the same as someone who went to USNA.
My question is if you don't get the scholarship and you go to the Uni NROTC from day 1 you may still get a 2 or 3 year scholarship.
We are not concerned about needing the scholarship but the kid wants to be a Navy Officer after graduation. If they end up on the 2-3 year scholarship track do you still end up in the same place (officer) as the 4 year scholarship?
Sorry if this question is worded badly.
Thank you
