Quick facts
About this program
Army ROTC at Tuskegee University runs as Tiger Battalion (Tuskegee), an officer-accessions battalion for the U.S. Army. Tuskegee University is a historically Black college, and the unit commissions officers from a population the services have actively prioritized.
Partner schools — Auburn University and Alabama State University — round out the corps. The battalion runs one training schedule for the consortium, so a cross-town cadet sees the same cadre and contracting boards as a host-school student.
Most contracted cadets at Tiger Battalion (Tuskegee) ride a national scholarship — AROTC 4-Year National for the high-school awards, plus on-campus side-loads for college programmers. Tuskegee University is academically strong in business and political science, which is well-aligned with the services' branching priorities.
