Quick facts
About this program
Nautilus Battalion sits inside Coast Guard Academy as the campus's Army ROTC battalion. The mission is straightforward — produce U.S. Army officers — and the cadre run a four-year curriculum to do exactly that.
The battalion operates as a single-campus program. Cadets live in Coast Guard Academy dorms, attend Coast Guard Academy classes, and walk to ROTC events on the same campus.
Cadets compete for the AROTC 4-Year National Scholarship as high-school seniors and the 3-Year Advanced board on contract. Minuteman seats route Reserve and National Guard contracts, and Green-to-Gold opens the door for prior-enlisted soldiers transitioning to officer. On the academic side, Coast Guard Academy draws cadets into history and the humanities as well as engineering and physical sciences, and the cadre work directly with academic advising on time-conflict resolution between ROTC and major requirements.
