About this program
Headquartered on the University of Pittsburgh campus in Pennsylvania, Three Rivers Battalion is the local accession point into the U.S. Army.
Sister-school participation is a real piece of this battalion. Cadets from Duquesne University, Carnegie Mellon University, and Robert Morris University contract through Three Rivers Battalion and travel to University of Pittsburgh for the military-side requirements while keeping their core degree at the partner.
On the scholarship side: AROTC 4-Year National, AROTC 3-Year Advanced, Minuteman (Reserve/Guard) are all live channels at Three Rivers Battalion. Academically, University of Pittsburgh is well-regarded for international affairs and language study — a track that pairs well with ROTC's emphasis on technical and leadership majors.
