Quick facts
About this program
NROTC George Washington University sits inside George Washington University as the campus's NROTC unit. NROTC has been on this campus since 1942. The mission is straightforward — produce U.S. Navy and U.S. Marine Corps officers — and the cadre run a four-year curriculum to do exactly that.
Georgetown University, Howard University, American University, and Catholic University of America are the cross-town partner schools feeding NROTC George Washington University. All ROTC-side curriculum runs at the host; partner-school students typically attend twice a week and full PT three to five mornings.
Midshipmen contract under Navy Option, Marine Option, or — at participating units — Navy Nurse Option, with full-tuition national scholarships available out of high school and side-load opportunities for college programmers. On the academic side, George Washington University draws midshipmen into history and the humanities as well as nursing and health professions, and the cadre work directly with academic advising on time-conflict resolution between ROTC and major requirements.
