Going to NROTC from Active Duty

[ckkinders]

Hey everyone....I was just wondering if anyone knows how hard it is to get into the NROTC from Active Duty. My husband is trying to do this. He graduates Artillery school on Friday, and he has the highest scores they have ever seen-they were even trying to find some loophole to promote him to Corperal. Anyways, he really wants to finish school (he'll do it online if he can't get into NROTC) but I was just wondering if anyone knows anything about this. Thanks!!!!

I assume he is an active duty Marine. That being the case there are programs available. We just discussed MECEP here the other day, and all the details are in that thread. I would think it would be his best shot.

Whereever he gets stationed will have places for him to take classes. You don't have to do it online. The Marine Corps will pick up a large portion of his tuition payments as well, so its a good deal.
