Program Requirements

NROTC midshipmen are required to be U.S. Citizens. For certain Naval communities, midshipmen who enter the program with dual citizenship must relinquish their non-U.S. Citizenship prior to commissioning.

In addition, NROTC midshipmen are required to complete a bachelor’s degree at an accredited institution in four (4) years and receive a commission as an officer in the United States Navy or the United States Marine Corps. Technical or engineering majors are highly encouraged. However, it is recognized that some of these degrees are difficult to complete in four years when combined with Naval Science commitments. If a midshipman pursuing a technical major is unable to complete a bachelor’s degree in four years, they may apply for extended benefits if the midshipman can show they did everything possible to complete the degree on time. Midshipmen are required to maintain an academic grade point average (GPA) of 2.5 on a 4.0 scale to remain in good standing.
