CO's Letter

Thank you for taking the time to learn about the Naval Reserve Officer Training Corps at the University of Oklahoma. University of Oklahoma NROTC graduates possess a sound, professional background, are motivated toward careers in the naval service, and have demonstrated the leadership necessary to lead Sailors and Marines. If you are ready for a university education with the additional challenge of leadership and service in the United States’ Navy and Marine Corps, you’ve come to the right place.

NROTC at the University of Oklahoma develops our students mentally, morally and physically while inspiring them with the highest ideals of duty, loyalty. Drawing on the Navy’s core values of honor, courage and commitment, our program prepares young men and women for graduation from the University and for a commission as an officer in the Navy or Marine Corps.

The University of Oklahoma is located in Norman, Oklahoma. As a member of the Big 12 athletic conference, life at the University is certain to stimulate the mind as well as the spirit. Furthermore, our NROTC midshipmen complete an exciting training program each summer. This training is just a part of our program to prepare our students for leadership in the Fleet.

Selected applicants for the NROTC Scholarship Program are awarded scholarships through a highly competitive national selection process. Scholarship selectees receive full tuition, books, educational fees at the University of Oklahoma, and a monthly subsistence allowance. The scholarship application process is roughly the same as that for admission to the University; starting in the junior year of high school is a great way to stay ahead of deadlines!

Go Sooners!
