College Programmer - Tuskegee University NROTC

Description

The college programmer option is geared towards those who do not have a scholarship with the NROTC program. This still allows civilians to come in and be a part of the unit, but the military does not cover the cost of tuition or the other expenses related to the college experience.

Generally, college programmers pay for their first year until they earn a full scholarship with the U.S. Navy. This is a requirement to continue through the program.
