NSU ROTC: The RiverHawk Battalion
ROTC
Welcome to the Northeastern State University Army ROTC Department. The Army ROTC program
at NSU is both challenging and rewarding. There's no commitment required to join;
you can try it out during your Freshman and Sophomore years and gain some valuable
leadership skills at the same time. But if you're ready to commit to a challenging
career, then an Army ROTC scholarship might be available for you. If you are a member
of the Army National Guard, Army Reserve, or have prior military experience you may
be able to take advantage of additional financial benefits in ROTC while you continue
college. Contact us right away to see how you can become part of the Army ROTC program
here at NSU.
