ROTC National Scholarship Process
Step #1: You need to complete an on-line application that you can access through this link. Remember your login and password for your cadet portal. Your login is the email you use to establish your account.
Step #2: Submit high school transcripts (at least through junior year) and SAT or ACT scores. You can upload PDFs through your account in the Cadet portal.
Step #3: Take the ROTC Basic Fitness Test. A coach or PE teacher can administer this for you.
Step #4: Conduct an interview at one of the university ROTC programs (ideally where your first choice of college is). We can do this any time here at UVM after you start the on-line application. We are more than willing to conduct a virtual interview if you live several hours away. Please reach us through our Contact page or call our Enrollment Officer Chris Cunningam (802-839-8212 or 802-656-5757) to setup an interview.
