Stand Out From The Rest
See how interesting college can be when you're a part of Army ROTC. You'll be
a college student first and foremost, just like the rest of the student body,
but there's a key difference: you'll have even more opportunities to succeed.
These opportunities include Field Training Exercises (FTXs) in the spring and
fall where Cadets build their teamwork and leadership skills. Cadets also
participate in Physical Training (PT) on a regular basis to keep up their
strength and endurance.
In addition, each battalion has its own unique calendar of events and activities.
Learn more about Events and Activities
Being a part of the Texan Battalion
means you’ll be part of a great university organization with students who
share your interests and goals. The ROTC program emphasizes teamwork and
esprit de corps. You’ll have the opportunity to participate in ROTC
events like adventure training, tail-gate parties, paintball, intramural
sports, and a Spring formal. Members of the Texan Battalion currently
participate in varsity sports, hold leadership positions in student government,
and are active members of fraternities and sororities.
Students in the ROTC program at Tarleton State University
learn important skills in a hands-on environment with support from the cadre
members. The ROTC courses teach leadership skills, time-management,
ethics, and basic map reading. We have a Leadership Lab once a week where
all the cadets meet to apply the lessons covered in the classroom and
textbook. The ROTC Freshmen and Sophomore courses count toward the
required Physical Education (PE) credit or as an elective. You tuition in
the Freshmen and Sophomore ROTC courses is reimbursed if you are a Texas
resident and the textbook is free. There is no military obligation
incurred for taking the Freshmen and Sophomore ROTC courses.
