Minuteman

The Minuteman Scholarship is a National Guard Scholarship. Cadets who receive a Minuteman Scholarship are committed to serving in the National Guard as an officer upon graduation. Cadets may choose to serve in any states’ National Guard upon graduating from the ROTC program.

Specialized Scholarships

Army ROTC has specific scholarships for nurses, active duty enlisted soldiers interested in the Green to Gold program, and current UTC students that agree to attend basic camp for one month to replace the first two years of military science instruction they may have missed. 

Additionally, students interested in the Simultaneous Membership Program where they train both on campus with our program and as members of the Tennessee National Guard or Army Reserves are eligible for further financial benefits.

For more information on all of the benefits available, contact Mr. Kent Maddox by sending an email to [email protected], or fill out our Cadet for a Day form to come on campus and learn about all that we offer!
