In addition to paying your college tuition, we’ll send you a monthly allowance of up to $333 for expenses—about $11,000 over a four-year period.

All ROTC scholarships require a service commitment. Check with your recruiter for details.
Student Loan Repayment Program
For Soldiers and officers who have an existing student loan obligation at the time of enlistment in the Guard, there is a program that may pay up to $50,000 for certain jobs, with a six- or eight-year enlistment as a member of a unit.
In addition, current Guard members who extend their enlistment contract for a minimum period of six years are also eligible for this program, provided they meet certain requirements, including a qualifying score on the Armed Forces Qualifying Test and being in a valid Military Occupational Specialty (MOS) Military Occupational Specialty (MOS):
Guard speak for “your job.” Every job title in the Guard has a code, using a number and letter. For example, a Cavalry Scout is MOS 19D (19 Delta). in a National Guard unit.
Your state may have its own funding packages in addition to these federal programs. Ask your local recruiter.
The Guard has other programs and services to help you earn additional college credits, prepare for your graduate school exam, or even get your GED—all while earning your Guard pay. Find out more.

The Rhodes Scholarship, named after Cecil Rhodes, is an international postgraduate award for study at the University of Oxford, and was the first large-scale programme of international scholarships. Rhodes Scholars may study any full-time postgraduate course offered by the University, whether a taught Master’s programme, a research degree, or a second undergraduate degree (senior status).
In the first instance, the scholarship is awarded for two years. However, it may also be held for one year or three years. Applications for a third year are considered during the course of the second year.
University and College fees are paid by the Rhodes Trust. In addition, Scholars receive a monthly maintenance stipend to cover accommodation and living expenses. Although all scholars become affiliated with a residential college while at Oxford, they also enjoy access to Rhodes House, an early 20th century mansion with numerous public rooms, gardens, a library, study areas, and other facilities.
“For more than a century, Rhodes scholars have left Oxford with virtually any job available to them. For much of this time, they have overwhelmingly chosen paths in scholarship, teaching, writing, medicine, scientific research, law, the military and public service. They have reached the highest levels in virtually all fields.”

I’m a graduating senior in high school and like evry other graduate, I need help paying for college. I want to be in the military so I know they can help me out. I’m going to be attending Clearwater Christian College and study Pastoral Studies and hopefully become a chaplain in the Navy. Thats my goal. The thing is, I need to pay for it in any way possible. So I was thinking maybe I could get an Army scholarship (if it’s easier), have them help pay for college, then switch over to the Navy as a chaplain. The thing is, would my rank transfer over with me? And how long would my service be to the Army before I can switch over to the Navy? Is there any other way to help pay for college and still become an officer in the Navy? If anyone could help me out and give me a clue, that’s be great.
Thanks and God bless.
That won’t work. Think about it. Why would the Army shell out the money to train and school you and then let the Navy reap all the benefits for free? I’m sorry to be the one to tell you that it does not work this way.
