LEADER'S TRAINING COURSE

The Leader's Training Course is an 28-day training experience for college students unable to meet the basic course requirements on campus.  Completion of LTC allows current sophomore to enter the 2-year ROTC Advanced Course in the Fall.  You could consider it the Army ROTC version of a "CLEP" course to put you on the 2-year fast-track to a commission as an Army Second Lieutenant upon graduation from Texas Tech, Lubbock Christian University, or Wayland Baptist University. 

The general requirement is that you will have at least four more semesters before you graduate from Texas Tech or one of our partnership schools.  There is some flexibility to this depending on your particular academic situation and how summer terms may affect your progress.  Feel free to contact our enrollment counselor at 806-742-2141 for more information.    

 

We are currently processing students for enrollment in our Leader's Training Course (LTC) this summer. LTC is a paid 4-week summer training course at Ft. Knox, KY.  It essentially “CLEPs” you out of the first two years of ROTC (the freshman & sophomore classes you have missed) and will make you eligible for our Advanced Course (junior & senior-level MILS classes).  The Army picks up all costs for this training and gives you a paycheck as well.  LTC slots are now open for scheduling and time is now critical to ensure smooth processing under this option.

 

2-YEAR ROTC SCHOLARSHIPS FOR GRADUATES OF THE LEADER'S TRAINING COURSE: 

 

News just released by our Commanding General - we can now offer 2-year ROTC Scholarships to all LTC graduates who are otherwise eligible (these scholarships cover 100% of TTU tuition OR an equivalent amount for room & board, plus $900 a year for textbooks and a monthly stipend of $450).  We can also students 2-1/2 year pre-LTC scholarships that are effective for the Spring 06 semester as well.

You might be thinking – why do Army ROTC? 

 

Please take a look at http://www.branchorientation.com for a great overview of each of the 15 career branches available to Army Officers.  Each branch has its own site breaking down the different jobs and opportunities available to you.  Also keep in mind that you can pursue either an active duty or reserve duty commission as a Second Lieutenant.
