Illinois State ROTC Scholarships

Three state ROTC scholarships per year are available to SWIC students transferring to eligible four-year institutions. The scholarships are awarded after the student transfers to a four-year institution. The scholarships cover tuition for as long as the student remains enrolled in ROTC. They can be given to students who are Illinois residents, attend a state land-grant school, and have demonstrated leadership ability (e.g., the ACT).
