Army ROTC Pre-Orientation Fall 2009
This year's pre-orientation dates are August 16-20, 2009. The
focus of our program is to get students excited about Army ROTC.
Our organization is a physically fit, values-based organization
that prepares students to become the future leaders of the Army
and the nation. All Elmira College students are welcome and
encouraged to participate in our New Student Orientation with
no obligation to join the Army.
Water survival, rappelling, high ropes course, rifle marksmanship,
rock climbing, military history and customs, a flight in Blackhawk
helicopters, introduction to leadership and our cadet tutoring/mentoring
program are just a few of the opportunities you will experience
during our New Student Orientation Program. You will have an
opportunity to meet new friends and have a lot of fun getting
prepared to begin your college career here at Elmira College.
Army ROTC is arguably the best Leadership Course in America.
The ROTC experience is one of the few national programs that
offer practical leadership instruction and evaluations that
have proven to provide the future business and government leaders
of tomorrow while developing cadets to become better citizens
and students.
For those more inclined to serve our nation, options exist.
Full-tuition scholarships, summer training and internships,
and the nationally acclaimed Leadership Development and Assessment
Course are just a few. Serve your country and get paid an average
starting salary as a 2nd Lieutenant of $49,500 with a guaranteed
job immediately after graduation.
