<p>ROTC is an honorable commitment. Don’t even think about it as a way to pay for college. If you’re not ready to give your life for your country, then find a different way to pay for college. ROTC is not for just anyone. And no offense but with the attitude you exhibit in your post, it is not for you. “Stuck here… stuck there… stuck defending my country”… don’t do it please… the last thing we need is someone whining that he/she didn’t sign up to actually serve his/her country… “I just wanted to pay for college…” This is the REAL THING… possible loss of life… get it?</p>
