<p>Again, you need to do some research. The following link is to a site with a LOT of knowledgeable military people. If you post there I’m sure someone can give you more specific answers than I.

<p>As I understand the military JAG system: If you pay for your own college (and not enroll in AROTC at all), you can apply to the Army and ask them to pay for Law School with the understanding that you will be a JAG Officer after graduation and will serve X number of years as a payback. Another option is to pay for your own undergrad and Law School and then apply to the Army as a JAG officer. The third is the option I suggested in my first post; AROTC through college and then ask/apply to the Army for permission to go to Law School before coming back as a JAG officer. The fourth and (AFAIK) final option is to serve four years as an officer (something other than JAG) after AROTC and college and THEN apply for the JAG program. Someone MUCH more knowledgeable than I will need to give you your odds of pursuing any of these options.</p>
<p>Good Luck!</p>
