ROTC Scholarships

Army, Air Force and Navy ROTC scholarships can be used to finance a UT education. Students who receive ROTC scholarships may also be eligible to receive UT ROTC room and board grants covering up to the average cost of on-campus room and board (not to exceed actual room and board costs). In addition, ROTC scholarship recipients may receive monthly stipends for personal expenses from the ROTC Program.

Two-, three- and four-year ROTC scholarships are possible at UT. Students who do not have ROTC scholarships in their first year may apply for two- or three-year scholarships. Check with the appropriate service branch for scholarship application deadlines. For more information:

  • Army ROTC (813) 258-7200
  • Air Force ROTC (813) 974-3367
  • Navy ROTC (800) 628-7082 ext. 22343

To qualify for a UT ROTC room and board grant, students must apply and be admitted to the University as full-time undergraduate degree-seeking, live in campus housing and purchase a meal plan. They should indicate that they are candidates for ROTC scholarships when they submit their application for admission.

ROTC students must complete the FAFSA. Florida residents must satisfy all annual renewal requirements for state-funded awards. The amount of the UT ROTC room & board incentive grant is reduced by the amount of other awards that students receive, including (but are not limited to): Florida Bright Futures scholarships and the Federal Pell Grant. The room and board grant is awarded in the fall and spring semesters only. Awards are made for the lesser of the average room and board costs or the student's actual charges.

Students may not receive more than the actual cost of attendance from all sources of aid. Total gift aid may not exceed total direct costs (tuition, fees, room and board). ROTC scholarships may not be combined with any previously awarded UT scholarships or grants. For more information, see section on Excessive Awards
