Summer Training
Advanced Camp (four weeks in the summer)
Advanced Course cadets must complete Advanced Camp at Fort Knox, Kentucky, before they graduate and receive a commission as an Army officer. Cadets normally attend Advanced Camp during the summer between their junior and senior years. Advanced Camp familiarizes
cadets with the basic branches of the Army and affords the opportunity to practice the concepts they learned during the preceding academic years while in ROTC. While at Advanced Camp, cadets receive lodging, subsistence, uniforms, medical care, and
reimbursement for travel to camp. Cadets also receive approximately $600–$800 for attending.
Cadet Troop Leader Training (CTLT)
In the summer between junior and senior year, selected cadets spend three weeks serving as platoon leaders under the mentorship of active component Army captains. CTLT cadets practice the leadership principles they learned in the ROTC program, leading
soldiers in units around the world. Cadets from previous years completed CTLT in Korea, Fort Bragg, Fort Leonard Wood, Fort Knox, and Germany.
Cadet Summer Training Basic Camp (four weeks in the summer)
Students who could not complete the ROTC Basic Course but who desire to enroll in the Advanced Course may apply to attend the Basic Camp at Fort Knox, Kentucky. Basic camp compresses the concepts normally taught during the Basic Course and makes the student
eligible to compete for an ROTC scholarship. While at Basic Camp, cadets receive lodging, subsistence, uniforms, medical care, and reimbursement for travel to camp. Cadets also receive approximately $600–$800 for attending Basic Camp. Call 1-800-IUP-ROTC
for more information.

ROTC cadets majoring in nursing have the opportunity to complete a rotation in an Army hospital or troop medical clinic, supervised by a Army officer nurse preceptor. Last year, ROTC nurse cadets completed NSTP at Fort Sam Houston, Texas; Fort Carson,
Colorado; and Walter Reed Army Medical Center, Washington, DC.
