degree plan, provided such degree planwas filed at the appropriate time asdetermined by school officials.

(3) Required to be repeatedbecause of injury or illness that preventedthe cadet from completing scheduledcourses during the academic year, providedthe cadet's absence was approved by theschool authorities and the PMS. The cadetmust be accepted for enrollment/reenrollment and qualified for continuancein the program.

b. Related academic expense. A"flat rate" fee will be paid for books andequipment. Flight fees required by anyacademic discipline will not be paid.

c. Subsistence allowance. Allscholarship cadets are authorized asubsistence allowance. The subsistenceallowance will begin on the date that thecadet enters the first term of college workunder the scholarship contract or on thedate the cadet meets all requirements forand is appointed as a scholarship cadet,whichever is later. The subsistenceallowance will continue until the cadet hasmet all requirements for commissioning orhas been disenrolled, except as providedbelow or by other law, regulation ordirective. MS I, II and V (extendedbenefits) cadets receive subsistenceallowance for no more than ten months ofany academic year or the actual duration ofthe academic year, whichever is shorter.MS III (through MS IV year) cadetsreceive subsistence allowance for no morethan 20 months uninterrupted except whileattending Advanced Camp and CadetTroop Leader Training (CTLT) during theJunior and Senior years.

(1) A scholarship cadet unableto contract upon entry into the ROTCprogram may participate as a conditionalcadet pending decision by the properauthorities. Conditional cadets will not bepaid scholarship benefits or subsistenceuntil found qualified for enrollment/contracting and actually enrolled/contracted.

(2) Advanced course ROTCcadets and basic course scholarship cadetswho are enrolled in "cooperative course"may receive credit and subsistenceallowance for ROTC training during thatpart of their academic course while awayfrom school, provided they continue toperform the minimum required trainingthrough military correspondence courses.Cadets enrolled in programs sponsored bythe school, which include study at foreigneducation institutions or study on anoverseas campus of the ROTC institution,may perform ROTC training and receivesubsistence allowance under the samebasis. Since cooperative programsgenerally involve more than four years ofstudy, a leave of absence (LOA) from theROTC may be granted to the cadet whileaway from the school. No compensation isapproved or allowance accrued while thecadet is in an LOA status. Subsistencepayments are stopped during any LOAperiod.

d. Travel reimbursement.

(1) Cadets authorized travelreimbursement are as follows:

(a) Four-year scholarshipcadets.

(b) Green to Gold scholarshipcadets.

Cdt Cmd Reg 145-1

(c) Military Junior College(MJC) scholarship recipients attending theMJC for the first time as college freshmen.

These cadets listed above are authorizedone time travel entitlements from theirhome of record to the school for thepurpose of enlisting in the USAR ControlGroup (ROTC) and to obtain the academicdegree shown in the contract. (See JointFederal Travel Regulation (JFTR), VolumeI, paragraph U7150-F).

(2) All scholarship cadets areentitled to return travel to their home ofrecord on discharge from USAR ControlGroup (ROTC) if they are not orderedimmediately to active duty, except thosecadets who remain at the school after suchdischarge to continue their education(JFTR, Volume I, paragraph U7150-F).

e. Reimbursement. When scholarshipawards are made after the beginning of theschool year, the PMS will take action toupdate cadet database, reimburse theschool for tuition provided, ensuresubsistence allowance is started and toreimburse the cadet for travel andacademic expenses authorized under thescholarship contract.

(1) Payment of cadetscontracted prior to SY 95-96 (contractdated July 1992) and SY 94-95 3-yearAdvanced Designees are grandfatheredunder the $8,000.00/80% rules. Tuitionand mandatory fees are payable up to$8000 or 80%, whichever is greater.Mandatory fees are defined as thoserequired of all students every school year.Miscellaneous fees (those additional on-campus fees such as laboratory fees,student activity fees, transcript fees, health

fees and graduation fees) will be paid notto exceed $400.00 per school year.

(2) Payment of cadetscontracted for SY 95-96 (signing contractdated June 1995) and later and SY 94-952-year Advanced Designees are assigned atier level associated with a not to exceeddollar amount published annually by CadetCommand. The amount by tier coverstuition, mandatory and miscellaneous fees(see Appendix C which will be updatedannually by Resource Management,Headquarters, Cadet Command) andrepresents the cap for that tier level, not aflat rate amount paid to every cadet in thattier. Tier amounts are for the normalacademic year, which excludes anyapproved summer term benefits. Cadets'tuition/fee payments will be made based onthe invoice listing approved tuition andfees not to exceed the tier amount.Examples: a cadet with a 9K tierattending a school whose approvedtuition/fees total $10,000 will have hischarges covered at $8000.00 for theacademic year (excludes approved summerschool), the cadet is responsible for thedifference. A cadet holding a 12.8K tier,attending a school whose approvedtuition/fees total $10,000 will have theentire $10,000.00 paid through hisscholarship, but no more than the$10,000.00. A 3K cadet attending aschool whose approved tuition/fees total$3,000.00, will have his tuition paid at$2,550.00. A 3K cadet attending a schoolwhose approved tuition/fees total$1,000.00, will have the entire $1,000.00paid, but not more than that amount.Three basic rules of thumb apply forpayment of fees under the tiering concept.

Cdt Cmd Reg 145-1

10

(a) If it applies to all students,all the time, every year, it is payable (olddefinition of mandatory fees).

(b) If the fee is connected to acourse required for degree completion orthe fee is required for attendance at thatCollege/University, it is payable.

(c) Any fee listed as anoptional fee in the school catalog is notpayable. Optional means it is a choice ofthe cadet and not required for degreecompletion.

(3) The flat rate payment forbooks, supplies and equipment isestablished annually by Cadet Command.The flat rate payment is intended topurchase books, supplies and equipmentand does not include rental fees. It ispayable in one half increments for semesterschools and one-third increments forquarter/trimester schools. Flat ratepayments to returning cadets will beprocessed through ROTCMMS on the firstday of classes. All new awardees will havethe payment processed on the 45th day ofclasses. Subsequent semester/quarterpayments are processed 15 days prior tothe first day of class for each term.Payments should be received 10-15 day’safter the payment is processed. Paymentsare made by the Defense Joint Military Paysystem-Reserve Component/ROTC PaySystem (DJMS-RC/ROTC).

(4) For the purpose of payingscholarship benefits, the normal academicyear begins with the fall term and ends withthe spring term. Cadet’s validating in thesecond term of the school year are onlyentitled to one-half or one-quarter(depending on school term) of the annualawarded scholarship.

(5) Approved summer schoolsessions will be paid outside the tier levels.Tuition and all fees (mandatory andmiscellaneous) will be capped andpublished annually by Headquarters, CadetCommand with a flat rate book paymentalso established annually.

(6) Colleges/Universitiesconducting a term in between Spring andSummer. Cadets wishing to attend thisextra term will have to be approved alongwith summer sessions and the tuitionbecomes part of the summer sessionpayment.

(7) Scholarship payments arenormally paid directly to the school. On anexception basis, scholarship payments canbe made directly to the cadet. ROTCRegions are responsible for assuring thatthe cadet submits a certified true copy ofthe school’s itemized bill and paid receiptthat clearly breaks out tuition, fees andother costs. The paid receipt submitted bythe cadet must indicate that either the cadetor his guardian actually paid the bill.Payments authorized will be withinscholarship tuition and fee limits asprescribed by the scholarship contract ineffect for that particular cadet.

(8) Payment of cadets whowere awarded an ROTC scholarship inconjunction with other scholarships/ grantswill be processed as follows. If the otherscholarship/grant was specified for tuitionand fee’s and the cadet’s total tuition andfee’s are not fully covered under theirROTC scholarship, the cadet may use theother scholarship/grant towards thatportion not paid by the Army ROTCscholarship. The cadet’s tuition is notreduced by the amount of the other award

Cdt Cmd Reg 145-1

11

before application of the Army ROTCscholarship. Example: A cadet awarded a$9000 ROTC scholarship attends a schoolwith a tuition amount of $10,000. TheArmy ROTC scholarship will pay $9000and the cadet may use the other awardagainst the $1000 difference.

(9) Payment of Cadets atMilitary Junior Colleges (MJCs).

(a) Cadets appointed underTitle 10, U.S. Code, Section 2107a, areentitled to full tuition payment, therefore,the scholarship cap and/or tier level shouldnot be applied. The cadet database reflectsa scholarship award category of MJ or BRfor those MJC cadets appointed under2107a. The scholarship contract, DAForm 597-3 (Jun 95 edition), Part II,paragraph 21a(1) should be annotated withthe words “published tuition rate” sincethese cadets are not awarded a tier.

(b) All other cadets attendingMilitary Junior Colleges will be paid underthe appropriate cap or tier as indicated ontheir scholarship contract. Section 2107does not allow for full payment of allcadets attending an MJC, therefore, it isimperative that the cadet database bechecked for scholarship award categorybefore payment is made.

(10) Payment of HealthInsurance/Health Fees. If the schoolrequires full health insurance coverage, andit is optional whether to purchase theschool policy or an independent policy, theschool policy may be payable as amiscellaneous fee. If all students arerequired to purchase the school’s healthinsurance, it is payable as a mandatory fee.The payment of any health insurance/feeshould be reviewed on a case-by-case basis

as required by each college/university.ROTC cadets are covered by Veteran’sAdministration (VA) for serious injuries(permanent in nature) or Workman’sCompensation for less serious injuries(temporary in nature) when participating inROTC activities.

(11) Tuition and fees can bepaid for cadets attending approved coursesthrough cooperative programs at schoolsother than those in which they are enrolledfor ROTC from the host institution,provided the courses are not offered at theextension centers and are a prerequisite forgraduation.

(12) Excess credithours/semester overloads: Courseoverloads and excess credit hours may bepaid within the cadet’s individual tuitionlimits as long as they assist the cadet instaying academically aligned, are requiredfor degree completion and prevent arequest for extension of benefits or summerschool. These excess classes will not bepaid for any reason stated in paragraph fbelow.

(13) Payment of tuition forcollege credit obtained for attendance atAdvanced Camp will be handled on a case-by-case basis under a request for paymentof summer school courses.

(14) Questions regardingpayment of various tuition/fee benefits willbe coordinated between the RegionResource Management and Personnel andAdministration Divisions before forwardingto Resource Management, Headquarters,Cadet Command. All exceptions to policywill contain a point of contact from bothoffices.

Request forextended benefits must be submitted andapproved 30 days prior to completion as aMS IV scholarship cadet and must includethe following documentation:

(1) Current completed copy ofROTC Cadet Command Form 104-R

Cdt Cmd Reg 145-1

13

(Planned Academic Program Worksheet)and a Cadet Record Brief. Currenttranscript and all transcripts from collegespreviously attended, if applicable, anddocumentation of MS credits, DA 597-3(contract) page 1 and cadet’s signaturepage. (See CC Pam 145-4, Appendix Q,for form completion instructions).

(2) Extract from theuniversity's catalog describing theundergraduate degree program courseschedule and required curriculum fordegree requirements. Course descriptionsare not necessary.

(3) Favorable recommendationof the PMS and endorsement ofappropriate ROTC region to Commander,U.S. Army Cadet Command, ATTN:ATCC-PS, Fort Monroe, VA 23651-5000, to include -

(a) Projected cost of therequested extension of scholarship benefits.

(b) Identify requestedsemesters.

(c) Why requesting extensionof benefits.

b. The following are eligibilityrequirements for extension of scholarshipbenefits, to include summer tuition(benefits are considered from the point ofcontracting as a scholarship cadet).

(1) Minimum 2.7 cum GPA, asshown on the college transcript,nonwaivable. In instances where aninstitution uses other than a 4.0 gradingscale, the PMS/Battalion Commander willconvert the applicant’s cumulative GPA tothe 4.0 scale using the institution’s

conversion scale. In addition, if classes arenot based on credit hours (i.e., transcriptshows credit units), they should beconverted to hours.

(2) Maintain adequateacademic progression towardsundergraduate degree requirements:

(a) Meeting minimumrequirements to qualify as a "full time"student for tuition purposes (normally 12units per term), seldom means makingnormal progression toward a degree.

(b) If, for example, the schoolcatalog identifies a requirement of 128semester units (not counting ROTC) to geta degree in a four year program and thecadet has a four year scholarship, divide128 units by eight semesters. This meansthat the cadet must average 16 units persemester in order to make normalprogression toward a degree.

(c) If in the above example, thecadet qualified for a two-year scholarshipand still requires 68 semester hours(excluding ROTC) to qualify for a degree,divide 68 by the remaining four semesters.In this case, the cadet should be averaging17 hours per semester to be making normalprogress.

(d) Five year degree programsmust be documented and curriculumoutlined in the university catalog.

(3) Consistent with a above,good academic performance with no D's,F's, or I's from the point of contracting.No courses were repeated to meetacademic department or universityrequirements for minimum grades. Cadet

Cdt Cmd Reg 145-1

14

must not be on academic probation thepreceding semester/quarter.

(4) Current term andcumulative ROTC GPA 3.0 or better,nonwaivable.

(5) No dual majors.

(6) No loss of credits due tochange of major.

(7) No loss of credits due totransfer of schools (not as a result of aschool closure).

(8) No extension for a termwhen the cadet requires fewer hours thanthe number of hours constituting full-timeenrollment. Example: The cadet requireseight hours, but the university catalogindicates that 12 hours constitute full-timeenrollment. However, if eligible forextension, cadet may request summertuition regardless of degree provided it isat the end of MS IV and degreerequirements.

(9) After-the-fact requests areunauthorized and will be returned withoutaction. Submitting an incomplete packet,which delays processing in a timelymanner, just in order to get a request in ontime will not be condoned. Regions havethe authority to return incomplete packets.Extension of scholarship benefits must beapproved prior to the commencement ofthe requested semester/quarter.

c. Unless required by thecurriculum plan, only cadets in technicaldegree programs, Engineer, PhysicalScience and Nursing (EPS&N), are eligiblefor summer tuition, nonwaivable.Freshman summer tuition is not an option.

The purpose of summer sessions is toreduce the academic course overload fortechnical degrees and to keep cadetsaligned with projected mission sets.Summer term benefits are used in lieu of orin combination with the extension ofscholarship benefits (fifth academic year).In addition to the above requirements, thefollowing are eligibility/proceduralrequirements for summer tuition.

(1) Must register for andcomplete a minimum of six, but not morethan nine credit hours of course workrequired for the degree during eachsummer term. This authority is for onlytwo semesters/summers and is notauthorized for the summer after thefreshman year (Fall/Spring).

(2) Must attend sameeducational institution at which the cadet isseeking the degree, or have a letter ofacceptance from institution attendingindicating the hours taken at anotherinstitution will be accepted toward thedegree.

(3) Remedial, backgroundenrichment courses or make up course as aresult of academic failure/difficulty are notauthorized for payment.

(4) Military science courses arenot required during the summer term, thus,no subsistence is authorized. Exception:If a military science course is taken as partof degree requirements then subsistencemay be paid, provided payment does notexceed the maximum allowable for theschool year.

(5) The use of summer tuitionauthority reduces the available extension ofscholarship semester benefits. One

Cdt Cmd Reg 145-1

15

summer term equals one semester/quarter.Currently, there are two semesters or threequarters of extended benefits authorized ona case-by-case basis. The completion ofone or two summer terms reduces the fifthyear of extended benefits. Thus, when onesummer term has been authorized, only oneadditional semester or two quarters ofextended benefits can be authorized.

(6) Request for summerbenefits authority will be submitted toHeadquarters, Cadet Command, inaccordance with a above. The RegionCommander's endorsement for EPS&Nsummer benefits or extended benefits mustindicate if EPS&N summer tuition waspreviously paid. The PMS justification forthe payment of summer tuition mustinclude the academic plan on CC Form104-R as prescribed in CC Pam 145-4.Approval will be for the courses indicatedon the CC Form 104-R.

(7) For payment purposes,approved summer tuition will beconsidered a separate period from thenormal academic year. Summer periodbegins at the end of the spring term andends at the beginning of the fall term.Summer tuition, fees and flat rate arepayable up to an annual amount asestablished by Headquarters, CadetCommand.

(8) The Professor of MilitaryScience must ensure that EPS&Nscholarship cadets receiving summertuition clearly understand that the summerbenefits are in lieu of a semester/quarter ofbenefits.

d. Any request which does notmeet the above criteria is to be returned bythe Region to the Battalion.

e. Four-year scholarship cadetsreceiving extended scholarship entitlementsin excess of four years, incur an additionalperiod of active duty or reserve dutyequivalent to the length of entitlementextension. This extended period of activeduty, however, does not prohibit theArmy's option to permit/offer RFD to thesecadets under the terms of the ROTCscholarship contract. Three-and two-yearscholarship cadets receiving extendedscholarship entitlements do not incuradditional obligations since theirscholarship entitlements would not exceedfour years.

f. Cadets granted extended ROTCscholarship benefits will be entitled tosubsistence allowance as well asscholarship benefits during the period ofthe extension. To receive extendedbenefits, the cadet must currently be andcontinue to be a full-time student enrolledin the Army ROTC.

Chapter 7.Scholarship Transfer

7-1. Transfer of scholarship cadets.Contracted scholarship cadets may transferprovided--

a. They remain academicallyaligned.

b. It results in no change inacademic discipline unless approved byproper authority.

c. Individual receives approvalfrom gaining and losing PMS. Four-yearscholarship recipients may only transfer toan approved Army ROTC institution.Nurse scholarship recipients may onlytransfer to a university recognized as aPartnership in Nursing Education (PNE).Four-year Historically Black College/University scholarship recipients may onlytransfer to an approved HBCU.Scholarship cadets must be informed thatindividuals who lose academic credit dueto a transfer of schools will not beconsidered for extension of benefits.

Being with you today is a distinct pleasure. I am here to present a certificate to (NAME OF WINNER),who has been (conditionally) selected to receive an Army Reserve Officers' Training Corps scholarship.

Receiving this certificate is the culmination of a process that began several years ago. (NAME OFWINNER) can be extremely proud of this achievement as competition was keen.

ROTC scholarship will provide an annual amount towards college tuition and mandatory educationalfees, provide an allowance for textbooks, school supplies, and required equipment. In addition to thesegenerous benefits, this scholarship also includes an educational grant of up to $1,500 each school year.

Adding it all up, you can see that this scholarship will go a long way toward meeting financial expensesassociated with going to college. But the really great thing about this scholarship is that when (NAME OFSTUDENT) graduates, (HE/SHE) will have more to show for (HIS/HER) college days than just adiploma--(HE/SHE) can have the confidence, self-discipline, and leadership skills that come with havingearned a commission as an Army officer.

Our cadets are trained to accept increasing responsibilities right from the start. I am proud to say thatour graduates are leaders, thinkers, and decision makers. As a direct result of their Army ROTC training,our cadets have learned to meet problems head-on and solve them quickly. They know how to adapt torapidly changing situations, and they eagerly take charge.

As you can see, Army ROTC gives students a valuable opportunity to build for the future by helpingthem earn both a college degree and an officer's commission. ROTC is a demanding and challengingcomplement to traditional college courses. The standards for admission into this program are quite high--as they must be since the individuals who complete this training are to be ultimately entrusted with the livesof American soldiers.

(NAME OF WINNER) has met these high standards and we are all proud of (HIM/HER).

Appendix BArmy ROTC Scholarship AcademicDiscipline Targeting

B-1. General. The ROTC scholarshipprogram has been missioned to ensurethat scholarships are awarded tospecific academic discipline groups.Scholarships will continue to be on abest qualified basis; however, thespecific academic discipline grouppercentages is a goal that is applied inthe selection of scholarship recipients.The four-year national and the two and

Cdt Cmd Reg 145-1

21

three year on-campus programs are theonly scholarship programs subject tothese percentages.

a. Engineering - 30 percent.

b. Physical Science -Analytical - 25 percent.

c. Technical Management -25 percent.

d. Generalist - 20 percent.

e. Nursing - separateallocation

B-2. Academic disciplines. Theacademic majors listed in the academicdiscipline categories at table B-1 willbe used in determining which academicdiscipline will be applied forscholarship purposes. For academicmajors not listed, BattalionCommander will, in coordination withthe appropriate university departmenthead, evaluate courses required for themajor and align it with the closestacademic discipline listed and use the 3digit alpha code for that discipline.Engineering and nursing scholarshiprecipients must be enrolled in anacademically accredited program.

B-3. Degree pursuit. All nationalscholarship recipients are required topursue the undergraduate degree in theacademic discipline in which thescholarship was awarded. Failure tocomplete degree requirements in thediscipline, except as provided for inparagraph B-4c and B-4e below, willbe considered as a breach of thescholarship contract and the cadet maybe required to reimburse the Army for

educational benefits provided underthe scholarship or may be called toactive duty as an enlisted person.Scholarship recipients may not pursuean undergraduate degree in Theologyor any religion related major.

B-4. Request for change of academicdiscipline. The PMS may approve anyrequest for change of academicdiscipline for contracted scholarshipcadets provided they stay within thesame academic discipline mix (ADM)group and their mission set doesn’tslip. If graduation slips, region mustapprove. Contracted scholarshipcadets may only change their academicdiscipline once. Requests foradditional changes will not be honored.It is especially important that theBattalion Commander resolve anacademic discipline change prior to thecontracting of the recipient. Four-yearnational and two and three-year on-campus recipients of nursescholarships may not change academicdiscipline and retain their scholarship.Scholarship cadets must be informedthat individuals who lose academiccredit due to a change in academicdiscipline will not be considered forextension of benefits. Proceduralguidance on the discipline changespermitted follows:

a. The selection of scholarshiprecipients by academic discipline isdone with the specific intention ofmeeting the Army's need for juniorofficers with specific disciplines. Topermit changes in academic disciplineafter the award of the scholarshipsubverts the purpose of the program.

Cdt Cmd Reg 145-1

22

b. After the award of thescholarship, recipients who have notyet enrolled as a scholarship cadet andwho desire to change academic majormust submit a request in writing toCommander, Headquarters, U.S. ArmyCadet Command, ATTN: ATCC-PS,Fort Monroe, VA 23651-5238.

c. Battalion Commanders(PMS) are the approving/disapproving

authority for contracted scholarshipcadets and enrolled three- and two-year advanced designees to anacademic major that falls under thesame academic discipline (e.g., abiology major can change to physicssince these are both physical science-analytical discipline); or to anacademic major that moves up (e.g., abiology major can change to nursing orengineering).

DISCIPLINE CHANGED MAJOREngineering - To other Engineering or Nursing

majors.Physical Science - Engineering, Nursing and other

Physical Science Analytical majors.

Technical Engineering, Physical Science- Analytical, Nursing, or other Technical majors.

Generalist- Engineering, Physical Science- Analytical, Nursing, Technical, or other General majors.

Figure B1. Battalion Commander Approval Authority

d. Region Commanders are theapproving/disapproving authority forcontracted scholarship cadets andenrolled three-and two-year advancedesignees to an academic disciplinethat moves down (e.g., from anengineering major to a biology major)with the exception of a nursing major.Due to the Army’s need to controlmigration from technical degrees, thisauthority may not be further delegated.

B-5. It is imperative that the BattalionCommander institute procedures tovalidate the registration of scholarshipcadets in the disciplines in which thescholarship was awarded or ensure changeof major is approved by proper authority.
