I am an 18 year old who just finished his first semester of college. I've been considering doing ROTC for a couple years, my dad do it and he turned out allright. He's not pressuring me to join it and I recently got a scholarship that will cover me for the rest of my schooling process if I dont do ROTC. So money isn't an issue.
The reason I want to do ROTC is so that I start as an officer and go through boot camp before I graduate school. I'm unclear on what my options are if I graduate first and then enlist. Is there a way I can pick which branch of the army I'm in? I would like to be in Military Intelligence, Military Police or Finance.
I don't want to make a career out of the army but the jobs I really want (FBI, CIA, etc.) look kindly on 4-5 years in the military.
So I figured I'd ask the play ground their opinion on this, does anyone have any ROTC/enlistment experience they want to share with me?
