I plan to major in Engineering at Virginia Tech, can I complete my degree in four years (eight semesters) with all the Naval ROTC classes I must take?
It is possible to finish an Engineering degree while in the Naval ROTC program in four years; however, it would require an average course load of over 20 credits per semester. By taking courses in the summer, you can reduce that course load considerably for the normal academic year. A request may be submitted to receive summer school benefits. Midshipmen who are unable to complete the degree in four years can also request additional semesters of scholarship benefits to complete their degree. If the request is granted, the individual will be required to serve additional time on active duty.
