What are the obligations of a NROTC Scholarship Midshipman upon commissioning?
Scholarship students that graduate and receive their commissioning are obligated to serve 8 years of commissioned service, 4 years of active duty and 4 years inactive reserve. This is in an unrestricted line billet (surface, submarine, aviation, or special warfare). If students go to flight school as Pilots or Naval Flight Officers, their obligations increase to 8 and 7 years of active duty respectively, from their winging date.
