Scholarships are often available for current college students and may cover up to 2 or 3 years of tuition and fees or room and board.<\/li>\n<li>Prior military service:\u00a0Soldiers who are currently in the National Guard or U.S. Army Reserve can participate in Army ROTC through the Simultaneous Membership Program (SMP). Cadets in the SMP serve as officer trainees in the Reserve or National Guard while completing college. SMP Cadets can earn their Reserve\/Guard pay and benefits in addition to Army ROTC allowances.
