If I'm thinking correctly, (but don't hold me to it) I think that ROTC schools are best for if you plan to make a career out of the military. But I'm not certain on that. Something you need to ask the recruiter about for sure. Their job is to answer all of your questions about what you are required to do for the army and what the army is required to do for you.
