Hey! I currently live in Texas and ideally, I'd like to stay close to home for college. Do you know of any colleges in or near Dallas that have strong military programs? Thanks for your help!
Sure, I can guide you on colleges near Dallas that have a strong military presence.
The first one that comes to mind is the University of North Texas. They have both Army and Air Force ROTC (Reserve Officer Training Corps) programs. These programs can provide you with leadership training and scholarship opportunities while you're pursuing your degree.
Texas Christian University, in the neighboring city of Fort Worth, is another strong option. It offers Army ROTC through its Military Science department.
Lastly, Southern Methodist University, located in Dallas itself, hosts the Mustang Battalion, an Army ROTC unit. It's worth noting that the degree programs and organizational culture of the university you select will also play a role in your overall experience - not just the military program.
I hope this gives you a good starting point in your search! You may want to check each school's specific ROTC program for details on the benefits and obligations it entails.
