Majors
The Navy is preparing our officer corps of the future to meet the dynamic challenges in the next generation of technology and leadership. In structuring our academic programs to meet these challenges, undergraduate academic majors for NROTC Navy option midshipmen are divided into three categories or tiers:
- Tier 1 engineering programs of Navy interest
- Tier 2 other engineering, math and science programs
- Tier 3 foreign language and remaining academic programs
In order to keep pace in this high tech and diverse environment, approximately 85 percent of Navy option NROTC scholarships offered will be awarded to students interested in completing a Tier 1 or Tier 2 academic major. The NROTC scholarship provides full tuition and fees to the University of Idaho and Washington State University campuses. Marine-option students are not required to use tiers.
