About University hosting ROTC vs. traditional school for academics

University hosting ROTC vs. traditional school for academics?
Can I be accepted in a school for academics that does not host ROTC? How will that work? I live in Anchorage and plan on doing my Academics in a university close to where I live. The University that hosts ROTC is 400-500 miles away from where I live. I would like to know how exactly will that work out before I start completing my green to gold scholarship application. Thanks!

Answer 1 :
You'll definitely need to find a closer university. My school is a "satellite," meaning that we have enough cadets for a company but we have to go to another school for battalion stuff. The other school is 20 miles away and even that is a hassle. Your situation would just be impossible.
Answer 2 :
Impossible. You will either have to be apart of a "satellite school", be enrolled at a University with an ROTC program, or just stay in school and go to OCS later down the road
