 Student Life
Our students, known as "Midshipmen" are full-time students at Northwestern University preparing to become officers in the Navy or Marine Corps. They enjoy all the benefits and responsibilities of other Northwestern students with the added advantage of belonging to our team.
Members of NROTC are leaders in many organizations on campus. Some of our current midshipmen are sorority/fraternity presidents and vice presidents, varsity athletes, contributors to Northwestern publications, and club members.
Midshipmen at Northwestern University have unique experiences to travel (on summer cruise, leadership conferences, and the Tulane drill meet) forming special bonds and cohesiveness through activities such as intramural teams, the sail team, the drill team, dining-in, and the military ball. Click here to read an article about one midshipman's recent summer cruise travel.
Because NROTC places no restriction on choice of academic major, students are free to pursue a curriculum that interests them in one of the nation's most respected institutions of higher learning.

Midshipmen receive specialized instruction to prepare them for service in the Navy and Marine Corps.
Active duty Navy and Marine Corps officers teach students about naval history and tradition, leadership and
ethics, and current issues relating to today's military. Every midshipman receives specialized mentorship
and advising on topics from choice of academic major to career choice. Professional tutoring is provided for
topics like Calculus and Physics. Because you are a part of our team, our staff is on hand to ensure your
academic and military success.
In addition to their studies, midshipmen lead the way on campus in giving back to the Chicago community.
Each holiday season, the battalion supports the United States Marine Corps Toys for Tots Drive. Students
participate in a number of Veteran's Day events in the Evanston area. On campus, our students frequently
participate in events like fraternity or sorority community service and Northwestern's famous Dance Marathon.
Our battalion has the unique advantage of terrific support from their alumni. Each year the Northwestern N.R.O.T.C. Scholarship Foundation donates thousands of dollars to deserving midshipmen. Contributions from alumni help subsidize special events, finance improvements to the midshipman lounge, and purchase improvements to the midshipman computer lab.
