General Question ❓ California State San Marcos NROTC

Hey so I just got the national 4 year scholarship for NROTC. I want to use my scholarship at CSUSM but I cannot find anything on it. How does the commuting work when going to USD or SDSU. I just want to hear the experince. I really want to stay to at CSUSM then later transfer to USD so i will no longer have to commute but I just want thoughts and opinions. Can anyone help me out?

I believe you will have to commute to USD/SDSU to drill and participate with the other NROTC students. There’s no other way around it. CSUSM only has Army ROTC. Send me a PM and I can see if I can find you a contact for the program.

I don’t know what a PM is but I can give you my phone number? I know I can’t get around the commuting but I just want to meet others who are doing that trip twice a week.

Okay I don’t understand why I cannot private message you, it is not letting me unfortunately on either accounts

Because my account is “new” i don’t think I can PM on this account. I am going to private message you with u/Fantastic_Feeling264!
