Attention Class of 2028: Early move-in dates for all ROTC students will be announced shortly. We are currently working with the individual units, battalions, and detachments to ensure that all requirements are met and that agendas are included in official correspondence.
As of 28 May, no official dates have been announced.
For Veteran or Currently Serving Prospective Students, Catholic University will review the Joint Skills Transcript (JST) for applicable transfer credit. Transfer Credits will be awarded if the course meets the requisite ACE and Academic Department Guidelines.

Military and Veterans Admission Information
At the Catholic University of America we seek excellence in service to God, our nation, and the world. As part of that mission, we have a strong commitment to our military-affiliated student population (defined as veterans, active duty servicemembers, ROTC cadets, and military dependents). We strive towards meeting our goal of being a premier location in higher education for veterans continuing their studies as well as for training and supporting the next generation of military officers and national security professionals.
