Cadets are assigned rotating leadership positions within the School Battalion and are evaluated on their performance and leadership abilities while in those positions. Third-year cadets practice briefing operations orders, executing small-unit tactics, leading and participating in physical training and preparing for successful performance at the four-week Cadet Leader Course during the summer following the third year. Under current regulations, attendance at the course is mandatory (in the past, <a href="/wiki/Ranger_School" title="Ranger School">Ranger School</a> was offered as an alternative to select cadets). </p> <dl><dt>Leadership Development Program</dt></dl> <p>During MSIII year and continuing through Advanced Camp, cadets are introduced to the Leadership Development Program (LDP). The LDP is a structured set of rotations where MSIII cadets are assigned to specific roles in an organization consisting of companies, platoons and squads. Some of the roles traditionally filled are that of a company commander, company XO, first sergeant, platoon leader, platoon sergeant and squad leader. </p><p>While filling these positions, the MSIII is evaluated according to the Army Leadership Requirements Model (ALRM) which centers on what a leader is (attributes) and what a leader does (competencies), outlined by the following model.<sup id="cite_ref-9" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-9"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>9<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <table class="wikitable"> <tbody><tr> <th colspan="3">Attributes </th></tr> <tr> <td style="text-align:center"><b>Character</b></td> <td style="text-align:center"><b>Presence</b></td> <td style="text-align:center"><b>Intellect</b> </td></tr> <tr> <td>Army values</td> <td>Military and professional bearing</td> <td>Mental agility </td></tr> <tr> <td>Empathy</td> <td>Fitness</td> <td>Sound judgment </td></tr> <tr> <td>Warrior ethos/Service ethos</td> <td>Confidence</td> <td>Innovation </td></tr> <tr> <td>Discipline</td> <td>Resilience</td> <td>Interpersonal tact </td></tr> <tr> <td></td> <td></td> <td>Expertise </td></tr> <tr> <th colspan="3"> </th></tr> <tr> <td style="text-align:center"><b>Leads</b></td> <td style="text-align:center"><b>Develops</b></td> <td style="text-align:center"><b>Achieves</b> </td></tr> <tr> <td>Leads others</td> <td>Creates a positive environment/Fosters esprit de corps</td> <td>Gets results </td></tr> <tr> <td>Builds trust</td> <td>Prepares self</td> <td> </td></tr> <tr> <td>Extends influence beyond the chain of command</td> <td>Develops others</td> <td> </td></tr> <tr> <td>Leads by Example</td> <td>Stewards the profession</td> <td> </td></tr> <tr> <td>Communicates</td> <td></td> <td> </td></tr> <tr> <th colspan="3">Competencies </th></tr></tbody></table> <p>The evaluation is usually given by an MS IV and is delivered in writing using a Developmental Counseling form, DA 4856. Cadets are counseled on their performance through the ALRM attributes and competencies. At the end of the MSIII school year, these counselings are collected and help determine a cadet's ranking on the Order of Merit List (OML), a ranking of all ROTC Cadets in the nation that impacts how Cadets receive their component and branch when they commission. </p> <dl><dt>Advanced Camp</dt></dl> <p>Advanced Camp is a paid 35 day leadership course conducted at <a href="/wiki/Fort_Knox,_Kentucky" class="mw-redirect" title="Fort Knox, Kentucky">Fort Knox, Kentucky</a> each summer. It was formerly conducted at <a href="/wiki/Fort_Lewis_(Washington)" title="Fort Lewis (Washington)">Fort Lewis, Washington</a>, <a href="/wiki/Fort_Bragg,_North_Carolina" class="mw-redirect" title="Fort Bragg, North Carolina">Fort Bragg, North Carolina</a> and <a href="/wiki/Fort_Riley,_Kansas" class="mw-redirect" title="Fort Riley, Kansas">Fort Riley, Kansas</a>. In 2014, Advanced Camp (then LDAC) was consolidated with Basic Camp at Fort Knox, Kentucky. This was a period of upheaval for the training event due to the rapid change of locations and new Cadet Command Commanding General stripping Advanced Camp of its graded portion. For 2014, Advanced Camp, then LDAC, retained its graded portions, but in 2015 it was changed to Cadet Leadership Camp (CLC). During the time it was called CLC, all the graded portions of were taken out and the 4 week period was pass/no pass. In 2016 a new commanding general took over Cadet Command, on his first day CLC became Advanced Camp and in 2017 the old style of graded events will be brought back. This includes a graded PT test, graded rifle qualification and graded training lanes. Typically, cadets attend Advanced Camp during the summer between their first and second years in the Advanced Course (junior and senior year of college). At Advanced Camp, cadets take on various leadership roles and are evaluated on their performance and leadership abilities in those positions. Cadets also participate in adventure training to include: confidence and obstacle courses, rappelling, water safety, weapons firing and patrolling. While at Advanced Camp, cadets take a series of standardized tests including the Cadet Development Assessment (CDA). The CDA assesses the state of a MSIII cadet's development in preparation for the MSIV year with a focus on mission-context problem solving. Cadets must attend and complete Advanced Camp to earn an Army commission. </p> <dl><dt>Military Science IV year (MSIV)</dt></dl> <p>This is the final year of the ROTC program and the main focus is towards preparing cadets to become successful lieutenants in the Army upon graduation and commissioning. Senior cadets apply for their <a href="/wiki/Army_branches" class="mw-redirect" title="Army branches">branches</a> (career fields). Senior cadets apply before end of their third year, but have until mid September to make any changes before they are locked in. In early November, cadets are notified of which branch and status they were granted (e.g., Regular Army, Army Reserve, Army National Guard). For those cadets selected for the reserve component (Army Reserve or Army National Guard), they are responsible for locating a unit with which to serve. Cadets selected for active duty (Regular Army) are notified of their first duty assignment in the spring semester, typically in early April. Throughout their senior year, MSIV cadets are assigned cadet battalion staff positions and are responsible for evaluating MS III cadets, planning and coordinating training operations and missions. The primary purpose of the MSIV year is to learn how to manage and evaluate training in the field while learning officership in the classroom. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Branch_assignment">Branch assignment</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Army_Reserve_Officers%27_Training_Corps&action=edit&section=5" title="Edit section: Branch assignment"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Branch assignments are made according to the needs of the Army.

Failure to reach the program standard may require increased physical fitness training on otherwise days of rest (commonly known as "incentive” or “remedial” PT). </p><p>Physical fitness is also a graded component of the Order of Merit List in the branching process. Cadets with higher scores on the ACFT during their MSIII year and at Advanced Camp receive more points in this category, which places them higher on the OML and makes performing well in physical fitness necessary for Cadets to receive their preferred branch and component. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="College_life">College life</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Army_Reserve_Officers%27_Training_Corps&action=edit&section=8" title="Edit section: College life"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>ROTC Cadets must train for the military at the same time that they complete their college degree.
