ROTC

RTC stands for Reserve Officer's Training Corps. Usually starting in high school and going through college, ROTC is a program that trains students to prepare for the military. It is an extra curricular activity and a student can be granted a scholarship for a university that has ROTC or he has a better chance at attending a military school like westpoint or the naval academy. Public schools offer ROTC as well, one of the largest ROTC programs in the country is at  Texas A&M University. ROTC students later work on commission through a military school.
