Army ROTC embodies Princeton's motto, “In the Nation's Service, and In the Service of All Nations.” Since the birth of the United States Army, Princetonians have answered the nation's call. In 1919, Princeton ROTC began training officers to lead the nation's sons and daughters, and preparing Princetonians for distinguished careers in many diverse fields. Our program now also includes cadets from The College of New Jersey and Rider University. TCNJ and Rider cadets belong to the Lion Company of Tiger Battalion.

The objective of the Officer Education Program at Princeton is simple: We Train to Lead. Princeton Army ROTC develops leadership skills that will serve you for the rest of your life.
