Simultaneous Membership Program
As a member of the Ohio National Guard or United States Army Reserve (USAR), you can earn over $1200 per month plus full tuition assistance while participating in Army ROTC. Normally the SMP membership starts in your sophomore year with at least 6 semesters remaining to complete your degree program. If you think you are qualified, contact Xavier Army ROTC today!

- E-5 Drill Pay: $289/month
- MGIB Entitlement: $345/month
- MGIB "Kicker": $350/month
- ROTC Stipend: $420/month
