NJROTC is an elective class. The program counts as PE credit for the first 2 years of high school and as honors elective credit for the last two years. NJROTC is also one of the Troy Tech pathways (known as Governmental Leadership). For more specific information, such as doing NJROTC with a sport or IB program, ask a current NJROTC cadet or your counselor!

Uniforms are provided. White shirt, cover, socks, shoes, uniform shirt and pants, relaxed fit jacket (upon request) are provided. Cadets will be required to reimburse any lost or damaged uniform items (other than the socks).

It’s recommended to purchase: a gray PE shirt with the NJROTC logo, black PE shorts with the NJROTC logo, and a windbreaker with the NJROTC logo. These can be found on the “Spirit Wear” page, or by clicking here.

• If your cadet loses part or all of their uniform, they will be assessed a fee. Uniform shirts, pants, belts, or shoes can be replaced at the Supply department for free if your cadet outgrows them. For lost uniform items, refer to the Supply department for information on replacement costs.

• Uniform dry cleaning

• Haircuts for males (every 2-3 weeks)

• Field trips may require a small fee to help offset the cost of transportation (bus/plane).

• If your cadet participates in one or more teams in the unit, they may be asked to pay a fee to help pay for competition fees and supplies.

• Competition trips that require an overnight stay or more will have a fee. The Booster Club works to decrease the costs of these trips through fundraisers. We ask that each cadet make a $400 activity donation to help offset some of the costs of running the program (e.g., pay for cadet name tags, website hosting, change of command ceremonies, and competitions) and to participate in unit fundraisers such as restaurant dine-in events, email fundraisings, etc.
