Each summer, 4 year scholarship midshipmen
will participate in 4-6 weeks of professional training
in the fleet to broaden their understanding of the Navy
and Marine Corps and to aid in their service selection
decision making prior to commissioning.
CORTRAMID
Midshipmen completing their 4/C year will
participate in CORTRAMID located in either Norfolk,
VA or San Diego, CA. CORTRAMID is typically 4 weeks
long. One week is spent with each of the following
communities to provide the student with real life
experience of each option available to them upon
commissioning: Surface Warfare community, Submarine
community, Aviation community, and the Marine
Corps.
2/C and 1/C Cruise
Midshipmen will participate in a 2/C and 1/C summer
cruise after their sophomore and junior year where
they will be assigned a running mate, or sponsor, on
a particular ship, submarine, or squadron. These
cruises vary in length based on operational
schedules and the midshipmen will get an in depth
look at the particular community in which they serve
during their 2/C and 1/C summer cruise.
