Throughout the school year, representatives from each branch of the United States Military visit Clovis West to meet with interested students. Interested students can sign-up in the Counseling Center. Today's Military is a great website to learn more about a career in the military.

The Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery (ASVAB) is a multiple choice test used to determine qualification for enlistment in the United States Armed Forces. Drop in the Library to pick up a copy of the ASVAB Career Exploration Program Overview Guide to learn more about the test and access sample test questions.

The ASVAB is given at Clovis West and facilitated by our Librarian, Mrs. Laband. To take the exam, students must be in 10th, 11th and 12th grade. Please contact Mrs. Laband for ASVAB questions at [email protected].

ROTC stands for Reserve Officer Training Corps. It's a college program offered at more than 1,000 colleges and universities across the United States that prepares young adults to become officers in the U.S. Military. In exchange for a paid college education and a guaranteed post-college career, cadets commit to serving in the Military after graduation. When enrolled in ROTC you learn first-hand what it takes to lead others, motivate groups and how to conduct missions as a military officer. If interested, meet with a recruiter during your junior year to learn more about the application process.
