The Army standard for passing the APFT is 60 points in each of the three events for a total of 180 points. All ROTC scholarship cadets must achieve this standard each semester to retain their scholarship benefits. Army ROTC, Military Science, was established as an integral part of the academic curriculum of Clemson University beginning in 1893 with the institution’s first full-time academic year of operation. Clemson’s long association with Army ROTC began in the context of a military college with an all male corps of cadets. ( Army Reserve photo by Staff Sgt. Ken Scar)
