We would very much love to hear from our Alumni if they are interested in participating and encourage all to reach out by completing the REQUEST INFO form on the top of this website, emailing us directly at armyrotc@calpoly.edu, calling us at 805-756-7682, or stopping by Dexter Building and seeing us in person.
