Our Officers provide the Army with the leadership and direction we need to overcome pressing challenges in the UK and across the globe.
Whether you are still in school, studying at university, have graduated, or decided to opt for the world of work, there is a place for you as an Army Officer.
University is not for everyone, and most Officer roles do not require a degree. However, if it is a degree you want, minus the student debt. The Army offers a fully funded BSc Leadership and Strategic Studies course in partnership with the University of Reading.
Your 42 weeks at the Royal Military Academy Sandhurst will contribute towards a third of your degree, which you can then complete over the next three to six years.
