Anthony S. Portuesi has enrolled in the Army’s Reserve Officer Training Corps’ (ROTC) Early Commissioning Program (ECP) at the University of Maryland Baltimore County, Baltimore, Maryland, one of the five Military Junior Colleges that host Army Reserve Officers’ Training Corps programs.
The ECP is a two-year accelerated program for those students that meet the criteria to receive associate degrees and be commissioned as second lieutenants in the U.S. Army Reserve or Army National Guard.
They must then attend and complete their bachelor’s degrees at a four- year college or university.
