Question

Could I go ski and do other recreational stuff on the weekend if I was in the ROTC program?

Answer 1

Most likely.  ROTC demands time, but most of that will be during the week.  You will rarely not have a weekend free.

I graduated and was commissioned through ROTC and had most of my weekends free.  On rare occasions we had weekend activities.

Answer 2

There will be weekends devoted to ROTC training but you would definitely have enough weekends to have fun. Your junior and senior years will require more time towards ROTC because you will begin seriously training for LDAC, serving in leadership positions, or preparing to commission and head into the real Army.

Answer 3

If they give you the time off? Sure.

Answer 4

Of course.  I went through ROTC and was only gone on one or two weekends over the course of a year.  I did go to the advance course for 6 weeks between my Jr and Sr year in college, but I played college volleyball, went skydiving a lot, and took a lot of personal trips while in ROTC.  It is what you make of it.
