The current rate is $450/mo for juniors and $500/mo for seniors. The rate was last updated sometime in the last 20 years and I'm trying to find when that was for a briefing I'm doing in class. Thank you!

They just recently updated the stipend to a flat rate for all cadets, regardless of year. It's $420 flat now

1980 to 1984, $100. For history, check references in AR 145-1, Senior ROTC Program. There might also be a Joint Federal Financial/Compensation Regulation (JFCR) or a reference on the Department of Finance and Accounting Services (DFAS) or the Cadet Command Finance Office.

I was just hearing there was an update with the pay system, so now MSIV gets $420 instead of the $500. I was in the old cycle back when I contracted so I still get the $500. Not too sure if this making any effects and changes yet but it should be soon according to my HRA at my school.

I just always check my DFAS MyPay a week in advance before the payment process so if there is problems, I can bring it up so my unit or ROTC can fix it ASAP through pay branch.

Interesting. That update isn't reflected on the DFAS website that I see so far.

Sir, are you certain we're talking about the same thing here? I'm contracted at E3, but definitely don't make E3 reservist pay as a cadet.
