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!

That is accurate and I comissioned in 2018. I am also in the Army so I am unsure if that would make much of a difference

$100.00 (1983-86) It was $100.00 for quite a long time, and then finally went to $150.00 I think when I was an APMS in the mid-1990s. Then, sometime after that when I was back as a PMS, it changed to the "graduated scale" like you are on now.

If I recall rite, 1979-1982, $35/month. I hope they're not complaining about it now!!...

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.

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.
