Yes, I have two grad students a Dartmouth ROTC now, but doing just two years of a four year program necessitates more Work than for a traditional student.
Talk to the cadre for your specific program.

2LT (Join to see) - more work because of time limitation? I already enlisted so BCT and AIT will already be out of the way compare to civilian students going in ROTC...I'm also planning to move so perhaps I can talk to different ROTC programs see which one in the state best fits me and just move close to that?

SPC (Join to see) exactly, adapting to some of the Army expectations for Advanced camp can be a lot of work, but having done Basic and AIT will make a huge difference. What MOS did you get?
You should certainly talk to the program cadre at the school you plan to go to. If you’ve seen one ROTC program....you’ve seen one ROTC program. Each one is a bit different. I have a bunch of general resources and Camp prep tips, but the cadre at your specific program will give the best advice for doing ROTC at that school.

2LT (Join to see) - 25B...I'm actually moving from where I enlisted now (where my college was, I enlisted right after graduation), back to where I am from (CA) but I can go anywhere I want so I guess talk to different ROTC programs and see which one works for me and move there.

I know you have to be full time just get the rotc scholarship. I know someone that finished all his classes besides one because it was only offer in the fall. he took three credit hours but he was also a completion cadet which means he finished his ms 4 year and completed advance camp. I would say you would have to be full time because you have to fill out a 104R and some cadre members will only accept it in the required amount of time to get your degree. you will have to see with your ROTC program because every commander is different.

Yes, I am currently working on my master's and doing ROTC, but am taking 3 years to complete it. Talk to the cadre at your University to figure out your options. You can probably enter as a lateral entry cadet since you have prior experience. Thus you'd come in as an MS3 instead of a MS1 or MS2.
