Military science courses are designed to prepare college students to develop their leadership, discipline and community awareness in response to the disaster risk reduction program of the community. To determine the effectiveness of the program of Bulacan State University ROTC unit and the result will be utilized as a basis for program enhancement. The study was conducted during the school year 2017-2018. The respondents of the study were the NSTP Director, Commandant and Staff, and Corps of Cadets . Descriptive statistics such as weighted mean, standard deviation, frequency, percentage and rank were used in the study. The Commandant and Staff, the Basic and Advance Cadets are predictors of the ROTC Program. Findings from this study revealed that among the factors age and course of the Corps of Cadets is the only predictors in the effectiveness of ROTC Program in RAATI. Thus, the null hypothesis of the study stating that the variables respondents related profile, ROTC administration, ROTC components, ROTC scholarship program, Disaster Risk Reduction Management, Knowledge, attitudes and practices on disaster mitigation and preventionof BulSU ROTC unit do not predict the effectiveness of the ROTC program is partially sustained.
