You go to training after your Sophomore year in the Summer and if you pass then you continue on for 2 more years of ROTC and are commissioned upon graduation and then activated based on needs of the service (it's not uncommon to have a wait time of several months after commissioning until actually getting your first assignment). Also after "camp" you get a small monthly stipend for your remaining time in college.


Slightly off.

Senior Military College cadets are exempt from the "basic camp" (between sophomore and junior year at Ft. Knox) requirement. "Advanced Camp" (Fort Lewis) is a precommissioning requirement that counts towards 1/3 of your overall commissioning OML score and occurs between your MS3 (junior) and MS4 (senior) year.

Your stipend actually takes effect as soon as you sign your scholarship paperwork (2, 3, or 4-year scholarship) or when you sign a contract (non-scholarship). Either way, the latest it takes effect is your junior year (MS3).

That's a change then. When I was in school you had to go to camp after your Sophomore year but I was also Air Force ROTC. They had all ROTC folks represented there, not just SROTC. Perhaps it is also different in the Army.
