    AFROTC Non-rated 2020-2021

    Are you asking about SFT selection? My assumption is since you are asking for non-rated competition overall, it is for SFT and not for career selection. If I am correct, than here is the deal, or what it has been for a couple of yrs. For SFT they break it down into 4 groups: TECH/rated...

    AFROTC- graduate degree, how does educational delay work?

    FWIW, the OP asked this question 9 years ago. For anyone that is currently looking for guidance now I agree with @unknown1961 that is best to ask your detachment for up to date options. Things change year to year. ~ IE look at SFT selection rates and how long SFT lasts from the yrs of 2012 to...

    What to look for in State School AFROTC Programs?

    AF wives would play with the guys, including me. We even had annual wives tournaments. I have to say, the best players when it came to hip checking were always wives. Our center of gravity is lower, thus, we could take them out at the guys knees. They would just drop on the floor. This...

    What to look for in State School AFROTC Programs?

    I can only speak of UMDCP when it comes to a program. I am from NJ, and Rutgers is a great school. Their AFROTC program from what I have known/seen here is strong and Rutgers is an outstanding state U, but I have no 1st hand experience. My husband and son commissioned from Det 330. 25 yrs apart...

    Double Major with AFROTC?

    @cb7893 Like I said for my DS he went to a Big10 college. I did mess up on my 1st response. DS was Dual Govt and Politics, with International Relations. The OP is doing Politics. So for my DS you actually could say he had 3. DS commissioned with 162 credits. He did jump start and had...

    Double Major with AFROTC?

    1 thing I forgot to mention, and I would like any current non-tech AFROTC cadet to chime in regarding this issue. I believe a non-tech cadet for AFROTC MUST take at least 9 credits in a foreign language as part of the commissioning requirements. The importance of this is regarding @cb7893...

    Double Major with AFROTC?

    They do offer a foreign language scholarship for AFROTC. It is important to understand a couple of aspects for AFROTC, and the scholarships. 1. If offered a foreign language scholarship and once in college you decide you don't want that major, you will be required to get HQ AFROTCs approval...

    Double Major with AFROTC?

    My DS commissioned as a double major in Political Science and International Relations with a minor in history. He carried a 3.4 gpa his entire college career so I do not see any problem doing that.

    Are students selected for AFROTC scholarships at specific schools or in general, for any school?

    It doesn't have to be a public college. It has to be the cost of in state tuition. IE. Your DS was awarded a type 7 and you live in DE, however, WV gives IS for ROTC cadets. Thus, even though he went OOS he was able to keep a type 7, similar to my example of TAU. I have a friends' DS that...

    Are students selected for AFROTC scholarships at specific schools or in general, for any school?

    Kinnem is correct about the types, such as, type 7 will only pay the cost of tuition for in-state. It doesn't mean you can't take it to an OOS if the school charges you the in-state rate. It does mean that unlike type 2 where it is capped at 18K and pay the difference, type 7 you cannot. Best...

    AFROTC PFA Score/Likelihood of a Scholarship

    Yes, but you have to read what they said was they were concerned about that score not being strong. Hence, they are implying 100, becuase who would be concerned if you have a perfect score.

    AFROTC PFA Score/Likelihood of a Scholarship

    Actually I know for my DS and my friends DS's (3 different universities over multiple yrs) their dets did it the 1st week of school. Granted these 3 dets were considered large dets and the cadets came back to college 1 week early compared to non-ROTC students, thus, it was really their 2nd week...

    AFROTC Type 2 vs Type 7 Scholarship

    A type 2 is higher level scholarship. It just happens that you are attending an IS college which creates part of the issue. The thing to understand is that HQ AFROTC has not increased the limit for a type 2 for over a decade + now (12 yrs). If you look at it, back in 08 when it was 18K it...

    What are my chances?

    You need to do it to the PFA requirements. I honestly cannot recall the order. IE it might be run, push up, sit up OR could be sit up, push up, run. Read the PFA form. I am not going to respond regarding a practice SAT. If you said you score 125 on your PSAT as a soph or junior, than I would...

    What are my chances?

    If I am correct there is no 5 minute rest time between portion, hence, the numbers you are posting are not true to the test. ~ I thought it was only 2 mins or so. ~~ 5 minutes is a huge rest time. Follow the PFA to a T...order, rest time and form. You cannot activate the scholarship if you...

    What are my chances?

    Did you follow the exact PFA? That means including rest times and in the proper order. You may not like what I am about to read, but take it to heart. I do not have enough fingers and toes for my entire family, including my pets regarding watching posters stats like yours that fail the 1st...

    AFROTC PFA Score/Likelihood of a Scholarship

    Is your 1500 superscore or best sitting? ~AFROTC does not superscore, it is only best sitting. ~ Either way that is a strong SAT. Now for the PFA. Although the PFA is a very small part of the WCS, it is a pass/fail aspect too. IE you don't meet the run time, but meet the push up and sit up...

    What are my chances?

    You still have not stated which ROTC scholarship you are looking at. If you are looking at AFROTC you will need to hit that 1300. At your current score, I do not believe they would even allow you to set up an interview, which is mandatory to meet the selection board. AFROTC will not look at...
