Hello all--
I'm a contracted AS400 cadet (non-scholarship during GMC) set to commission in 2016.
After a lot of thought I've decided that I no longer wish to be an Air Force officer. As someone who has come this far in the program, this is not a decision that I've come to lightly.
When I decided to join AFROTC several years ago, my main motivation was the ability to be able to pursue graduate school at a free or reduced cost thanks to the GI bill. I figured that AFROTC + the 4 years commitment would be a good experience and small price to pay to forgo having to take out thousands in loans. However, I don't think it would be fair to me or any potential future airman under me, for me to continue on this path. Every day I feel less and less motivated to take part in AFROTC and I realize now that this is really not the career path for me (no matter the length of commitment).
Unfortunately, it has taken me until my AS 400 year to come to terms with this. I have already successfully completed field training and contracted. I am familiar with the terms of the contract and therefore am asking for help on how to proceed with some form of dis-enrollment. For obvious reasons, it would be difficult for me to initially bring this issue up with my cadre. Thank you for your time and help.
