    You have strong academics and demonstrated leadership. If you score well on your PFT and do well on your interview you should be fine. Good luck!

    Does AFROTC scholarship type depend on school selection.

    AF scholarship does not depend upon school choice. In fact, once awarded you can take your scholarship to any school as long as if it's tied to a tech major you keep a tech major.

    Official 2016 AFROTC POC Selection Process Thread

    These great people are AF ROTC cadets, and we're just selected for an enrollment allocation and thus will be heading to summer field training. Without the EA they likely would have had to leave ROTC and not be able to commission through this path.
