    DS has mentioned a watch. Would that work for your DD?

    I called the admissions counselor for DS since he is unavailable during their business hours. His counselor said she would pull his file. She said he would have to redo most things on the application. He had taken a few college classes while in high school and they can use the same transcript...

    ALO Interview Dress Code

    Our DS interviewed in July at Starbucks and definitely wore a suit. His ALO was in full uniform. While he did not make the Academy this year he did receive an AFROTC scholarship. There is no way he would have worn anything else!

    Clothing/uniforms for AFROTC?

    Unless I am missing something there is no Air Force clothing on that website.

    Clothing/uniforms for AFROTC?

    DS is fortunate, the x-town is only 3 miles away. The det called after DS sent an email asking a couple of questions. I was able to talk to them when they called. He said 1/3 come from Marquette, 1/3 from MSOE, and 1/3 from UW Milwaukee. He also said the cadets are good about car pooling to...

    Clothing/uniforms for AFROTC?

    Yikes! That must have been scary. I have duplicate certified birth certificates but of coarse only 1 social security card. I will take these items with us when we go tour the det. Thanks to everyone for the advise!

    Clothing/uniforms for AFROTC?

    He has his qualification from DoDMERB for AFROTC and USAFA, I assume that is what you mean? I believe the PFT is taken in September shortly after school starts?

    Clothing/uniforms for AFROTC?

    Pima, we are going to go to the det at the end of June. DS contacted the det a week or so ago and they suggested coming up end of June early July to see the det and get any questions answered. Since the det is at a different school we have not been there yet. It is one of those "cross town"...

    Clothing/uniforms for AFROTC?

    Ok. What does it mean to be contracted? DS is going on 4 year scholarship. I realize he has to maintain certain grades and pass the PFT but that is all I know.

    Clothing/uniforms for AFROTC?

    Thanks Pima! I thought we/he would have to buy because of the way the Academy does their uniforms, but I'm sure they have way more items there. They don't need boots then as a C100? Just trying to figure out what all he will need for ROTC and for his dorm room too. August will be here...

    Clothing/uniforms for AFROTC?

    I'm not sure what the correct terminology is for the clothing, fatigues I think, but what does ROTC require and how is it paid for for Air Force ROTC?

    I believe it was posted on here somewhere that the prep/falcon scholars would not be done until the end of April.
