    Air Force ROTC RIF?

    I heard that afrotc may have a reduction in force for FY 2020 cadets. Apparently they have too many cadets for that commissioning year. Does anyone know if this is true?

    Random Pre-Commissioning Physical Question

    I'm a rising AS 400 (on a 4.5 year academic track) in Air Force ROTC and was wondering if anyone knew when I will have to do a pre-commissioning physical, and what exactly it entails. Is it anything like the DODMERB physical? Thanks.

    Countries I cant travel to?

    Are there any countries I cant travel to as a cadet? Or any that would give me serious clearance issues? I'm not talking about countries like North Korea or Iran either... I'm wondering about countries like Russia, China, countries in Central Asia, and Eastern Europe. I'm asking because I'm a...

    AFROTC Time Between Commissioning and EAD

    I have a quick question about the time people have to wait to EAD. What's the normal amount of time that somebody typically has to wait to actually start their job? I'm hoping to go intel, and I heard that intel folks can wait up to a year. Is that true? Whats's the time frame like for other...

    Studying Abroad?

    Does anyone know the process for studying abroad. If I were to study abroad for a semester, would my AFROTC scholarship cover my tuition? I'm a Russian major and I'm looking at a program in Kazakhstan. I think spending an entire semester (not just 8 weeks for project GO) abroad would be very...

    AFSC Question

    How much does field training matter for non rated AFSC selection? I didn't do well at field training and I wanted to know if I still had hopes of getting an intel slot. Any information is appreciated. Thanks.

    Space Force?

    What do you all think about president Trumps new proposal for a Space Force? Do you think it'll go anywhere this time around? I'm an Air Force cadet so do you think I need to worry about getting sucked into this new branch if it materializes (I'm supposed to commission in two and a half year)?

    Fainting incident

    So I just got back from the doctors today where I had a yearly physical done. At the doctor's they drew blood and I briefly fainted. Do I need to report this if I'm already DODMERB qualified? Also, do you think the doctor would keep a record of the incident? Thanks!

    Air Force Field Training Rumors

    So I've heard rumors that there's only going to be a 60-65 percent acceptance rate for EA slots for field training this year. I'm kind of freaking out. Has anyone else heard something similar?

    Should I retake the AFOQT?

    So I took the AFOQT this year and didn't do too well on it. I passed, but I didn't get the scores that I was hoping for. Now, if I don't want to be a pilot, does it really matter how well I did as long as I passed? I'm not too worried about getting a field training slot since I have a decent...

    Air Force SATe Question

    So the other day I stumbled across the Air Force non-rated OML breakdown for job selection. From what I saw it was SATe 25%, RSS 40%, cGPA 25%, and PFA 10%. Does this look right? I didn't know that the SATe made up such a large portion of the OML. My main question is given that the SATe is...

    Air Force Intel Question

    Does majoring in a critical language increase chances of getting an intel slot? I've heard conflicting statements. Some say major has no impact on what job you get unless you're an engineer. But my detachment CO said that it seemed like half the kids that got selected for intel were language...

    Switching Majors on an Air Force Scholarship

    I was thinking of maybe switching from my current major (physics) to a critical language (Russian). Is this typically allowed since its a switch from a tech major to a critical language major? Thanks.

    Air Force Order of Merit Breakdown

    Could somebody break down the order of merit areas into categories/percentages. This is for job selection (non rated) not for Field Training selection. Thanks.

    Acne Medication Question

    So this isn't DODMERB related, but it is a medical question. I'm a current Air Force cadet (passed DODMERB already) and was proscribed topical cream for a few pimples that sprung up. Do I need to report this to my detachment? Thanks!

    Virginia Tech Corp of Cadets Class of 2021 Q and A

    So I'm a rising sophomore in the VTCC. Iv'e been getting a lot of questions about new cadet week and life in the VTCC as a freshmen. I figure that it would be easier for me to just start a new thread where I can hopefully answer some questions. Feel free to ask me anything!

    AFROTC Non Rated OML

    Could someone give me the breakdown that they use when they decide who gets what afsc. I know that they use RSS, GPA, PT scores etc. I'm just not sure of the percentages.

    Air Force Intel Question

    I was looking at the FY17 Accessions goals for the Air Force and noticed that only 30% of selected intel officers were planned to be tech majors. I was wondering why this is? Is it that tech majors tend not to put down Intel on their wish list as much to non tech majors? Or is it for some...

    Air Force Cyber Ops Questions

    So I'm a rising AS 200 and I have been doing research into potential career fields in the Air Force. Cyber operations sounds like a really cool career field but I have a couple of questions. First off, can someone explain the difference between a 17D and 17S and how you get placed into those...
