Hello, Next year will, I will be beginning college as a freshman straight out of high school. I was unable to apply for an AFROTC scholarship since I couldn't meet the minimum high school GPA requirement ( I go to a very challenging prep school). My ACT scores were also too low and I don't see...

Hi all, I joined AFROTC a year and a half ago as a 250 my sophomore year. I have been awful at drill and ceremony since the start. I watched plenty of Det 088 videos, studied the drill and ceremonies manual, and made step by step guides to drill procedures to help commit them to memory. I still...

Hello All, I am a sophomore cadet currently in AFROTC not on scholarship. I originally entered college on a 4 year technical scholarship, however, I ultimately decided that a technical degree was not in my best interest academically and dropped the scholarship just before the start of this...

Hi, Just a quick question does Varsity Cheerleading not count as a sport in the Activities sheet for the AFROTC application?

Hello everyone, I received a scholarship from AFROTC earlier this year, unfortunately, I was medically disqualified for current or history of atopic dermatitis or eczema after 12th birthday. I only ever had one flare up, which occurred last year around late March/early April, and I was...

My DS has a four year ARROTC scholarship and majoring in Engineering. Looks like he might go an extra semester and the detachment has extended his "benefits". I'm wondering which benefits get extended? I thought tuition benefits were limited to four years? Is it just the stipend that is...

I am an AFROTC AS200 cadet. It seems that everyone is asking this question these days, but what do you think my chances of getting a pilot slot are? I have not gone to field training yet and I have 19 flight hours. Here are my scores: Major: Non-Tech GPA: 3.39 AFOQT Pilot: 97 Nav: 61...

Hi, I am a third year cadet looking to get a pilot slot this spring. I need a height waiver but my cadre won't give me a definite answer on what needs to be done to get one and I worry that I am going to run out of time to accomplish the tasks it will take to get one. My standing height is 61"...
