If you have a Type-2 AFROTC scholarship but your tuition exceeds the $9000-per-semester scholarship, can you convert it to a Type-7 that covers full instate tuition instead? DS just got his fall tuition bill and the college raised tuition this year and the Type-2 no longer covers it in full...

I wanted to ask if it would be worth joining AFROTC. I am getting off of my small dosage of prozac in roughly a week. Last year I had to deal with some life issues and was prescribed the antidepressant for some anxiety. I was wondering what circumstances this would be waiverable in, if possible...

Hi all, just to preface, the purpose of this post is gathering your thoughts and opinions on my situation and what you would do if you were in my shoes and if you have seen similar experiences or have been through the same experience. This is not me asking what are my chances, this is purely an...

I was recently awarded a type 1 AFROTC scholarship and acceptance to USAFA pending on my DODMERB. I reported that i had a minor peanut allergy, and I am trying to go through the waiver process. I went to an allergist just to see how severe my allergies are and I have a “moderate/high” allergy to...

Hello, I was recently not selected for either an AROTC or AFROTC scholarship. However, I am still very interested in the programs and what they have to offer. I am in need of some guidance on how I should proceed at this point. I am currently a senior in high school who is graduating in about...

Hello, I am in AFROTC and will be competing in the rated board for a pilot slot this spring. I was put on MRS last semester for an ingrown toenail surgery. In early January I was released from MRS but unfortunately, the injury did not fully heal and I will be getting another surgery to get it...

Hello everyone! Thank you so much for stopping by my post. So currently I am attending AFROTC with my girlfriend and I am currently in AS200 but she is in AS100. We've been dating for 5 years and did long distance for a year so I would consider it is pretty serious?.. Because of that 1 year...

Looking for opinion and advice on non-typical situation. My daughter did some counceling and zoloft for about 4 months due to covid isolation limiting class / social life. As things opened up she was fine and the doctor considered the “mood disorder” resolved and took her off the medication...

(Repost because I can’t find the OP) Hello everyone, I’m an incoming freshman with an AFROTC J-100 scholarship at my college. I have achieved the General Ira Eaker award in CAP and 3 years of AFJROTC in HS (I was awarded full 4 year credit because I took numerous JROTC classes my Senior...

I was just reading that while being a cadet through AFROTC I'll be assigned an inactive enlisted rank. It is said that this is based upon varying levels of experience, like Civil Air Patrol or JROTC. I wasn't involved with but I am an Eagle Scout. So this brought up two questions, 1) is there a...

I am joining AFROTC on a type-1 this upcoming fall and need a qualifying DoDMERB to contract of course. The only remedial I have remaining on my DoDMERB is a “history of headaches that affected my performance or required prescription medication within the last two years”, which is almost the...

Hello all, I'm currently preparing to attend NSI and do NROTC at Boston College, but was also awarded an AFROTC foreign language major Type 2 scholarship, so ~60k a year for three years with a tuition of ~200k. Obviously, the Navy makes more sense financially (full tuition all 4 years), and I...

I haven’t seen any mention of this so far and I’ve used this forum for SA and ROTC stuff quite awhile. Recently, I was honored to receive a J-100 Character-In-Leadership scholarship. For those of you who are unfamiliar with what that is; Gen Goldfein, before he retired, wanted a scholarship...

Hello all, I just received an AFROTC type 7 scholarship as a foreign language major. I'm wondering, can I only switch between languages within my foreign language major, or can I also switch to a non-technical major? If I must stick with a foreign language, can I double major in college (i.e...

Hi, I did not receive an AFROTC HSSP scholarship. I was wondering if statistics such as the amount of scholarships awarded, average ACT score of scholarship recipients, etc. would ever be released. Just interested to see if anything changed due to the different circumstances in 2020-21. Thanks

As a companion to @Jarhead713 's thread about AROTC, I am a current AS200 (Sophomore) in the AFROTC program on an HSSP scholarship. Ask me anything*! *Don't ask me about the PGL/PGM. If you think waiting on a scholarship is bad, I don't even know if I have a slot to commission or not.

Joining the military has always been something that has interested me, and I would like to try out AFROTC in college. I plan on going to Purdue University to study engineering next fall. In order to participate in the engineering honors program, you must be located in that dorm, called a...
