I've recently been awarded an AFROTC type 2 4-year scholarship. This month is the 24th month that I've been taking ADD medication (so if I discontinue the medication prescription for next month, I'll be eligible for an ADHD waiver). I'm valedictorian of my high school, and I had straight A's...

My DS recieved a 4 year/Type 7 AFROTC scholarship, but it does not list to which school. He ranked his preferences and was admitted to all three. Is he supposed to contact the school AFROTC Unit or how does this work?

So I failed my PFA(Physical Fitness Assessment) this semester for AFROTC. My first semester I passed with an 80 something. This semester though I haven't had as much time to workout as I would like and I failed the PFA by like 6 pushups, only doing like 27 when min was 33 or something. Now I...

Hi all, I was wondering if anyone had any insights on the average time gap between when AFROTC cadets commission and when they have to report for their first duty for non-rated 2d Lts (more specifically for 62X, 63X if possible). I'd hate to idle around for 2+ summer months and would like to...

I'm debating on whether I should go to Virginia Tech or and in-state public college. Much of my decision depends on if I can get a scholarship while not being medically qualified. In other words, do I need to be medically qualified by the year I attend LEAD or the perspective field training...

So I have a question regarding a possible asthma and allergies DQ. When I was 6 years old until shortly after I turned 9 years old, I saw an allergy-immunologist who initially diagnosed me with allergic rhinitis and intrinsic asthma. During the ages mentioned, I was taking an inhaled steroid for...

Hi all, I just got accepted for a 4 year type 7 AFROTC scholarship. I am now deciding between AFROTC and AROTC, where I also have a 4 year scholarship. More than anything I want to be a pilot. From the research I have done so far AF is the way to go for that. I know I have to perform well in...

Hello all, newbie here. I applied for and received an AFROTC 4-year Type 7 scholarship through the High School Scholarship Program (I am a senior this year), and have been waiting on my waiver (portal has said "pending waiver submission/review" for about a month now). My specific DQ code has to...

A Captain from cadre said the recent acceptance of the new one and two year programs in the AFROTC have greatly impacted this years EAs (Enrollment Allocations). Only -roughly- 40% of FTPs (Field Training Preparation) will be selected for this summer's Field Training, a large contrast to last...

Hi, I believe I have a very good chance of getting a type 2 AFROTC scholarship, maybe even a type 1. My application is going to the board this Monday. My listed majors are Computer Science and Chemistry. Since my friend is an East Asia Studies major with a Chinese scholarship (she just takes...

Hi, I am in a bit of a pickle with my scholarships. As for the Air Force, I have received a type 7 and I live in Washington so I would use it at UW. However, I received a full 4 year scholarship from the Army to my top three schools. If I were to go Army then I would go to University of San...

About a year and a half ago I had a spontaneous pneumothorax (in short, it was caused by my height and high growth rate). I had surgery to fix it and so far everything has been perfectly fine, I’m fit, play sports, and according to the Major I interviewed with I would have passed the PFT with...

So as college creeps closer and closer approaching my Senior year I've started to pin down what I want to do in college. Sadly, since I had no idea the importance of school until last year (thanks, rebellious 14 years old me) I am in terrible standing GPA wise (if I finish this year with a 4.0 I...

I am a junior in high school in Massachusetts and I have been looking into Naval Aviation (pilot), wether fixed-wing or rotor, and I am just curious as to how tough it is to get a commission into aviation? I am not interested in USMC aviation and am open to AF aviation (through afrotc)...

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...
