Sotto and Captain (Select) Ryen S. Hitzler Our Program Air Force Reserve Officer Training Corps (AFROTC) program can help you achieve your goals and give you skills and qualifications that command attention in the job market. The Air Force ROTC program at Det 850 gives you a firsthand view of the Air Force while you pursue the major of your choice. Activities include incentive rides in F-16 and other aircraft, confidence courses, leadership experiences, base tours, summer field training, physical fitness and more. ROTC has opportunities available to become pilots if your uncorrected visual acuity is no worse than 20/70 with refractive limits of +2.00/-1.50. Upon graduation, you'll be commissioned as a second lieutenant with the pride and prestige that are part of being an Air Force Officer. Four-Year Program The General Military Course (GMC) is the first half of the four- year program, and it's taken during your freshman and sophomore years. This program allows you to try Air Force ROTC for up to two years without incurring any obligation unless you're on an Air Force scholarship. You'll learn about the Air Force and the historical development of air power, and you'll attend leadership laboratories to learn the Air Force customs, courtesies, drill and ceremonies. The four-week Field Training course is normally completed on an Air Force base the summer before your junior year. You'll receive career orientation, junior officer training, aircraft and air crew indoctrination, survival training, weapons familiarization, physical training, and an orientation to the organization and function of an Air Force base. Your performance in Field Training qualifies you for entry into the Professional Officer Course (POC). The POC is the advanced Aerospace Studies curriculum and is conducted during your junior and senior years. You'll study leadership, national security strategy, aerospace doctrine, staffing, planning and coordinating, and examine actual case studies. The curriculum prepares you for an exciting career in the Air Force as a commissioned second lieutenant. Summer Programs ROTC has outstanding summer opportunities, too. The British Exchange Program, Professional Development Training (PDT), Officer Shadowing (ASSIST), Air Force Academy Basic Freefall Parachute Training (AFAFF), Air Force Academy Soaring Program (SOAR), and Combat Survival Training (CST) to name a few. STAR Two-Year Program STAR is a limited opportunity offered by the Air Force ROTC in which current college juniors with limited or no prior involvement with AFROTC are offered entrance into AFROTC and future commissioning into the USAF. Applicants must apply before age 30, but waivers may be considered. You must have at least a 2.0 term gpa, additionally, if you qualify and your term GPA is 2.35 and your cumulative GPA is 2.5 or better, you may qualify to receive an additional $2000 per academic year of AFROTC funding. You'll receive the GMC curriculum and leadership laboratory experience in a five week summer training field training course. This is usually taken the summer before your junior year, and successful completion qualifies you for entry into the POC (see above). Scholarships Four-year, three-year, and two-year scholarships are available in technical, nontechnical career fields. The needs of the Air Force dictate which scholarships will be offered each year. Most scholarships pay the majority of the tuition and textbook expenses: TYPE 1 Uncapped TYPE 2 $7500 semester $240 books POCI (TYPE 6) $1500 semester $225 books Plus, every scholarship cadet and all POC cadets receive a tax-free $200 monthly allowance. Additionally, a POC cadet may receive an incentive scholarship of $3450 per year. Scholarship winners must maintain 2.50 cum gpa for eligibility (excluding Prehealth), 2.35 term gpa for retention, and 2.00 term gpa for POCI eligibility. Receipt of an "F" or equivalent, or two "D" grades will result in a scholarship suspension.
