See Det cadre for further information. Items can be purchased at base facilities at relatively low costs with no state sales tax. Cadets are not allowed to use the base commissary. Categorization Categorization is a way for Air Force ROTC to assign cadets to certain career specialty areas. Selection to the categories usually occurs in Spring of the AS300 year and takes Air Force needs, GPA and cadet preferences, qualifications and performance into account.
Officer candidates pursue any accredited degree.
This category is the largest and includes the largest number of Air Force specialties in both technical and non-technical areas. Although technical degrees are required for many technical specialties, students with technical majors aren't necessarily guaranteed to receive technical jobs. Non-line categorizations can occur in any AS year. Qualified students in any accredited degree program may apply. Scholarships Depending upon Air Force needs, available Air Force ROTC scholarship funds and cadet qualifications and performance, some cadets may win college scholarships.
