This is an intensified training period where you receive additional leadership training, attend numerous career orientations, and learn firsthand about Air Force life. We pay all your transportation costs and provide you with all necessary uniform items. You will also be paid a salary equal to about half the monthly pay of a second lieutenant while you are there. During the summer after your junior year, you may volunteer to participate in this program. You will have the opportunity to observe and work in a career field of your choice on an active Air Force base for two to three weeks to learn the challenges of being a junior officer.
Transportation is provided to and from all training.
You will receive pay and travel allowance while participating in this program. Applications are accepted the fall of your junior year. Cadets are given the opportunity to attend other programs in the summer if they desire. There are two very popular programs at the United States Air Force Academy. Soaring is a two-week glider training program that allows cadets to earn their solo wings.
