Air Force ROTC provides several scholarship opportunities to attend college. The Air Force ROTC college scholarship program is intended for high school seniors and graduates who have not enrolled as full-time students. The scholarship program is especially targeted to those pursuing technical degrees, although a small number of scholarships are available for those enrolling in selected non-technical programs. Air Force ROTC scholarships are awarded on individual merit, not on financial need. These scholarships cover tuition and fees, but not room and board.
Some universities do, however, provide free room and board to scholarship recipients.
The application process is the same for each scholarship type. Scholarships are offered in technical and non-technical majors. All students must have a minimum of a 2.5 cumulative GPA to apply. To apply for a scholarship, contact the Air Force ROTC detachment at your school. Pre- health Scholarship are available after one full year of college is completed.
