If you’re interested in pursuing a college degree, the Air Force ROTC program gives Airmen scholarships to attend school and training to become an Air Force Officer at the same time. It’s available at nearly 1000 colleges and universities across the country, offering one- to four-year scholarships to high school and college students with outstanding academic and leadership qualities. The Air Force ROTC program allows students to have the normal college experience while earning money for school and preparing to be an officer in the Air Force upon graduation.

Scholarship recipients receive partial or full tuition, as well as a nontaxable monthly stipend. Many colleges also offer an additional subsidy for tuition, fees and books to ROTC cadets.
