Air Force ROTC Rolls Out New Two-Year Program
Air Force Cadets with Big Red on Game Day.
Are you looking for a way to help pay for college? Uncertain about your future after graduation? Are you physically fit, goal-oriented, of good moral character and would like to hone your leadership skills? If so, the Air Force ROTC program wants you.
The U.S. Air Force needs officers in all job classes and so it has rolled out a new accelerated program for Reserve Officer Training Corps cadets. The reward is that upon successful completion of the program, your career as an officer in the Air Force starts directly after graduation.
Air Force ROTC is looking for seniors who can stay matriculated for two years and juniors who will be graduating by May of 2018. This offer is open to all majors and is only available for a very limited time. They seek students with a 3.0 GPA or better, but an exception could be made for the right leader.
The ROTC program is normally a minimum of 3 years, but the critical need for officers has created this special opportunity for those who fit the criteria and can graduate by May of 2018. This special program would send you to field training at an air force base between your junior and senior year. Upon the completion of all requirements, contracted cadets earn a monthly stipend which could help defer college costs and living expenses.
If interested, contact us as soon as possible so that we can answer your questions and give you all the details about the ROTC program at the University of Arkansas, rated the best small detachment in the nation in 2014. Please contact Captain Richard J. Lavery at rjlavery@uark.edu or 479-575-3651 or stop by 319 Memorial Hall no later than Friday, September 2.
