AFROTC Application Process

AFROTC Application Flow

Application data is collected from potential ROTC cadets (high school level, enlisted airmen, and college students) using an online application accessed on a web capable device.  The applicant completes an email verification process, enters contact information, and answers questions to confirm eligibility for the program.  If the applicant is not eligible, a notification of ineligibility appears, and the application is closed.  If the applicant is eligible, the entirety of the application is then available for completion. There are two paths to this application. The applicant can apply for AFROTC (with no scholarship) or apply for AFROTC through the High School Scholarship Program (HSSP). Both paths are applying for the AFROTC Program. Each path has their own checklists to work throughout the application process, as the HSSP applicant must complete additional Sections/Questions.  The applicant is notified via email regarding the receipt of a started application and given reminders of any required information that has not been submitted.  Once the applicant submits all required information and the application is reviewed by ROTC Headquarters personnel, a notification is sent to the applicant via email regarding eligibility for the ROTC Program and the High School Scholarship Program, if applicable.

APPLY FOR AFROTC
