Yes, there is about 3 ways they can give you training.

There is about a 3 weeks course they offer in the summer called the "Powered flight academy" which basically gives you flight lessons for about 3 weeks so you can do your solo.

Then they have a glider training academy which is basically the same thing as above except its gliders. The third way is with your squadron, which can offer a total of 5 hours of training, not really much just sorta like orientation flights.

Maybe I came off the wrong way , There is nothing I love more than flying, its just one of my neighbors works as a cargo pilot for UPS and he has a nice house and a Porsche, so I kinda got the impression that "wow i get paid like that for doing something I like? maybe I should look into it etc."

Anyway, thanks for the advice, Im going to start looking into other colleges with an AFROTC.
