So now that I'm somewhat up to speed on what it means to apply for OTS, I've got a few more quick questions.
They mentioned you are the first selected and have a far better chance coming out of AFROTC. The problem is that I've already graduated college. Is it possible to go back for a second 2 year degree while joining AFROTC? I'll be 25 soon, after 2 years of college I'll be 27. That's starting to push the time limits a little bit, assuming the age cutoff is still in effect for AFROTC applicants. What are your responsiblities in the AFROTC? I had a friend in college who did this and as far as I can remember he had to do some physical fitness meetings once a month? I think he was shipped out to TX for some additional training from time to time. BTW, the kid is in pilot training right now.
The second question that came to mind after reading that is while you are taking your AFOQT, TBAS, and getting your PCSM score are you locked into the military already? The selection process is long, and if you're not selected right away you're waiting til the next year to be reviewed by the board again. What if you are never selected for a pilot slot, are you still under a contract? What's life like for an OTS hopeful? After testing and getting your ducks lined up are you just working a civilian job and waiting for interviews etc?
