Jesse; I was told that I had my freshman year without any commitment requirements. However I had to commit on the first day of sophomore year and I wouldn't know the status of flying until like my senior year. She went on to say that IF I didn't get a slot, my commitment required 4 years of other active Air Force service. Keep in mind I was paying for college. You've basically vindicated my entire reason for posting this! Not that recruiter is going to lie to you but......
She may have well been straight with you; why push you to not stay in, right? Back when I was in ROTC I didn't sign the line which is dotted until 1 week before graduation. My circumstances were not standard, however. But what did stand out was they told USAF ROTC students what they were going to get before the signed up whereas ARMY ROTC students found out after commissioning what they were getting (Transportation Corps, Armour, Air Cav, Chemical Corps, Infantry, etc.). That made Army a no-go for me.
