Affordability of Aviation Colleges

One of my main problems with USAF is that I won’t get to pursue my other interests in such a way Ill otherwise be able to. Even before I decided on Flight, my main focus was to try to get into a really competitive top school. My choice WAS Brown. This is because they allow you to try and take specific courses and allow you to explore your interests good in a still academically competitive environment. That’s why right now in high school, I’m trying to take as many AP courses from basically every subject. I hope, in college, to continue to excel and keep trying things from every subject. For example, this year I’m doing calc 1+2 and next year calc 3 + linear algebra. In this way, I’m already super ahead in math. I don’t know if being in the air force will allow me to continue to try subjects and continue exploring. If it does, it may not do it in a competitive, rigorous environment. Or maybe it will. These are my assumptions after very little research and it’s highly likely these assumptions are dead wrong
