<p>Over spring break, we went to Arizona to look at 3 schools --UofA, ASU and ASU Poly. We stopped in and spoke with the folks at U of A about the rotc program and scholarships. It was a very interesting of the 60 freshman entering this past year only 5 were on scholarship. Four had a four year and one had a three year, all were tech majors. </p>
<p>They told us that fewer cadets are being offered contracts after their Sophomore year to go to field training. And not many are getting in college scholarships. (the AF is downsizing)</p>
<p>The Major and Det. CC we spoke with both were “but your S is very competive for AFA.” The major was a grad himself even joked that he wouldn’t be able to get in to AFA now. </p>
<p>The thing that most surprised us was that our S really would not be able to play club sports and be in rotc. The rotc unit expects that you will be able to take on leadeship roles within the unit and with the sports schedule (lax/hockey) you would not really be able to do that.</p>
