[Eecs_phd] AFROTC FY18 1-Year Technical Scholarship Program

[Hunter, Tiffany]

I'm reaching out to you to see if you might have some students that are interested in commissioning into the United States Air Force. Above and beyond what AFROTC is currently offering, we are also offering a one year opportunity / scholarship for students with technical degrees.


DISCUSSION:

1. AFROTC is currently 100 technical majors short of program guidance letter requirements for FY18. In order to attract more technical majors, AFROTC is authorizing a 1-Year EXPRESS Technical Scholarship program in conjunction with the FY18 1-Yr program to increase the number of technical major commissionees in Fiscal Year (FY) 2018.



2. The goal of AFROTC's 1-Year EXPRESS Technical Scholarship program is to incentivize 100 NEW highly qualified students to pursue future careers as United States Air Force Officers who will graduate and commission in FY18. The program includes students working on their graduate degrees or undergraduate technical degrees who can commission in FY18. For Graduate students, either their undergrad or graduate degree must be in a technical major.

3. The scholarship will be a Type 1 scholarship. The scholarship will pay for online courses provided the online courses are part of the technical degree or is required for the cadet to be a full-time student. Cadets may only take online courses from a host or cross-town university since Air Force ROTC cannot pay for online courses at universities that do not have an education support agreement. If taking online courses, the scholarship will pay for the resident AS courses as well as the online courses.

Thank you for your assistance.
