Subject: AFROTC Accepting New Students

It's registration time again and if you have at least six semesters of college left, the Air Force may have a worthwhile job waiting for you after college.

See www.AFROTC.com for other eligibility requirements, available career fields, and our In-College Scholarship Programs.

Serving in the Air Force can range from a good starting point for your lifetime goals to a career of 20 years or more, to something in between. Taking the initial AFROTC classes for elective credit towards your degree does not commit you to military service.

You can make that decision after you learn a little about the Air Force and leadership.

Register for AERO 1110 (Freshmen) or AERO 2110 (Sophomores) this Fall to see what it's like!

Classes are at the Bowling Green State University campus Tuesday afternoons from 2:00pm-2:50pm (Sophomores) or 3:00-3:50pm (Freshmen) followed by a combined Leadership Laboratory from 4:00pm-5:50pm.

Physical Training is at the University of Toledo's Recreation Center on Monday and Wednesday mornings 6:45am-7:45am except for the first and last weeks of each semester. Please call AFROTC Detachment 620 at 419-372-2176 if you have any questions!
