Airman Scholarship & Commissioning Program (ASCP)
ASCP offers RegAF enlisted personnel the opportunity to earn a commission while completing their bachelor’s degree as an AFROTC cadet. Applicants must have completed a minimum of 12 but no more than 30 graded credit hours toward degree. Scholarships range from two (2) to four (4) years in length. Applicants must be under 31 as of 31 December of the year of commissioning. Participants receive payment for tuition and scholarship fees, an annual textbook allowance, and a monthly stipend when the scholarship is activated. AFROTC scholarships do not pay for room and board costs.
Scholarships For Outstanding Airmen And Guardians To ROTC (SOAR)
SOAR allocates scholarship quotas to MAJCOMs, FLDCOMS, field operating agencies, SF Elements, and direct-reporting units for outstanding Airmen and Guardians. If qualified and selected by the AFROTC board, Airmen and Guardians receive scholarships to a college or university offering AFROTC for a period ranging from three (3) to four (4) years. Applicants must have completed a minimum of 12 but no more than 30 graded credit hours toward degree. Applicants must also be under 31 years of age as of 31 December of the calendar year in which they will commission. Commanders are encouraged to seek out their strongest performers with exceptional potential, motivating them to complete college degrees and be commissioned through AFROTC. RegAF and SF personnel are discharged from active duty and enlisted in the AFR-Obligated Reserve Section to accept the scholarships and enroll in AFROTC.
