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. 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.
Deadline is February 3rd for MAJCOM A1s to submit packages. Please be aware that MAJCOM A1s may establish their own timelines to ensure they meet this deadline.
Look out for specific guidance from your respective MAJCOM around November/December each year.
Professional Officer Course-Early Release Program (POC-ERP)
POC-ERP is an avenue for RegAF Airmen to attend college in order to finish earning their baccalaureate degree. The POC-ERP allows Airmen with no more than two (2) years of college remaining to apply for early release from the RegAF to pursue a commission through AFROTC. Selected applicants attend college full time at universities offering AFROTC.
