    Best Route to UPT

    Added question

    There are so many options and I am going to re-read through all the post carefully and try to make the best decision for me and my current situation. I can express how grateful I am for everyone's input 

    Could I apply to OTS and guard/reserve for a UPT all at once after I get my 4 year degree?

    @Kiloalpha Very true. Currently, I work full time and go to school, so that could certainly help take off the "load" while putting me on the right path towards my ultimate dream and goal. Just to clarify, I could apply at anytime in my enlistment as long as I have my 4-yr degree.

    @bb17 Wow, well congratulations and thank you for your insight. I have wanted this since I was little, so I am never going to give up. As I live far away from an ROTC detachment and the chance of not being selected, ANG/AFRC seem to be a good fit. Is OTS as competitive as the ANG/AFRC.

    @bb17 Thank you so much for your information. I do like how with AFRC/ANG I will have a choice with selection of which time of aircraft. On service academy forum, I read that it can take years to obtain a spot and that one must have a ppl to become selected??

    To start out, I am sorry if this has been asked already. The search function does not seem to be working from my end and opens to a blank page. I am a freshman at a community college and I have always been very interested in becoming an officer in the military. Secondly, I have always dreamed of becoming a pilot and flying in the military and then hopefully for an airline one day. I was wondering if anyone had any recommendations on which way to go? I have researched AFROTC, ANG, and the Reserves for getting a flight spot and I am confused on which program to choose. I like how with the guard/reserves you can fly for an airline and the military concurrently at the same time. Secondly, AFROTC has a greater pilot selection rate; however, I know there is no guarantee with this path and the closest university that has a detachment is 57 miles away. I desire to serve my country and be an officer first, but I am just looking for help in weighing my options. Thank you for your help and it is greatly appreciated.

    LMU vs USC AFROTC

    Posted · Edited by pilot97

    I am looking into joining AFROTC in the fall; however, since I will be a crosstown student and I will have the option of deciding between USC (Detachment 060) and LMU (Detachment 040). I was wondering if anyone had any advice on how to pick the most suitable detachment?
