<p>Hey, I'm currently a freshman in college, approaching my second semester of school. I am a mechanical engineering major and have had an interest for the past few month about joining rotc. I think it would be awesome to work on planes and be an engineer in the air force. However, I am uncertain if this is really what I want to do. Anyone have any helpful advice of what I should do, in order to make the right decisison?</p>
<p>As always, thanks</p>
<p>Think of your reasons for joining the program and decide if they're still be motivation 3 years after college.
Like, if you're joining simply to wear a uniform and feel B.A. then its probably not right for you.</p>
<p>But if you see it as a good career path or a good beginning step to a future civilian career, a good source of income and/or you really want to serve your country and/or better yourself as a leader and as a person, then I would at least check it out.</p>
<p>Oh and in case you didn't know their is no actual commitment until your junior year when you begin the P.O.C. portion of the AFROTC curriculum.</p>
<p>But yeah, if you need any other info just check out afrotc.com.</p>
