Reserve Officer Training Corps (ROTC)

Enrollment in the Air Force Reserve Officer Training Corps (AFROTC) gives undergraduates and selected graduate students the opportunity to combine academic study with a professional military officer education program. AFROTC allows students to earn a college degree while serving their country, balancing a typical college lifestyle with military training to develop quality citizens and premier leaders of character.

Training, Discipline and Honor

The Air Force ROTC program is offered to Regis University students in a cross-town agreement with the ROTC headquarters at the University of Colorado Boulder. Cadets are required to drive to Boulder for AS class and LLAB once per week. Air Force ROTC programs lead to a commission in the U.S. Air Force upon receipt of your bachelor's degree.

ROTC cadets can attend any college or school within Regis University. For further details about the Air Force ROTC program, please contact the Military and Veteran Services office.

Overview of AFROTC

The Air Force Reserve Officer Training Corps (AFROTC) program is essentially a four-year interview process where the Cadre and Cadet Wing educate, train and develop you personally and professionally to become a leader and officer in the United States Air Force and Space Force.

What Makes AFROTC Unique

The main difference between AFROTC and other leadership programs is our leadership laboratory. Under the supervision of AFROTC Detachment 105 Cadre, junior and senior cadets, also known as Professional Officer Course (POC) Cadets, are provided the opportunity to lead and manage the freshman and sophomore cadets, known as General Military Course (GMC) Cadets. This provides an opportunity for cadets to learn how to follow and lead in a safe and challenging environment that demands excellence.

Program Structure

AFROTC is offered as a four-year program consisting of three components:

  • General Military Course (GMC): For freshmen and sophomores
  • Professional Officer Course (POC): For juniors and seniors
  • Leadership Laboratory: Required for all participating students

Completion of a two-week summer training program is required prior to entry into the Professional Officer Course.

Admissions and Registration

This program requires a separate admissions process outside of the Regis University admissions process. Current Regis students planning to participate in Air Force ROTC should contact Detachment 105 at 303.735.1121 or Det105@colorado.edu to get the process started.

Students can register for AFROTC courses through the Military and Veterans Services office each semester at Regis University. However, all classes are held on the CU Boulder campus and follow the CU semester calendar.
