Biola University

Air Force ROTC Through arrangements with Loyola Marymount University (LMU) in west Los Angeles, and the University of Southern California (USC) students may participate in the Air Force Reserve Officer Training Corps (AFROTC) program. Aerospace Studies classes and Leadership Laboratories are conducted at various times during the week on the main campus of LMU and USC. AFROTC offers a variety of two-, three- and four-year scholarships, many of which pay the full costs of tuition, books, and fees. Successful completion of as little as four semesters of AFROTC academic classes and leadership laboratories can lead to a commission as a second lieutenant in the United States Air Force. Classes consist of one hour of academics and two hours of leadership laboratory for freshmen and sophomores; three hours of academics and two hours of leadership laboratory for juniors and seniors. AFROTC cadets under scholarship and all juniors and seniors receive a monthly tax-free stipend and textbook allowance. No military commitment is incurred until entering the last two years of the program (Professional Officer Course) or accepting an AFROTIC scholarship. For more information, contact the Department of Aerospace Studies (AFROTC) at one of the following universities: Loyola Marymount University at (310) 338-2770, or University of Southern California at (213) 740-2670.
