122 Interdisciplinary Studies Reserve Officer Training Corps (ROTC) Air Force Cedarville College cooperates with Wright State University in offering Air Force Reserve Officer Training Corps instruction which prepares students for commissioning as second lieutenants in the United States Air Force. While all courses are taken through the College, leadership laboratories and classes for the junior and senior years are taught at Wright State University, the site of the area Air Force ROTC detachment. Transportation is provided by the College. The four-year program is divided into two phases: the General Military Course involving the freshman and sophomore years and the Professional Officer Course involving the junior and senior years. Freshman and sophomore general military courses are open to everyone interested in registering for the courses. No commitment to the Air Force is required. Students enrolled in the Professional Officer Course are on contract with the government and therefore receive $100 per month subsistence allowance. Scholarships covering the cost of tuition, fees, textbooks, and a $100 monthly allowance for two and three years are available on a competitive basis to students who demonstrate academic and leadership potential. A one-year scholarship is also available for graduate law and undergraduate nursing students. Scholarship availability is greatest in the areas of math, computer science, physics, engineering, nursing, and premedicine. Traditionally, about half of Cedarville cadets are able to win scholarships.
