I am currently a college freshman and a participant in the ROTC program at my university. I have not yet gone to basic, therefore I am not a traditional cadet as of yet. I've told my instructor my interest in branching aviation as well as going active once I've graduated and received my commissioned. He told me that branching aviation is difficult, and I'm willing to work towards this goal. The main question I have is if I branch aviation, pass all the test, and get accepted and complete flight school what are the 160th's requirements to join their ranks as a pilot as a commissioned officer?

First and foremost, set your goals on the near future. Guys that fly 160th normally have thousands of hours and several deployments under their belts. Not to say that newbs don’t get in but it’s very rare. Focus on being an outstanding cadet and work on assessions point; strive to become DMG and overall, do well at leadership. Short term success will lead to long term success!

What branch of ROTC are you in? Army has opps for helos, Air Force much higher percent of officers go to flight school. Navy aviation is an option as well. All require top qualifications

The hand pick their crews, you do not just volunteer. They take the cream of the crop with lots of flight time and experience.
