Orientation is a great opportunity for you to meet your classmates, get to know detachment leadership, complete required application paperwork, and ask any further questions about AFROTC. This is a voluntary event; however, your attendance is highly encouraged to make sure you have all of your requirements taken care of before classes begin!
Check-in for Detachment 670 will start at 8:45 a.m. in 320 Thatcher Hall, and continue in the Classroom Building. If there is a change to this information, it will be announced on the AERO 1111 Canvas page no later than August 12th. More detailed information for the day will also be available in Canvas. Please review the list below of required documents that you need to bring with you. All documents (birth certificate, SSN card, etc.) must be the originals; we’ll make copies and the originals will be returned to you!
Update: We will be hosting a quick NSOP pre-brief on August 1st at 4PM(CST). It is optional, it does not count as NSOP itself, but allows you a chance to talk real time with us and make sure you have everything ready to go. Zoom link below!
