Commander's Welcome

Welcome to AFROTC Detachment 645 at The Ohio State University where our mission is to develop quality leaders for the Air Force. The Reserve Officer Training Corps, through intense training and course work, opens the door for entry into the finest Air Force in the world. Our cadets have gone on to serve in a range of career fields, from medical to aviation.

We offer cadets an ideal training environment that instills the values of integrity, service before self, and excellence that develop leaders, and power the world’s strongest Air Force.

These values, coupled with the surroundings of a large accredited university, help to develop the type of well rounded officers the Air Force is seeking. Cadets are exposed to numerous activities and organizations that reach out to the local community while strengthening the skills necessary to benefit their careers in the military.

We offer scholarships for a range of academic programs, open to both high school and college students who excel in academics and display the leadership potential that the U.S Air Force is looking for. We welcome you to AFROTC Detachment 645 and look forward to assisting you on your flight into the United States Air Force.
