Gain the confidence to Achieve
You're capable of anything. That's why our leadership training will push you further,
set your sights higher, and help you achieve everything you want to achieve. Air Force ROTC is
where you'll hone your strengths and develop new ones.
Some benefits that I have gained from ROTC is the responsibility that I had to learn from the first day in the program, not only for myself but also the people around me. Additionally, I have made some of my best friends that hold similar goals and aspirations. These friends, and fellow cadets, push me to be the best version of myself both physically and mentally.
Home to all of Indiana’s cadets
Air Force ROTC Detachment 215 hosted at Indiana University Bloomington maintains a crosstown agreement with Indiana University–Indianapolis (IUI) and Butler University. This means we offer IUI and Butler students the same excellent Air Force ROTC training and experience.
Cadets studying at IUI and Butler attend Leadership Lab and an Aerospace Studies course on the IU Bloomington campus.
