Road to becoming an Army Pilot

[Aviationguy12]

Was interested in becoming an Army Pilot by going through ROTC. Anyone know the process to become a pilot in the Army??

Commission ROTC selects via an order of merit. There is no guarantee you will get an aviation branch specific commission.

Essentially, do good in school, do good at ROTC, get a degree in something that matters just in case, have a good and current flight medical prior to selecting your MOS, pray for the favor of the gods.

I've worked with plenty of ROTC aviation officers in my career so it's not something that doesn't happen. Also unlike say AF ROTC Aviation is the bastard stepchild amongst the combat/maneuver branches so it doesn't have the sex appeal competitiveness like say Infantry with a ranger slot.
