Usually flying and parachute programs are entirely voluntary...and are competitive to get into. Now, if you mean ''will I be required to pilot an aircraft?'' the answer is probably not. If you mean, ''Will I be required to fly somewhere?'' the answer is yes.
The Academy is a college. You will get your B.S. degree ...

Posting in the Air Force Academy section will help...
Your grades are a bit low (avg. is a 3.8), but you have taken tough classes, which might help a little. Do you have much leadership in your extracurriculars? That is important. Your sports and E.C.s look good, but leadership and test scores are also important (can you list ...

AFROTC usually graduates about 1200 people each year and usually recieves 400-500 pilot slots (last number I heard). The number of pilot slots differs each year, according to the needs of the AF. When you select what track (fighter/bomber, heavy, helo) and when you select which airframe, the numbers are, again, based on the needs of the
