Do you get paid to go to the Air Force Academy?
In addition to charging no tuition to attend classes, as well as no room and board, cadets are paid 35% of the base pay for a Second Lieutenant. This would figure out to be roughly $960 per month, however due to expenses such as paying for uniforms and other services automatically subtracted from cadet pay, cadets generally receive between $250 and $400 per month. Cadets are also given a daily food allowance for each day, however it is only received by the cadet when on leave away from the Academy; this money is usually routed directly to Mitchell Hall, the cadet dining facility.

How do you get into air force academy after basic training?
Basic Military Training is initial accession training for Enlisted Air Force Personnel. The Air Force Academy is a school for commissioned officers, and as such, after first getting accepted to the Air Force Academy, you must still go through Basic Cadet Training. If you plan on attending the Academy and have the ability to get accepted, I strongly recommend not entering enlisted basic training, as I have heard some graduates joke about how they went through 5 different Basic Trainings: Enlisted Basic, Academy Preparatory School (Where almost all prior enlisted cadets must spend a year before even beginning their 4 years at the Academy) Basic, Air Force Academy Basic, and then twice through the Academy Basic as cadre/instructors. The Air Force Academy application is a long process which includes writing samples, academic resumes, interviews, as well as medical examinations and physical fitness testing. The process of interviews, essays, and resumes is also repeated to acquire a Congressional Nomination to attend. For more specific information on this process, contact an Admission Liaison Officer.
