Quick facts
About this program
AFROTC at University of Maine runs as Detachment 335 University of Maine (Det 335), an officer-accessions detachment for the U.S. Air Force and U.S. Space Force.
Partner schools — Husson University and Eastern Maine Community College — round out the corps. The detachment runs one training schedule for the consortium, so a cross-town cadet sees the same cadre and contracting boards as a host-school student.
Most contracted cadets at Detachment 335 University of Maine ride a national scholarship — AFROTC HSSP Type 1 (full tuition) for the high-school awards, plus on-campus side-loads for college programmers. University of Maine is academically strong in business and political science, which is well-aligned with the services' branching priorities.
