New Student Orientation Program

The New Student Orientation Program (NSOP) is a voluntary four-day program held for any students interested in participating in Air Force ROTC at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute. Students must either attend RPI or one of the cross-town schools that allow students to enroll in AFROTC at RPI. This program is an introduction to the AFROTC program as a whole, and gives students a "head start" on the semester. It is not mandatory to attend NSOP to enroll in AFROTC.

NSOP will be held this fall before RPI's Navigating Rensselaer and Beyond events, from 17 August to 20 August.

Registration forms and other important materials are located on the Documents page.

If you have any questions, or are interested in registering for NSOP, please contact us at 518.276.6236 or email afrotc@rpi.edu.
Please put "ATTN: NSOP" in the subject line of your emails.
