Air Force ROTC Learning Community
Cadets in the Air Force ROTC program find that the Air Force ROTC Learning Community is an ideal opportunity to make friends quickly and form strong bonds with other cadets while still being part of the diverse community. Community members have the option to live with other ROTC cadets in McDonald Hall, which allows members to share common experiences in and out of the classroom.
What is Air Force ROTC? | An in-college program dedicated to training future Air Force officers. Upon graduation, cadets are commissioned as active duty 2nd Lieutenants in the United States Air Force. Learn more about ROTC

About the Community
Air Force ROTC Learning Community students have the opportunity to live in a diverse population in McDonald Hall along with other highly ambitious and motivated students who are members of other Learning Communities. Students work, live and hangout together to ease the transition to college life, while supporting each other throughout the ROTC program.
Residential Requirements
Students who are members of the Air Force ROTC Learning Community are not required to live within the community but it is an added benefit to the program. If you choose to live in the community, you can choose to room with someone who is a member of the program -or- you can choose a roommate who is not a member.
McDonald Hall
Centrally located and steps away from the Bowen-Thompson Student Union and the Jerome Library, McDonald Hall is a traditional residence hall and houses classrooms and faculty/staff offices. Amenities include an art studio, music room, study area, computer lab, laundry on each floor and a full community kitchen.
How to Apply
Each community has a set of residence hall rooms specifically designated for them. To sign up for one of these rooms, you must apply, and be accepted into the community, prior to April 25, 2018. To ensure your chance to live in the community, please complete the following steps:
- Complete your housing application
- Apply here and login with your BGSU username and password
- Click on Add a New Community Enrollment Request and choose your desired community and academic year/term
Please Note: Students can apply only for two communities on their own. If you want to apply to more than two communities, please contact the additional communities you are interested in so they can apply for you. If you have applied for two and change your mind, go into the system and withdraw yourself from the one(s) you are no longer interested in. This will open up a space for you again.
After you have submitted your request to join a community, you will receive an email from the community director approving your request. When it’s time for you to select your room in the next phase, you will be able to view and select rooms within the designated community space in the community’s residence hall. For example, if you choose to join the Chapman Learning Community, you will select a room in Kohl Hall.
