As an Officer of the Air Force, what is the day to day commitment and how long is your contract?

Also, can you realistically attend college and pursue higher degrees while in college?

Officers have to serve a minimum of 6 years active and 2 years in the IRR (Inactive Ready Reserve). There is no "day to day commitment", it's 6 years. Once the time is up, you can resign your commission, or continue your service.
Can you "realistically" persue higher education? Yes. You just have to keep in mind that you will be working full time, sometimes on weekends, and that your military commitment takes precedence.

Your commitment is 6 years. You have to be available 24/7 except for 30 days leave per year. Realistically, you will have a 40 hour work week with occasional weekend duty.

As an officer,you have 100" total commitment to the Air Force. You raised your hand/signed the document. Abide by it!

Four years active and Four years non active.
In about 2 years i apply for the Health Scholarship Program (REALLY HOPE I CAN GET IT) and then I can go onto med school as a Captain in the Air Force.
I have fingers crossed and I REALLY AM PRAYING.
So you should do the same and STUDY YOUR BUTT OFF. Best of LUCK!

Depends usually about 4 years for any branch. Army offers less as does navy & all offer up to six. THe more you do the more signing bonus you get though.. :) money money money...
