Air Force Service Requirment
Nunc est bibendum
Try this:
Note that this is for direct entry pilot and includes your initial training. Given that this takes about 18 months (67 weeks according to the web site) then you can see that the 10 years ROSO is pretty spot on.
More advice can be found here.
Of course, now that I read your question properly and see that you were after the degree stream through ADFA, add three years for the degree.
The second para available from here and then follow the links to 'officer entry', 'defence academy', 'pilot' and you'll have all the info you need.
Good luck.
Fixed Period Of Service
You will be appointed for an Initial Minimum Period of Service (IMPS) of 11.5 years. Subsequent periods of service may be offered subject to the requirements of the ADF and your suitability for further service. You may tender your resignation at any time provided you do not have an outstanding Initial Minimum Period of Service obligation and provide a minimum of three months notice.

Fixed Period Of Service
You will be appointed for an Initial Minimum Period of Service (IMPS) of 14.5 years (for those undertaking the Bachelor of Technology (Aviation) degree stream, the IMPS is 13.5 years) . Subsequent periods of service may be offered subject to the requirements of the ADF and your suitability for further service. You may tender your resignation at any time provided you do not have an outstanding Initial Minimum Period of Service obligation and provide a minimum of three months notice.
Defence Academy Entry Officers become liable to an IMPS from the graduation day of their second year of studies. This means that they may leave the Academy at any time up to the end of second year, without any obligation.

You should note that the ROSO for a degree and a ROSO for Pilots Course are served concurrently not consecutively. ie You'll end up with 10 Years ROSO from when you graduate from Pilots Course. Should you fail Pilots Course you most likely will still have to serve the appropriate ROSO for your free degree at ADFA. Hope that helps
