Hi,
I'm new but have been stalking this website for months now. I am really out of options as my plan B has crumbled due to other circumstances and my plan C is very expensive especially for the financial situation that my family is in but nonetheless, I have yet to find a post like this one hence why I am asking it.
I have not heard a SINGLE thing from the academy, my ALO, or my nomination source. I am qualified in all three categories and have a senatorial nomination (even though I know that doesn't assure me for an appointment) and just need to know whether my plan C needs to become my plan A as it the end of March and I haven't received anything yet.
From my point of view, if the academy really wanted me, they would've told me by now and therefore should be expecting a white envelope within the next few days. Is this incorrect to think since the standard time for appointments is "anywhere between March and April"? I understand that I am not completely out of the game but the waiting game is really getting to the few thousand of us left who haven't heard a single thing (I think even the crickets packed up and went home).
I don't know if my case is different because I live in Colorado which is the most competitive state. From the USAFA 2022 thread, I have only noticed around four or five appointments being from CO (none of them senatorial) and wonder if they just haven't charged the slot yet for my senator but it's so late in the game that I definitely don't think that's it.
I apologize for my ranting but I really just need some advice from someone who is more of an expert than I am. I mean, I even went to USAFA Summer Seminar and I have all these cool things that make me super "qualified" but feeling this left in the dark just sucks. So I'm asking what I should do. Should I call my senator and ask him if he's heard anything... at all? I already emailed my ALO and my counselor from USAFA and have heard absolutely nothing so I'm at a dead end there. Should I be expecting my rejection and therefore follow through with a different plan by now? Should I just crawl up into a ball and just cry and hope that fixes everything?
