    I can't stand this forum

    Finally someone said it. Personally, this forum has been helpful in understanding the admissions process, even though the only helpful advice has been coming from ALOs, BGOs, etc. It's shameful that a forum oriented around what is supposed to be a large organization structured by honor...

    Introduction from a hopeful!

    Your application looks great. Your shuttle run is high but you have plenty of time to get it down. Try sweeping your hand across the line instead of coming to a full stop if you haven't already, this helped me shave just under a half a second off my time. Also, you'll find your experience in...

    I got a bad first-term report card, does USAFA require to see that in this time of the process?

    If you receive an appointment, USAFA will require you to submit your 7th and 8th semester transcripts. I feel for you and hopefully it won't affect whether you get an appointment or not. Good luck and hopefully you can finish out the year strong!

    Got accepted but medical waiver was denied. What now?

    Disclaimer: I'm a co 28' applicant as well and not apart of admissions or in the medical field, but the answer to your questions are no and no. Right now you're being evaluated to see if you meet the basic medical requirements for the branch you're trying to get into. If you wanted to fly, you...

    Having to retake the CFA

    I'm only an applicant and I'm by no means informed as some as to how admissions does things, but from a logical standpoint, all that matters is that right now you can run a 6:33 mile. I personally don't see why you running a 9:42 before really matters, the admissions team understands that people...

    DoDMERB Medical Status

    In my case it meant that they needed additional medical information (AMI) to make a determination (DQ or Q).

    New March 31st deadline?

    I saw that the IT department at USNA acknowledged that it was a mistake, but I want to point out that sometimes academies do move deadlines without notifying applicants. For example, USAFA moved its November deadline this year back 14 days because so many applicants weren't getting their stuff...

    USAFA Summer Seminar 2024

    The email you received linking you to the new portal was sent out to all applicants and even cadets at USAFA presumably by accident, basically anyone who had opened an application on the old portal. I assume the new portal will be used for the class of 2029 cycle.

    2028 State Nominations Thread

    Congratulations on your daughter's nomination! Love to see GA-03 making its way onto this forum. Thanks for the info, I saw my nomination from Ferguson in my USNA portal on Monday, but nothing in my USAFA portal. However, I've seen that USAFA and USMA like to take longer to submit nomination...

    Seventh Semester Grades

    I asked Team Blue this question earlier this month and they told me that they will request a seventh semester transcript once you get an appointment.

    Application Feedback - Negative or Positive :)

    Thanks for the advice! My SAT score does have me on edge a little, especially since I won't be able to retake it for this admissions cycle, but I'll definitely retake it again if I don't get in this year.
