Here's my take on Web Guy. We had a 2018 grad and at the time we paid $20.18 per month for access to Web Guy. I'm not sure if the AOG called it the "Family Plan" and the lifetime membership in the AOG at that time. Shortly after the Doolie year we thought we would stop paying the monthly fee and...

Yes, my DS is in Hellcats. Report time 1130-1145

yes, just put them with your phone until A-Day.

My guess is that they will send out the squadron and PO Box information soon. The actual report time on I-day is correlated to your squadron. I've never heard of them not giving out the PO Box/address information after arrival. I think what the bigger issue is the travel information for those...

Have any 2026 appointees received information regarding their PO box, I-day reporting time, squadron, etc.?

Here's my two cents. My DS was in D&B for all four years. It is a HUGE time commitment. He was able to travel to various places and had a great time. We had to adjust Thanksgiving since he had to be at USAFA for football games. He did have friendships that were very strong since they were...

How does USAFA determine pilot slots? Does the major factor in? What about PPL prior to starting at USAFA?

According to the USAFA calendar, the swearing in is scheduled for June 24th. Of course there is always a possibility for changes.

I forgot to also mention that eight years ago today my other son received his appointment to USAFA (2018 grad). March 20th is a great day in our family.

My DS got a appointment decision in his portal this morning! Good luck everyone.

I understand that a majority of the appointments get released in March. I was just curious for those that are already getting appointments,. Are many of these early appointments individuals recruited athletes, high SAT/ACT scores, high GPA, etc?

Was your DS/DD a recruited athlete?
