A cadet from my detachment busted IFS and went to a board and is now in PA. But given the current state of things, I would assume your chances for being handed walking papers is a good possibility.

I put in for a rated slot and indicated a high preference for ABM and RPA. The training process for ABM is fairly straight forward, but I can't seem to find the training process for RPA pilots. I've heard RPA selects go to UPT, but do they only stay for phases 1 and 2, and leave before phase 3...

I've heard mixed responses. Last year, cadets were notified of the results on 14 Feb. I head everything between 14 Feb and 17 Feb for this year. Regardless, the anticipation is killing me so hopefully soon!

Thanks for your responses! This really helps!

In regards to the most up to date vision requirements for RPA pilot candidates, do you know where to look? Most of what I'm finding is vague. I have not had my vision surgically corrected. Is this something that needs to occur before I go up for the board? I know the AF has strict regulations...

I apologize if these questions are repetitive--I have decided to make a rather quick change of plans and could use some advice. I just received my scores from the AFOQT and while they're not incredibly outstanding, I have decided to try for a rated slot because I don't want to close any...

Yes, I would transfer to a college in a different state.

I'm sure this is in my contract but I don't have a copy with me at the moment so if anyone knows off the top of their head, I would appreciate the advice. Is it possible to transfer colleges as a POC? Currently I am a crosstown AS250 and my Det is great, but I think I would be better suited...

Latest I heard, Max 1 is 15 May - 12 June. I was told I'm in Max 1.

719Frontier, political science, 3.86 cgpa, 99.7 pfa, cr 3/14, type 2, max1.

How are your dets going to tell you if you got a slot or not? I hope it's like Oprah: You get a slot! And you get a slot! You get a slot! You all get slots! Haha

Gah sorry guys! Didnt mean to leave you hanging. Right after I got that news, my other friend told me the percentages. I should have posted them early. But anyways, my det is telling us tomorrow morning at a mandatory FTP pt session

I heard the % was high, but not as high as last year

ha i have two 20 page essays due, one tomorrow and one on the 1st, and another 12 pager due on friday...anticipating EAs is not helping with this situation.

I forgot to mention though, if you minor or double major in a language and become fluent in it, that will make you look really good on paper because you can state if you a multilingual--so long as the language is one the Air Force deems critical/essential.

Just a quick tip, when you're filling out information to join AFROTC, there is only one space to list a major when filling out the enrollment forms. They don't consider double majors, minors, etc etc. You simply list one major and that is what they go off of. At least from my experience joining...

definitely not even thinking about that right now. I'll cross that bridge if I need to after Wednesday. In fact, I'll probably give myself a week off and then start to consider it.

That's good advice Pima. My det is so small so I have a different perspective than some of the cadets from the larger dets. I hope they call us as opposed to announcing it at LLAB.

Well, that news is disheartening, but I think what is most important is to remember that whatever happens with slots (tomorrow?), we all need to look out for our wingmen. This is the biggest step most of us have ever taken in our lives. We ALL have worked hard enough to deserve a slot, and we...

I go to GW but I'm in AFROTC. But if you have any Q's about GW, PM me.
