What kind of medical forms and evaluations do you complete during in processing?

Do cadets choose which intramural activities they participate in, or is it assigned? Can some intramural sports have limited spots? Sent using the Service Academy Forums® mobile app

Awesome. Thank you.

What is the rehabilitation for injuries sustained while at the academy look like? Do you have the opportunity for Physical Therapy and rehab? How do they work with these injuries when physical tests and training are prevented by an injury? Just curious, as injury is probably not...

Thanks for all the comments. My thinking is that: I want to attend a service academy because I will become the best individual I can be, mentally, physically, academically, and morally. At a service academy I will become an officer, and being put in a position to lead at such an early age is...

I met people that had 26's and there were people like my friend who had 34s. There is a large range of scores, but I would say 28+ is competitive.

All ACT scores are reported within 2 weeks of taking it. I would sign up for the December ACT + writing. I went to summer seminar last year, and there were many people that had less than stellar test scores. Your application is more than a test score, however, the ACT is a good way for the...

I'm wondering if there is any one on the forum who has had experience choosing between attending USAFA and other elite institutions such as the Ivy leagues, Stanford, Berkeley, etc. Why did you chose USAFA and would you do it again?

What would be an example of a "medical turnback"

I don't have a nomination, but I have Candidate status on my application portal. I wanted to talk to him about having my school put a tentative Spring Semester schedule on my application. I won't be scheduling for my last semester until November 3rd, after the EA deadline, and I was just going...

I emailed my admissions counselor right after I spoke with him at summer seminar (June 13th) but he hasn't gotten back with me. What is the best way to contact my admissions counselor? I have his business card and could call him, but would there be some reason that he hasn't gotten back to...

Awesome, I was just a little concerned when I first saw it. Thanks!

I was going to access my application today and I noticed that my status bar said, "Access your application for re-admission to USAFA." I haven't ever applied to USAFA before, other than Summer Seminar, and I was wondering why the sudden change with this button that used to say, "Access your...

Thanks! I haven't found a good place to ask this, but what does DD stand for? I see these all over the forums and I have always wondered what they meant. Sent using the Service Academy Forums® mobile app

I am not homeschooled, but I do attend a residential high school that allows me to complete my high school requirements while taking courses at Western Kentucky University. Only sophomores can apply to spend their junior and senior years here, so I haven't had the chance to form the same...
