That's reassuring! I honestly think I'd feel the same way after the first few months. Thank you.

I imagine it's probably common during doolie year, but even after being at the Academy for 2 years or so, do you still get homesick or does it mitigate to a lower level of missing home?

Thank you! This helps!!

Probably a silly question to some, but for our appointee kit it asks to state what size shirt we'll need. Would you say the t-shirts for BCT are true to size or would you suggest ordering a size up? The portal states that once we submit, we can't change it, so I just want to make sure. Thanks!

Thanks @Badge250 and I've heard of the exact same "Flight Suit Friday" @KTMDad :) Thank y'all for clarifying!

I have a question regarding what is worn... Do cadets have to earn the flight suit by taking certain flight courses or is the flight suit another uniform at USAFA that everyone gets?

Cool! Looking forward to the small classes. :)

Since we are talking about classes, typically how large or small are the majority of the classes at USAFA?

I know your question wasn't directed to me... But I also wanted to state some info in case it was helpful. I turned in my application on 12/12/15, but I wasn't cleared medically. I had to submit additional medical documents and consulted with DoDMERB many times regarding chest pains I had when...

Dreams do come true... Same thing I said! (:

Turns out, the scholarship I received can't be used at the Academy. And I'm totally fine with that! Was just hoping that I could save more, just like you noted that cadets get more pay each month, @SkiesToConquer18 Thank you all!

Thank you so much. Indeed, very helpful.

Thank you! Do you happen to know of any threads where they speak of this type of question? @goforspaatz

Is it possible to carry a scholarship over to USAFA? I know USAFA entitles pretty much everything you'll need for the 4 years, but I was wondering if I could use a scholarship I received (it states I can use at any 4-year university, not sure if it excludes SA) for additional necessities without...

This is a great thread! Thank you so much for your willingness to offer your POV. I was curious on the environment? I understand that in attending USAFA there will always be more males than females. That's not something that scares me away, but I was wondering how it is inside and outside the...

Wow, that really gives me something to look forward to! Are these retreats the usual 3-day, or slightly different? If your DD went during the school year, was it something that her professors and squadron leader were understanding about?

No worries! I totally understood it as the way you intended! (: Congrats on their baby! So exciting!!!!
