Hello, all! I am I current high school female looking seriously into the USAFA as a school. I know a lot about the process to get in but I am not as well informed about the aspect of a woman getting into the academy, as well as the perspective of a female at the USAFA. I want to hopefully major...

I am from the Philly area and have looked into it. I am looking into ROTC as well but obviously USAFA is my goal. I have some big decisions to make. Thank you!!

I am a very competitive rower and I really am looking into going to the USAFA as a first choice and Naval as a second. I am aware that the USAFA does not have a rowing program or team and rowing is something I would really like to continue in college, while the Navy does have a great team...

I have heard both good and bad long distance relationships in the USAFA. Many relationships have worked out very well. I personally would not like to have an attachment to someone in this type of environment. You will meet new people and I would fear I would get too caught up in life without...

The pinky finger thing probably does nothing if you have a full range of motion. The leg could be a problem if it doesn't heal totally. I would look in the admissions hand books about health and health DQs.

Mine were diagnosed by a knee specialist/orthopedic doctor. My records do not say dislocation but it was treated as one, due to the fact it could have turned into one. It is resolved and cleared. Thanks for your help!

Okay, cool. Mine was an allergy thing and it had cleared up with over the counter doses of Zyrtec. Thanks!

Mine is not so chronic. It was one time (but very minor but not major either. on a scale of 1-10 I'd say about a 4.5) and we took care of it very well and I have not had problems since. Just something that my doctor told me to look out for. Mine wasn't really even really dislocated, but we took...

That is what I said my reply above. :)

It is a wait list. I am almost certain there is a first-come-first-serve basis. Depending on how far down on the wait list you are, it may vary. I am sure if you are going to be offered a spot, they will give you notice with enough time to plan ahead for the summer seminar. This is my best guess...

hello! I am a current student in high school and I'm looking for some advice on restrictions on admission regarding injuries. I am aware of many handbooks but just some blurry areas I want to clear up. I had broncho-spasms diagnosed at a young age. I grew out of my inhaler in a very short...

Thank you very much. Balance is key and I hope to find that perfect balance. Thanks!

EDIT: I now have a 3.6 GPA.

Thanks for the advice! Yes, I have been considering USNA and other ROTC opportunities but I think USAFA is definitely my first choice currently. Thanks again!

It's all cool. Yeah I have a few questions. How much off-campus time do you get? Would it be helpful if I learned how to fly before USAFA? I also am a competitive rower and would like to continue that in college, so I have also been considering USNA and being on their rowing team and going into...

I actually just realized my GPA has changed with semester courses to a 3.6. Yes, definitely work on leadership. Good luck!

thank you for your reply. I do understand that no one on here can tell me yes or no but alumni and informed non-alumni can give me tips on how to make my application look better. Thanks again.

hi guys, I am sophmore girl in high school. I have kept almost all A's and just a few B's with a GPA of about 3.5. I take almost all seminar, and just a few honors courses, and am planning to take AP next year. I am in the German Honors society and actively participate in student council. I am a...
