    ROTC PFA results

    I only applied to the Air Force Academy and Air Force ROTC but I remember reading somewhere during the application process that PFA from other branches don't count for theirs. So, I believe you have to do each one separately. However, if you happened to apply to Navy, Army, and Air Force ROTC...

    Dual-enrollment?

    I applied and got an Air Force ROTC scolarship last year!! Oh Yeah!! Good luck to everyone trying this year! Nothing about my dual-enrollment credit ever came up. I only had 21 hours of dual-enrollment but I don't think it really matters how much you have. The question is asking if your a full...

    Practice PFT

    My scores were worse than that when I started out except for the mile but that because I have been running long distance since the sixth grade. After about a month, I was able to do 57 push-ups, 59 sit-ups, and a 5:3- miles. The only thing you can do to get faster at running is run. Since it is...

    Running

    First, don’t run on a treadmill. It can be deceptive (it makes you think you are faster than you are). Also, it is really really boring (So much more enjoyable to drive your car to an unknown place and start running. Once you can sort of judge distances. It fun trying to find your way back to...

    Still waiting?

    Christcorp, I had a quick question. If I got a 1320 SAT (670 Math and 650 Critical Reading), should I retake the SAT again if I am applying to the Academy again next year? Big Red and Sarah. As soon as I got home from VT, I had to go out of town to see my grandmother. It is her 70th birthday! I...

    Still waiting?

    Got the TWE yesturday. Same wording as above. However, I didn't get the whole 1,285 admitted. Doesn't the Academy normally offer 1,700 appointment and around 350-450 turn them down and they nab as many from the waiting list as they need to fill the class. Has everyone already turned them down...

    TWE

    Unfortunatly, I recieved the TWE yesturday in the mail. I told AFROTC that I do type 7 and stay in-state but I got waitlisted from UVA which is the only college in VA I wanted to go to. So, I might try to change it to a type 3 and go to one of the out of state college that I applied to once all...

    Virginia Noms

    Are others sending in deposits for plan b?

    I have a moral conflicts with the whole back up plan idea. I live in Virginia so I will talk about UVA. UVA is a very fine institution, it is my brothers first choice. However, what happens if he get waitlisted and I get in but I get an appointment to the academy and pay all the money to UVA as...

    Itinerary and iPods

    This may sound like a wierd question. Can we still use our ipod if we don't don't listen to music? I do use my ipod to listen to music but I also listen to audiobooks of stuff I am reading in class such as plato republic, 1984, the bluest eye, etc. I can live without either. However, it really...

    Time for the appointment thread

    Same here. I checked it at 10:00 Am Eastern Time and it had what it normally has. 4 line with application status: in process Medically: Qualified etc. I just checked it and the application status line had dissappeared both for the Academy and AFROTC. Maybe the Air Force Academy gave them the...

    Running shoes at USAFA?

    That really sucks. I hate New Balance. They tend to have a wider toe box and don't fit my feet properly. I worked at a running store for a year and got addicted to the Asics Kayanoes and Saucony Hurricanes. I have continued to run in the Asics Kayanoes and Saucony Hurricanes since I stopped...
