My DS received nominations last year from Lautenberg and Congressman Smith to AFA, both at the VERY end of January. I believe Lautenberg's was actually on January 31. Good luck with your wait and outcome!!

Son is headed to AFROTC at Penn State, University Park! We are - PENN STATE!:thumb:

Good luck to your son, Madunn. My son heard he's being considered for Prep School too, AC told him on Thursday. His Plan B is studying meteorology at Penn State U Park, paid the deposit before May 1st. Good luck to you....and your son too. I wish you'd had better news, but I firmly believe...

Good luck Madunn, we are still waiting here too. The AC did not return my son's call...so the waiting continues. I wish your son the best, and maybe tomorrow will bring everyone news. :bang:

Thank you Christcorp and USAFMortensen. DS did call this afternoon, got the AC's voicemail. He left him a message, he'll try again Monday. Of course we have already placed a deposit with Plan B school - but the waiting (though unavoidable!) is tough. It is good to know another "medical...

OK, it's April 30th - still no BFE, MWE, TWE - nothing. :eek: Radio silence. DH thinks that since DS received a medical waiver very late in the game (05-APR-10) that his app is hanging in nowhere land. Is anyone else [I]still [I]waiting for some type of contact? When do the appointees have...

Congrats again USAFMortensen :smile: I have an enlisted nephew, he really pumped up the virtues of going to the Academy to my son - I truly wish you the best of luck and thank you for serving our country! :yay:

Great news Bendaddy!:thumb: My DS said the AC sounded puzzled for a few minutes - I heard DS explain he had just received a medical waiver earlier this month - then he told me "maybe I'm being reviewed for Prep School." I truly thought he'd get a more firm answer...not a "well maybe you're...."...

Congratulations USAFMortensen! :biggrin:Will you pursue?

Bendaddy - any news yet? Anyone get news yet? DS called Admissions Counselor today, AC said he had nothing to tell him - maybe he is being reviewed for Prep School by "the powers that be....upstairs." Was a little sad he didn't get a clearer answer, but I guess the best news is that he hasn't...

Thanks USAFMortensen. Good to know! Just told DS that - he gave me that exasperated look again. I asked him today if he had called his Admissions Counselor, he said "No. I'll wait and find out the way I am meant to find out." Patience is a virtue, I know......I guess he lives it a little...

urbonman6 - can I ask what your status changed to?

DS still waiting - NJ appts 1/21 (MOC) & 2/1 (Senator) I can't wait until he has a different answer to the question "so have you heard from the Air Force Academy yet?" :scratch:

Congratulations to your daughter!! Way to go!:thumb:

Nail biting time here - has anyone heard of any more appointments since the list was last posted on in February?? No news here......but from what I've read in recent days no news is good news.....:eek3:

Son's letter from Senator Lautenberg was in yesterday's mail as well!

Nominations from Smith and Lautenberg - fingers crossed for USAFA!:redface:

Small update for us - AJBKPBMom- Lautenberg & rep (Smith 4th district) USAFA - no LOA, nothing else.....just waiting......:redface:

Sounds good to me!

I hope it will be too, BlueSkies! I hope we can comment later about our sons meeting each other as members of USAFA Class of 2014 :beer1:
