I am not. I'm going to a University instead

I haven't been keeping up with this thread too much lately, so maybe I missed it... But did anyone get a letter about Falcon Foundation or AFA Prep School acceptance? I think I've been hesitating to pay a deposit and acceptance for college because I haven't heard of those letters going out yet.

:bump8ls: I noticed a few appointees for 2015 who are new to the forums, so I thought I'd bump this back to the first page. It has a lot of good questions and answers

Mine still says candidate :frown: If it changed that's probably good news rather than a glitch, since mine's the same

Exactly. I'm not letting one rejection slow me down. We'll talk again after 2 or 3... But it shows a lot of maturity to take the rejection like a criticism, improve on it and come back for another try, and most of all to find the positives in it! I decided I wanted to apply around...

I found it helpful to just keep it natural. Don't think about it too much. I started with standing, I'd just stand and without trying to control my body a specific way throw the ball as far as I could with one arm. I payed attention to how my torso twisted, where my arm went, and how my feet...

Would the civilian teachers be forced to temporarily leave? I feel like some teachers would feel an obligation to still go teach their class even without pay. Then again, I'm an optimist. High Schoolers still have to go to public school, including their teachers :frown:

The CGA also has one of the smallest populations, if not the smallest. It seems the bigger schools (AFA, USNA, USMA) care more about diversity

Thanks everyone. I definitely have some good points to consider from both sides. I'm leaning towards ROTC. Another benefit to me is that it's my hometown college, so I'll know a lot of people from my High School in ROTC. Not that I couldn't make good friends anywhere, but I know some really...

This question has been discussed a little bit in the Reapplying Club thread, but I felt like it needed it's own thread so prospective reapplicants like me can see both sides in it's own thread seperate from other conversation. It seems like a lot of QNV candidates from this year are motivated...

And this is the Instructions to Candidates link if anyone hasn't seen it https://aloweb.usafa.edu/candidatekit/CK15/Forms/OnlineInstructiontoCand.pdf The Pre-BCT workout suggestions start on page 27. You can download the pdf from your application portal

In the Instructions to Candidates pdf the last pages go over the PFT, which includes min, mean, max scores. Not to insult anyone, but that's different from the CFA and the CFA's maxs and means. Maybe that's the minimums you were referring to? The last pages of that pdf also include a Pre-BCT...

Try giving a call or email to your ALO about that. My dad has a BCT video from when he was an ALO, he used that video when giving presentations at schools. It's a bit outdated (very early 90's looking) but maybe current ALOs still get videos.

When reapplying, I know you have to show that you're working hard in college and actually handling the courseload well. I plan to impress ROTC leadership and also pull a really good GPA. But it gets a little tough weighing good GPA and courseload. I took AP Calc AB in my Junior year, which is...

Only about 20% of the AFROTC cadets are on a 4 year scholarship. Look into other scholarships for the school you want to go to

I called the school and am a little blown away. First of all, the director answered the phone, not a secretary. We talked for a good 20 minutes, she asked me some questions, I got to ask mine. She convinced me that this is a good place to go to, and she made me confident that I could be accepted...

I feel so last minute for only starting to look at NWP now. I checked the curriculum and had a question. Does everyone take every class? Not to be "that guy" but taking that kind of math course seems like it would bore me to death, I'd just keep wishing it was calc 2. But based on my SAT scores...

I asked my counselor about that a while ago. I play Quidditch (that game from Harry Potter) on a school team, mostly just for fun, but it is an exhausting sport nonetheless. My couselor said it really has to be a recognized school or club sport to get checked off for a sport credit. But, it can...

Got the QNV letter. Fun new acronym at least. I haven't checked the forum or this thread in forever! At least I've been staying busy having fun this spring break

Hey everyone. I haven't been on these forums for my whole Spring Break but came back to check up on things and to see who else got a TWE. I have the one that many people are getting, it says the word "qualified" in it and says I've been waitlisted. I wanted to start a thread like this, and I'm...
