pugilist, Contact your admissions counselor and notify them of the transcript issue. With that said, you can still complete the vast majority of your application.

@Brawny77 This is more of a 'selections' question so I can't speak to it. @F15DOC The CFA is one component of the application... As long as he hasn't submitted his CFA scores, he can retake the assessment. We're looking for the 'whole person' and so one part of his application will not...

Hello, 4 years ago as a HS student I posted in this forum posing questions about USAFA... I'm now a '15 graduate and am working as an Admissions Advisor! I'd love to answer questions and be another asset to the forums. Visit us! www.academyadmissions.com instagram: academyadmissions...

I read that they were ROTC cadets, perhaps it's part of field training. I hope everyone's fine. http://www.ktxs.com/weather/28174202/detail.html

I also received the information! Hmm what should we get them as a "thank you" gift? :confused:

To all prospective USAFA candidates and to others as well. Great new site from USAFA! The videos are :thumb: http://whytheacademy.com/

Currently I'm finishing the vaccination requirements for USAFA. I do have one question though I had a PPD skin test done several years ago and turned out to be negative (very close to positive but a mm off). And from my understanding we're not suppose to receive another one to prevent the TB...

This is great, thanks!

Hi Fleur, I'm currently in Seattle attending UW so good to see someone from the area. The posters above have essentially summed everything up! But if you ever need specific information just pm me and I would love to help you. By the way if you need AFROTC info let me know as well :thumb...

As far as I remember you provide their names and other contact information in the online application. USAFA sends them instructions and the "form", so you essentially don't have to do anything, although it would be polite to let them know beforehand. :smile:

Do you feel significantly fitter after life at USAFA? :smile: I know it's a weird question, but I'm just wondering how significant the athletic environment and the elevation imposes on the body.

To be honest you have a very well rounded profile. Although, I would definitely consider moving on to the AP versions of Chemistry and Physics (if possible). And obviously try to bump up your GPA and class rank a bit more. And when the CFA comes try to max it out! You still have time on your...

izzy the best thing to do is to contact the Academy directly or your Admission Liaison Officer. They will give you a much more definitive answer. :smile:

If I'm not mistaken I think you do have to give up your Egyptian citizenship. As it might complicate your application for the Security Clearance.

Christcorp, I definitely agree that the Academies don't have a recruiting problem and in no way are we implying that we need "better" applicants. And of course, the limited resources of the SAs need not be used for more advertising. It's just that it's disheartening to see that people simply...

Same situation, so the best advise is not to fail a class and try to maintain a fairly high average consistent to your last quarter/sem grade? To be honest, I'm incredibly stressed since it's not easy maintaining a high GPA in an increasingly harder schedule! But I'm holding on and working...

I would look as professional as possible -- suit, collared shirt etc. Before the interview my ALO actually said no need to dress too formally, so in that case... I put the suit jacket away and just wore a collared shirt with a tie etc. :smile:

To a certain extent I do agree that there's a disparity when it comes to what people know about the Service Academies. I have received a colorful variety of reactions to my appointment to USAFA. Ones who know offer heartfelt congratulations. And on the other side, I get things like "You...

I asked several months ago and although they never gave me a straight numerical answer, my counselor said "do your best and maintain the best effort". And since we are in college, our grades will naturally be lower than our HS counterparts. :smile:

UPDATE I called admissions again, and I found out that they will be sending the second BFE to college appointees during the first~second week of May! :biggrin: BUT, remember to still send in final transcripts whenever it becomes available! :thumb:
