    From Plan B back to the AFA

    I have two nominations, senator/rep. No BFE or status change. I emailed my Liaison, and am very nervous. I didn't expect this frankly (this late in the game). My neighbor who sent a son to AFA recently said he didn't receive his appointment until May, and that was with prep school.

    Second wave of BFE's?

    I received two nominations, one from a rep and one from a senator - the status page still says Candidate. The Precandadiate Booklet says most appointments are handed out in March. After the first week of April, will it be unlikely for me to receive an appointment?

    High school academic misconduct

    My younger brother recieved an academic misconduct (along with the rest of his class) for cheating on an after school project accounting for his final grade. Obviously we're devistated, so lets set emotions aside for now. I'm wondering how this will impact his possible admission to any of...

    Computers & AFA

    Good to know about the netbook part; the screen size (zero issue when using a laptop on the go) at 12" is small, close to a netbook's 10" or 11"... that was the only comparasion I was drawing. I took a quick look at the issued computers on the net, they seem fine. I think I may of used one when...

    Computers & AFA

    I suppose to a certain extent this thread is moot, since there really is no changing issued equipment. All I know of how the Academies go about computers are through my three peers who are at West Point as 2014. I also don't think six monitors is necessary for people besides Gordon Gekko, or...

    Computers & AFA

    I agree, and didnt mean to provoke. I'm unfamiliar with computer policy, and based off of some peers' expirence with government issued computers, I thought it might be a headache. If the upper classes have Win7 (relatively new... newer than when the class of 2011 came in) and 2014 has Vista...

    I'm going to assume a bought-for computer wouldn't work for 4 class:biggrin:?

    Computers & AFA

    I was in an, uh, discussion with a buddy about AFA/civilian colleges and computers. He seemed to think six would not be possible at an academey. I said it would, but I actually agreed with him behind my mouth. Even though its no technical violation, I can't imagine the people who ban music for...

    Computers & AFA

    I'm just wondering about the logistics of Cadets' computers at the Academy. I know, obviously no Cadet is allowed a computer during basic training. I'm a senior in HS, and three of my buddies (who are all frosh at West Point now) have their computers. Is each Cadet, even 4th class/freshmen...

    Air Force and ACRONYMS?!

    BFE, DodMerb, ASIC, ALO, VTOL, SINCGARS... even a paper my Liaison gave me was loaded with "yrs, ppl." Seems like a condition we all have? :D

    Appointments

    Hello, Will the Candidate webpage ( https://admissions.usafa.edu/secure/online/onlineapplication.exe ) show an appointment before we get the big white envelope?:cool: Most appointments are given out before April? How many are given after April? (If it's a specific number)
