cfa

I originally submitted all of it in December, and got my waiver approved in late January, but it still says, "SCORE IS ON FILE AND PENDING REVIEW" How long should this realistically take? At first I understood the small team had to go through a lot of reviews, but I'm starting to get concerned...

Hello! I submitted my CFA pull up video back in 1/30 after they determined on 1/29 that my CFA video was not up to standard and have not heard anything back since. My CFA score says its "SCORE IS ON FILE AND PENDING REVIEW" and my video is "ON FILE (1/30/2024)". Does this mean that there were no...

Hello! I've recently taken my CFA for all the academies, and the following scores passed for all the academies except USMA. My regional coordinator and application technician said the main thing I needed to work on was my pull ups... Anyone have any tips to crank a couple more out? I've been...

I have my official CFA on Monday and I am a little worried. Over winter break I caught a really bad flu and it took me out for almost 3 weeks which means I did next to nothing for physical fitness. I took a practice CFA and I was wondering if I scored the same would this be considered passing...

I received my LoA to USMA about two months ago. As usual, the first paragraph included a notice that it would expire on a pre-determined date if I hadn't completed my file by then. I completed all remaining items, except for the CFA, which I had to postpone due to an injury. I missed the...

So I took the cfa around 2 weeks ago and haven't heard back from USMA yet. I received an email from admissions updating where we should all be in terms of our application. One of the things mentioned in the email was our cfas will stay as pending (yellow) until the entire application is...

What happens if one passes their first CFA but retakes and fails their second CFA? Hoping this forum can possibly give some answers. Thanks!

Hi so I recently took the cfa a few days ago and haven't gotten word from USMA and I'm getting worried. Theres no check mark showing up on my portal either, still yellow. These are my scores (I'm female btw). Do ya'll think I passed....? My running events obviously weren't the best as you could...

Let me know what you guys think (male) bb throw: 69ft sit ups:55 push ups:45 shuttle run:9.5 pull ups:11 mile run:7:20

Does Anybody have any advice for high school students who want to attend USMA or USAFA?

Hey everyone, I took my CFA recently and think I did well on everything but the pushups. My proctor said it was my call if I wanted to submit my score but he recommended not sending it. What do you all think? My scores (I am a male) were: Pushups: 31, Basketball throw: 74'2", Pull-ups: 8...

I stubbed my finger really bad practicing basketball throw. Minor avulsion fracture putting me out for 3-4 weeks. Just my luck that my deadline is Nov 1st. Should I wait it out and see or reach out to admissions staff and ask for an extension on the CFA? Do they even offer extensions...

I received an LOA for West Point around a month ago, and am afraid I'm going to fail the CFA. I'm taking it this Thursday, and have to submit it by 10/15/23. If I send the results on the day I take it or very soon after, if I fail will my LOA be rescinded? I've heard it takes a while for them to...

Hello! I completed my CFA today. I worry that I did not pass due largely to my poor basketball throw and shuttle run performances. I am a female. I have very strong academics and extracurriculars. Is my CFA good enough to consider me athletically qualified? Basketball throw- 36.3 ft Pull ups- 4...

Hello, I am a college freshman who is applying to USAFA, and I am part of AFROTC. I was wondering if I am allowed to have an NCO (T/Sgt) member of my cadre administer my CFA for me, a commissioned officer, or would I have to go back to my high school to have my senior year gym teacher...

I have a question regarding the shuttle run for the CFA since I am finding different information online. I thought that the CFA was consistent between all of the military academies. When looking at the shuttle run, is this also true? How far is the shuttle run? I have found differing information...

Hey everyone! As of 2/26/2023 I have a green qualified box in my USNA application saying that I passed the CFA from the summer seminar CFA. I thought I underperformed by a bit while I was there. Is it worth retaking the CFA and aim to get a higher score? Or should I just leave it as it is since...

My CFA scores turned green into "On File and passed" and my DodMERB also became "Qualified" on the 24th of last month. I have also secured my nomination from the local US embassy. It's definetely not a guarantee, but it's a sign of good things to come, right?

Hello, after getting turned down to the class of 27 I have started to gear up for next year's offensive and reapply to USNA. I am waiting to hear back from my NROTC scholarship (anyone know when the heck that comes out? Already April 17th) and I have a backup school in place. I am aware I have...

Hello! I recently received acceptance to NASS and quickly realized this meant taking the CFA in about 3 months. I know I'm eligible to do a flexed arm hang, but understand that 1 pull up is better than the full 30-31 seconds. Any tips for what to do to prepare/routines that are useful? I have...
