For those BGOs, ALOs, FFRs, etc. who have a ton of experience doing this....
Appointments have recently been a little quiet on the forum, so the expectations for this week and coming weeks is high. Given prior year information, it seems there might be a "slight delay" in appointments - could just be an illusion. Any input from BGOs/ALOs/FFRs if they are hearing anything on how the FAFSA delay will impact appointments (if at all) this year? I am hearing from my civilian colleges that I now have until 6/1 to accept offers - instead of the usual 5/1 as in prior years. Keep in mind this is today - hopefully that is not extended further. With this date being pushed out, will the academies delay things at all and does that change how they operate between now and then? I would think they would hate to have people accept an appointment by 5/1 to only change their mind later after the 6/1 date and impact the acceptance rates/statistics. FAFSA won't change my decisions at all, but I have friends who will be impacted.
