CFA passed at SLE, now going to USAFA Summer Seminar

[bethf]

I tried to find a thread, so sorry if this is repetitive. My DS completed his CFA at SLE, is happy with his numbers, and has the green check on his portal. Now he is leaving for USAFASS. Do they do the CFA at Air Force Summer Seminar? If so, when they do the CFA there, does he just participate, and say he doesn't need it recorded? (Since I assume you cannot have different scores for different service academies?)

CFA was not administered at USAFASS last year. Supposedly there is a health concern due to the elevation and little to no time for attendees to acclimate. Most likely they'll discuss the requirements for the CFA, but not administer the full assessment.

OK, thanks for your response!

Outstanding! Make sure he has that forwarded to USAFA and USNA (if applying), USCGA is a different test completely. Not sure about USMMA. The coveted Green Check Mark is all that matters.

Bummer, my DD is there now and anticipated taking it. She'll be disappointed for sure.

When DD attended USAFA’s summer seminar several years ago, she said there was quite a bit of vomiting during morning PT. Quite a few attendees who didn’t adapt very well to the elevation — understandable, since it’s just a few days. For that reason, most attendees wouldn’t record their best CFA scores in Colo Springs.
