Nervous wreck. rollercoaster ride for over a year. website says disqualified, then Academy calls last week for DS to redo CFA, then Academy today calls tells DS website updated with new CFA scores, and that letters are going out today and tomorrow.
been reading threads for weeks now, just joined the madness, what does it all mean?
This is worse than waiting for officer promotion results to come out. Got my fingers and toes crossed for all of us
Definitely worth exploring. At one point this spring my DS had his height incorrectly inputted by Concorde, the third party medical company that did his physical. Basically they had him as being 5 feet tall with 22 inch long legs (he is actually 5'11"). He showed as qualified by DODMERB, but could have been DQ'ed by the board (legs would have been too short to reach the pedals in a car!). I found the admissions couselors very helpful - so definitely find out why.Now really confused, yesterday status says administratively disqualified again, how?
hoping it is a clerical error. DS is calling AFA Counselor today
Only other thing I can think is CFA not passing? any comments, suggestions? anyone seen anything like this, and does clerical errors happen on the status page?

Good morning MBS (Mail Box Stalkers)! It's a new bright shiny day. Who cares if I have bronchitis and a mountain of clothes folding awaiting me later tonight. Who cares I have a busy day of work plus 5 other appointments this week? I don't care! I woke up and remembered it's a new day and good things happen (blessings) each and every day! I have a pep in my step and knew I would get an extra boost by reading this forum. All the stories the kids are relating about the funny "hyper-alert waiting for news" incidents (getting called out in class, etc) are so humorous. Keep them coming. Helps pass the waiting time! PIMA, thanks for jumping in with relevant info. You can be our group therapist (anxiety expert for parents). Everyone have a wonderful day!
(Posted by mom whose DS is camping and left her in charge of Stalking) Just found out a girl in the next town over received her BFE yesterday. Happy for her. If I have to be (kidding, of course).
Therapist speaking.
"One thing is to understand, the military life is not only about what you know, but timing.
I hope as the TWEs come out that some of you think of this story and understand, it was nothing more than timing and what the AF needed now."
This is very comforting...I don't know you "Pima" but after reading some of your posts it seems like u know a lot about AFA
Thank you for reminiding me about "timing"...that is so true.

TKUSER, your son wins the prize for most innovative jokester. That is hysterical. Great family story for the future.We've been experiencing much of the same insanity as all of you! My freshman (HS) DS, re-programmed the caller ID feature on our home phones to display "US Air Force Academy" when he calls from his cell. Imagine the excitement to answer the phone thinking it's the USAFA when it's DS2 verifying baseball practice is over @ 6:30 and we're on carpooling duty. Soy sauce on the waffles....he's going to be lucky if that's all I do to him when he gets home!
