Now that DD has been appointed, how are overnight visits arranged? Is this offered? Is it automatically offered to everyone, or should I contact someone to ask for this? DD did attend the AIM program. However, I think it would benefit her to see the academy during the school year.

My head is still spinning with the news....

I think you are going to have to request the overnight visit.
 
Check out any of the posts on the CFAD program. It'll be a great experience for her to see the Academy during the Academic year, since AIM really just introduces them to swab summer, a tiny part of the Academy Experience.

Congratulations!

Academy Experience

OPEN ONLY TO STUDENTS WITH FULL OR CONDITIONAL APPOINTMENTS TO THE INCOMING
FRESHMAN CLASS:
Join future members of your Coast Guard Academy class during the Academy
Experience. Students with appointments to the freshman class are encouraged to schedule
this overnight orientation to help prepare you for Academy life. Students and their parents are invited
o participate in meaningful discussions with cadets, learn about a wide range of cadet support programs,
meet with coaches and talk to faculty and staff members to help gain realistic expectations for Swab
Summer and beyond. The students will also be given the opportunity to stay overnight in the cadet barracks,
attend classes, eat in the cadet wardroom and observe sports practices (or games when available) or
club activities. Participants will enjoy meeting future classmates and depart well prepared for Reporting-In Day.
