I learned mid-March last year--most appointments came out after the halfway point, I believe. Relax! (Hard, I know.) It'll come!
All offers should be sent out by the first week of April.
I think one of the things that makes this a tad bit more frustrating than the "traditional colleges" is most of the "traditional colleges" have a set notification date, whereas the USAFA has "floating notification." This leaves applicants waiting to hear from day to day, and has them wondering what is so special about those who heard earlier versus themselves.
I also wonder if perhaps we were just as impatient, but we didn't have forums like this to share with. Because of the limited technology, we might have been more accepting of the lack/slow notification process (1984 high school graduate). Perhaps, it's the ability to share ones thoughts, concerns, ideas, feelings so much easier now that makes it seem as if people are more impatient.
What kind of approval does an admissions selection require and from whom? An earlier post said that the admissions committee meets on Mondays...so hopefully the faucet should open up today.
Look back at previous years. This year is no different than the past few years. USAFA is consistently slowest to issue appointments. Hang in there. The appointments are coming . . . .
