My DS is a pre-candidate for AFA. Any SA parents out there who are LDS/Mormon and can share their experience with getting a leave for church mission?
If DS gets a nom and is accepted he would be able to do his first year but then would leave for 2 yrs on his mission.
He met a current cadet in his 3rd year at AFA at a MOC's SA conference recently who said it's "no problem". I would be interested in hearing others experiences and if it was "no problem" for you and your DS/DD as well!
When do cadets have to be back for fall term for 2nd year at AFA? I understand there are three 3 wk summer "terms" and that you are free for one of them? DS would have no problem returning from mission in time for fall classes but dates for mission may not coincide to be present for 2 of 3 summer periods. Would that be a prob from AFA standpoint?
Thanks in advance
