Long time lurker.....I finally registered and am joining the waiting club on behalf of DS. We are staying positive, remaining hopeful and practicing a lot of patience. DS is all qualified,etc. has both a senatorial and congressional nomination to USAFA.
I need some advice (and apologize if this is not keeping in track of the thread): While we are waiting, we are also moving forward with plan B school AND a school organized trip out of the country (japan) schedule for June 13-27th. I realize that IF an appointment is offered DS will need to report back for BT which starts June 27th. I have talked with the student travel agency dealing with this and have been told that they can and would adjust trip for DS to come home earlier (thinking 6/23 or 6/24). Are we nuts? I really have no idea what exact date DS would need to show up IF appointment offered - night before? DS has worked/saved since 14 years old to go on this school sponsored trip - in the end we know that it might just have to be cancelled and forfeit the $$. Just putting it out there to see if others have been in similar situations. BTW, we have a neighbor who several years ago got several appointments; got USAFA in late April - so maybe this is just their timeline...
