    Out of running? Appointment offered to another form MOC nomination

    If MOC “B” has no cadets attending USAFA because they only received two nominations to USMA and USNA then it still wouldn’t be possible to transfer that MOCs nomination and potential appointment to an applicant of another district. Once all the slates have been decided, applicants are moved to...

    Still waiting

    Based on information drawn from the admissions website, this forum, my ALO and fellow applicants and appointees, I have come to the conclusion that I am competitive for an appointment. I have emailed my ALO, but being that he is active duty and transitioning to a new post, communication with...

    Still waiting

    Hi all, it’s getting late into March and less and less appointments are available to be given out by admissions. Is there anyone who might know how many appointments are left? I have a principal nomination from my congressman which I know is the “golden ticket” but I’m starting to lose hope this...

    USAFA Class of 2023 Appointment Thread

    I believe it is possible for more than two people from one congressional district to be offered appointments. Assuming the MOC has two slots open in a given year and the academy finds both nominees qualified to enter, those two will get their appointments. As the admissions office starts to fill...

    Next appointment rush?

    Notices of appointments go out after the MOC has been notified of their nominees acceptance, which means the admissions office probably times it so that the USAFA admissions email goes out after the obligatory 72 hours that a MOC has to notify their people. So if notices of appointments go out...

    Next appointment rush?

    Some info worth sharing. It’s from a reputable source. “There will be more appointments coming in over the next three Monday and Tuesday's for about three weeks starting on the 25th. to about April the 9th...” For anyone who hasn’t heard yet, it seems like Monday’s and Tuesday’s are the days...

    Next appointment rush?

    Nothing yet. I’ve communicated with my ALO a little, but he was promoted to full bird a few months ago and is transitioning to a new duty station so emails have been few and far between. I’ve been trying not to bother him too much with all my questions and instead turning to the forums. I’ve...

    Will quitting AFJROTC affect chances for USAFA?

    I’m also in JROTC, though I joined sophomore year so I’ve only had three years like you. I completely understand how sometimes it can be a drag and it’s not always fun, but if you quit not only are you losing stuff to put on your resume, USAFA is gonna think you won’t be able to follow through...

    Just curious, what did USAFA411 send you? Is it confidential info or something that may be helpful to a fellow applicant? I completely understand if you can’t share the information, but, similar to how many others still waiting are feeling right now, I’m very nervous! Thanks for any info you...

    Next appointment rush?

    To me it seems to be slightly different. Turn backs from last year obviously here first, then LOA folks, then as I saw it and through people I’ve talked to, those who had their application done on or before 1 November (early action of sorts) get their appointments, then preppies and falcon...

    Next appointment rush?

    Appointments for the 13th have gone out and if we didn’t hear back, does anyone know when the next “rush” might be? Or if they’re just going to release them at a steady rate for the next few weeks into April? I know that the whole March 13th appointment rush may just have been conjecture, but...

    Advice For My Application to USAFA

    Looks pretty good to me, but it's hard to predict your "chances" of getting in from numbers. Generally, a good GPA, good test scores and decent class rank are necessary to be considered "qualified" and "competitive," though there are exceptions. Unless you're aiming to get recruited by USAFA for...

    USAFA Acceptance

    Take this with a grain of salt because the info I’m giving you may not be completely accurate. You WCS (whole candidate score) has different parts or sections. The academic part is what’s weighted the most, but it isn’t the ONLY THING the academy looks at, although I’m sure you know this...

    Competitive District Advice

    I’m currently a senior and when I applied for SS I didn’t get in either. It wasn’t a huge deal anyway, I would have had to fly across the Atlantic as for me, Europe is home, and it would have conflicted with JROTC and Boy Scout arrangements I had made previously. Summer seminar, at least from...

    My chances at an appointment

    First off, I like the profile picture. And secondly yeah I’ve seen all the posts similar to mine and I’ve seen all the answers similar to yours in that the only people who really know how the process works is the admissions staff, but I figured it couldn’t hurt to ask out. I appreciate your...
