SamAca, sent you a PM. LITS, can we sneak some naps in the library? Capolo, like you said -- should I bother "getting used to it?" I'm trying to get myself more acquainted with the Academy life style, so the transition is easier. I wonder if the 24 pack of Monster is a good idea for when I'm...

That doesn't sound good. Lots and lots of labs?

Cool. Thanks for all the replies, guys. I typically try to be in bed by 2230 or 2300 anyway, but I want to get myself adjusted (at least, with what I can) to Academy life-style. I'm thinking of going into the Electric Engineering major, computer track. Any idea how late that will keep me up...

Cadets, when do you typically get to bed? Do you find yourself doing more homework in between classes, after classes, during class? I'd like a bit more insight on how academics and sleep really work together (if even at all) at CGA.

Any idea how much swimming we wil really do during Swab Summer? I've been running like crazy, staying in shape, but I have not swam in a while. I'm not the best swimmer, so I know I should start to practice and work on it (after all, I'm joining the Coast Guard). But how much should be...

Holding the TWE in my hands. Thanks to everyone for the all support throughout the process. Looks like Coast Guard is the way to go for me. :)

TWE from USAFA today. Still hoping for Navy!

I'm here with my brothers as well. TWE.

Thanks for all the reassuring words, everyone. I'm happy to see some BGOs hopped on here to give a bit more official insight. Two weeks left in the game. Still hoping for the best.

I'm on the island as well, waiting on USAFA and USNA still. USCGA is a solid plan B, though! I still even consider it Plan A. The goal for me is an Academy, so I'm already fortunate enough. But man, USNA and USAFA would be good. :)

Thanks for the words of assurance, mdn18. I am sorry about the TWE. I keep hearing too many qualified candidates are falling victim to the numbers game, and my heart kind of goes out to you. But I won't give up the ship!

Hey all. I'm in NH. Still waiting on word from both USNA and and USAFA. I'm beginning to feel like we're so far along now, at this point there is likely no more chance of an appointment. I know there are three more weeks to go, but hope is kind of dwindling here... Any chance left for...

Hmm. A good part of me wonders what majors they will phase out... Hoping they release that info soon.

I saw someone post on the Facebook status "Are all the selections sent out on the same day?" -- and I doubt this is the case, but I do really wonder how constant their output is. Like, if we aren't notified today, does USAFA's review board meet each Tuesday? What other times....?
