Was surprised to just read the 4Cs at the CGA don't have any social media for their entire 4C year. They will get their phones back after swab summer I believe I read but no social media until the end of their year. I've gotta say, that's actually not a bad policy. They can call and text...

I think Navy has traditionally had the highest. That's where our son was wanting throughout and USAFA was his second choice. USNA didn't work out but USAFA pursued him so he started there last week. Will talk to him briefly on Friday for the 4th and see how it's going. Seen one pic of him...

They may not have. I'm not sure what the total high number would be if each was able to fill all of their spots. I'd be curious of that number. Like a maximum scenario.

Remember, the amount allowed for each Senator and rep went from 10 to 15 this past year. If 6000 or so was a traditional number, adding 5 more per person is correct moving it to 9k.

You're welcome. Yeah it's always weird hearing numbers all over. It's not unheard of to hear something like 14k to 16k open the portal to start the process but gets whittled down to the numbers you found.

Being on the varsity teams is very good. Being team captain is so much better. And remember there is also the competitive within your district. If your district is highly competitive the nomination could be difficult. Without the nomination your chances are about zero. Concentrate on...

Those numbers can fluctuate and are shown differently based on the crowd and where info is coming from. There usually is a higher number out there that involves all applicants entering to start the process but whittled down by nominations, physical, PFA, etc. Those are stout numbers for fully...

Thank you SO much. This actually helps a lot. His is on the lower back of his head and could possibly get in the way of a proper helmet fit so now just wondering if the Air Force themselves may remove it. We were already talking with him about having it removed after he got in (surely wasn't...

Most probably won't know what this is but throwing this out there. Our son is at USAFA and has a lipoma. It's been cleared y DODMERB before he went in and surgeon said he's good to go. They just want to take a look at it one more time after BCT. I would imagine waiting till after BCT they...

Bed is stripped, cleaned and remade as of tonight. Room, bathroom, bonus rooms all clean. My gym stuff is in the bonus room and will be seeing it again so sooner than later. Figured may as well get it done now. Next step is pulling things off the walls and reminding myself how to repaint. :D

Thought the passes were finished after Friday. Wonder if some left were DoD holders.

Another Cid grad sent me that. With the population in Colorado Springs now it's sad that they are low on sponsors. Especially by over 200. We were lucky enough to meet a sponsor ahead of time through a friend from school and is his official. Can't imagine not getting enough people to do this.

Funny, starting another letter right now to send out. First one was sent out yesterday. Like they mentioned, shooting for one every day. Reminds me I need to get his address up on my FB page again to see about getting others writing as well. I know I have one really good friend he really...

Just start seeing about taking it again now if you can and also the ACT. Can't recall if it's the case for college applicants or not but definitely check on it.

There was another that posted on the appointee group chat that they changed their mind and were going to do a year of prep and reapply, don't know exactly how that one will work out, but so be it, and also know of another that had a sports injury and will be deferring for a year. So you are...
