I have only submitted a few things for USAFA so far, not anywhere near the 50% threshold that I have been told about where academies act upon, (Navy is my #1, WP is #2) and they have requested a Present Health Questionnaire. Is this a sign of early interest (wishful thinking)? Or some other...

I'm wondering if candidates are allowed to send hard copy resumes to admissions? Such as the resumes we send to MOCs.

ITT: Challenges the Academy produces. Physical and Academic are a given.

Prepare for a long and arduous relationship with DoDMERB this next year

I just submitted my Prelim application for USNA... boy does this feel familiar. Not too excited to restart this agonizing process, but very excited for the potential award. Second times a charm, right?

So I do not have a nomination to West Point and I plan on attending Greystone Prep this fall; however, I still have yet to receive a TWE email from West Point. Is there still a possibility of a prep school slot without a nomination? My friend got into AFA's Prep school without a nomination but...

Wait is over for me too for this year. TWE, I'm sure some crodegy old shills over in off-topic will be overjoyed. Thanks for the help over here in this board, I will be back next year if AFA turns me down too. I'll be at Greystone if thats the case. Ciao.

From what I have heard from my ROTC friends, AF is looking for more fighter pilots because of recent decreases of squadron retention. So if he wants to fly, the AF is the AF. But, Navy does have great flight options as well. Tell him to go with what his heart says, where he will be happy is key...

I hope we can break 160 reported appointments!

New appointment just reported! Proof there is still hope in this final week fellow CPRs, keep your heads up!

CONGRATS! When did you get the email? Early morning?

Is that a threat? I talked about a few controversial issues when I was being interviewed, and those on the board obviously thought I was eloquent/qualified enough to give me nominations. I am not hiding behind online anonymity, this board demands it. I would defend any and all of my opinions to...
