If you have LOA, they will find a way to get you a nomination.

Does TA and RA count? Some grad school offer RA and TA as part of the funding arrangement. Does Air Force 'consider' RA/TA as scholarship? Students have to 'work' to cover the cost of study, but at least AF does not have to pay.

Thank you! I called my rental car company and in 2 minutes they altered my reservation -- the price is reduced by $50! I love this forum.

I got some conflicting information regarding Thursday. Can someone clear the confusion? (1) can parents meet their cadets (4th class) in Thursday evening? (2) how do cadets request to be allowed to meet parents? Thanks in advance!

For Thanksgiving and Christmas breaks, is there any bus transportation from AFA to Denver airport? If so, where to find out the schedule?

Great infor for us first timers. What about food, where do we get it (most of the restaurants are not open that early)?
