Hello Marciemi, congrats to your #2DS with his appointment to USNA and other college offers and waiting for the USAFA offer. We too have a older son attending USAFA class of 2013 and waiting patiently if DS#2 will be joining his brother at USAFA w/class of 2015. My question for you do you know if USAFA puts any weight into the equation of offering appointment if a older sibling is currently attending?? DS #2 online status application says competitive, has 3 noms from our state. Thanks for your help. Vicki
