You can always apply for a waiver- maybe it won't even show up. It's pretty low to cheat on this test before even getting to the academy, and it'd suck if you got in, they found out, and kicked you out. Respectfully from a third time applicant, don't put yourself and another prospective...

Let me know if you need a ride for I-day, regardless of where you're staying! my family would be happy to take you out to dinner the night before and to check into I-day!

I'm a third time re-applicant and got accepted this year also. I'd say get involved in college- participate in research and club opportunities in whatever interest you. Keep your grades up and take STEM courses. Get to know your professors so they can write you good letters of rec.

They asked about my SAT in my interview and I responded politely stating that I had completed up to differential equations/linear algebra college level courses where algebra II is foundational. So clearly I had mastered and excelled beyond the topics on the SAT.

Music may help you out, get good running shoes

I had to apply three times before I got my acceptance. I'm a double engineering major at UC Berkeley and they still rejected me a second time (got accepted this year). I was very physically and academically qualified- I'm not sure why it took three times. Tell your DS to keep applying if it is...

My last two rejections were April 21st (or around that date) on the last day- it was a big wave of rejections where about 95% of the people still waiting heard

A 23er I know turned 23 as soon as they got out of basic.

On the USAFA website under majors you can compare and contrast the two. They have very detailed information including courses and future job opportunities.

Changed 171 to accepted... got my portal update today. Thank you again for the support. I'm so grateful for this forum and all the information its provided me. I hope to return that favor for prospective cadets and their parents in the future.

Thank you so much!! Congrats to your DS! Thank you! :wiggle:

I believe appointments are ultimately up to the academy. As previously stated, the MOC can express support for a candidate by giving them the principle nomination. I also believe in putting up a fight (which is why i'm here... a third time lol) but I don't plan to go to extreme lengths until...

I am in the same situation... third time applying and third time receiving a nomination from the same MOC. However, they do not do principle nominations in order to give every applicant a fair choice. I have felt inclined to ask my MOC to vouch for me, but I've held back because I agree it is...

that's what I'm hoping for 🤞

waiting is tough especially as we get closer and closer :(

congrats!! woo🥳 did you receive a phone call from your nominating source?

I was actually asked about my SAT score in my interview this year, it is above average but definitely could have been higher. I simply stated that I'm excelling in higher level math and engineering courses where the topics on the SAT are foundational, implying that I have mastered SAT topics and...
