    South Gate

    I know that a military ID is required when entering the South gate but is everyone in the vehicle required to have a military ID? Would we be allowed to enter at the south gate if our cadet was with us?

    Statistical chances of being appointed to USAFA

    Having seen some demand lately for probabilities of being appointed, I have decided to take my vast knowledge of the Admissions process and provide some statistics I have calculated on my own. I am so confident in my statistics that I virtually guarantee they are 100 percent accurate. Chances...

    2018 Class Profile

    Just curious if the profile for the class of 2018 was ever released. I cannot seem to find that info anywhere. It looks like in the past they had released that info right after BCT.

    My DS broke his leg wrestling last year and has a steel plate in his leg. He has passed DODMERB and is medically qualified. He has no issues with the plate but his Orthopedic mentioned that he could take it out and recovery would only be 2 weeks. He made it sound like it was a very simple...

    AFROTC Scholarship Question

    My DS received an AFROTC Scholarship and had a question. I was under the impression that the scholarship was tied to a specific degree.

    Same Engineering and Construction camp

    I thought I'd throw this out there for those who are not aware of this program. My DS attended the camp at USAFA last summer and loved it. I highly recommend it for anyone interested in engineering at an Academy or even ROTC. They have an Air Force, Marine and Army camp. http://samecamps.org/

    AROTC School Choices

    I recently found out that my DS would automatically receive free in-state tuition at one of his top schools (University of Illinois) if he joined ROTC. This in essence is pretty much equal to the National Scholarship. He is pretty much undecided between UofI and Texas A&M. He has already...
