Can commissioned grads be covered under tricare? I was looking to enroll my son in tricare young adult and one of the eligibility requirements is "not otherwise be eligible for tricare coverage". I thought I read on here a few years ago that they were. I called tricare. The rep had no idea...

Just curious...what are the report date trends for those graduating in the next month...rated and not rated?

Where does it come from? Detachment said to create a mypay account. Which is possible, but will require the password to be snail mailed. We were hoping to complete taxes on spring break. Any suggestions to expedite the processes.

Does anyone know if the crosstown cadets from Tulsa attend POC classes at OSU? And do they do PT at cross town campus or at OSU?

In general, when do cadets find out their field training dates? My DS, a rising sophomore, hopes to attend summer 2012 (I know it is a long time from now, and subject to change!)

Does the ROTC stipends & scholarship money need listed under the student income portion of the FAFSA?

My son is a freshman scholarship cadet and his stipend has not been deposited for October and as of today, not for November. He has talked to the detachment about the problem and they say "They're working on it". A friend of his, in the same detachment, same situation received his in October...

Is the $450/semseter for books put on a student account, or does the student buy the books and then file a reimbursement voucher. If books cost less than $450 for any one semester, do you get to keep the extra money (on student account or in cash), or do you only get what you spend?

I recently heard a rumor that there was an announcement to current AFA cadets that the appointments offered for the class of 2014 were the most diverse in AFA history with 40% minorities & women. Current cadets? or anyone else?

my DS got a nomination for the USAFA from Sen Cornyn & Rep Rodriguez. Anyone hear anything from Rep Rodriguez? I know Sen Cornyn "slot" has been accepted. http://www.hcnonline.com/articles/2010/02/04//fort_bend_sun/news//sws_-_airforce_appt._125.txt

Since my son's status has not been changed from "Candidate", it's safe to assume he will get a letter sometime in March...either the fat one:) or the skinny one:( Anyway, I was wondering about when those letters start arriving, and are they mailed in bulk all at once or do they trickle out...

I talked to you and your mom at the commissary today, and I didn't realize the forum you mentioned was this one until I got home. Send me a PM, because I have no idea what your username would be.

I tried to go through the many posts from the 16 page thread...and this is what I've compiled from the most recent board release: Islander's son Blueskies, type 7 Sunshine92 Aglages' daughter, type 7, nursing Eagle1 Homewith4's son, type 2, any major (still waiting on AFA)

My son is going to send his 1st semester transcripts to the AFA to get an updated GPA (it was discussed on that forum a little while ago). Those who have not been selected yet, are you going to send an updated transcript to AFROTC??? It would be in place for the 22 Feb board (that hopefully he...

I'm pretty sure the board met on Friday, Nov 20. Anyone hear anything?

Anyone with an interview time? We've been told Dec 12, but we are wondering if there has been any specific times scheduled yet. My son will interview via telephone b/c we live overseas.

My DS has completed his application to the AFA and is in the waiting game. He is almost done with the AFROTC paperwork...it should get mailed this next week. On the initial online form, you have to choose majors and colleges you are interested in. His list is History, Mathematics...

Twice within the past week, I've heard comments regarding congressional nominations to the effect of "Well, my husband used to work with Senator 'so-and-so', that should help come nomination time". I understand there is no "set" answer to the question, but could that really affect a...

My son has emailed the ALO a few times to arrange the interview. The original appointment she had to cancel. He offered several new dates a week ago and she has not responded. Does it burn a bridge to see if there is another ALO in the area to work with, or do I recommend he just wait it out...
