    Luggage

    Our son carried a string bag with underwear and a toothbrush and shaving items. That was all he was told to bring! You will have a ton of stuff to carry around that day-don't draw attention to yourself!! Have parents bring other stuff at Parents weekend-or mail it to you.

    Falcon Foundation Scholarship

    Falcon Foundation Scholarship

    We were wondering about the other prep schools listed on the falcon sch. letter besides NW in CA? Don't really like the format of only attending one semester out there and going the other semester at a regular college-not a good fit for our son. Looking at the ones in New Mexico, Texas, and...

    From Kansas with news from USAFA. I did call and found out the Board was meeting today and hoping for good news tomorrow or Friday! Just remember this is quite an honor to be still considered a candidate this late in the game; was told there just isn't enough vacancies/slots. A lot of those...

    Hopefully the last "Who's still CPR" thread

    From Kansas-thanks for your reply; but son didn't have to wait 'til Friday, no more CPR. He heard today at 6:15pm; app stated 'Turned Down by USNA' and no offer for prep school either. Wow-seemed cold to get that and a letter on email from Office of Admissions, not even a real person. Thanks...
