    Weight Requirements

    Nope, I would focus on other areas, this is a hurdle that can get taken care of later. I would assume this to be incredibly low threat.

    What do the Cadre think of the cadets

    Firstie here, I have worked multiple basic trainings and what I think of my cadets is along the lines of brotherhood and sisterhood. Sure they're full of dumb mistakes as basics, it's called having a "basic brain" to do and say the most stupid things. But we were all there at one point and it is...

    Communication with 26

    Be flexible, however, 99% certain that the next and only call of basic will be DDO (July 9th). Parent's pages and other sources may be working off of info from the past couple of summers but many things reverted back to the way it was during the summer of 19'.

    Summer Seminar Waitlist

    Those selected for FVE get a week-long experience (this was when it was all in person before the COVID era). Pretty much an all-paid-for visit where an applicant stays with a cadet host and goes to classes, tours, and other useful opportunities of looking into everyday cadet life during the...

    Summer Seminar Waitlist

    When I applied for SS , I waited and waited, never got a spot or even a waitlist. I was pretty disappointed at the time but like FirstGo mentioned, it does not have much of a say for your actual appointment. I was lucky enough to be invited to Falcon Visitation Experience (FVE), which in...

    Did anyone get an invitation to the Falcon Visitation Experience?

    I got to do this in 2018 and it was what solidified USAFA for me, not only is it meant for people who may not know much about USAFA and/or may lack connections to the military (family, legacy at USAFA). But it is also geared towards people they think will be successful here (based on the snips...

    Anyone else concerned about Math placement score?

    According to the portal, it is just for placement and will not impact one’s appointment. I had the same fear because I did not preform as well as I’d hope. But It looks as though we’re in the clear [emoji846]

    SF86 Filling Out Suggestions

    For all appointees (current or past) who has completed the Standard Form 86 (Security Clearance). I was wondering if there is a method to filling it out that is most recommended. So far my main issue is that when attempting to save the interactive PDF, it doesn’t save the info that I typed in...

    Is a DL required to attend the academy?

    In regards to I-Day and judging by the appointee handbook, a DL would be useful but there are alternative proofs of identification that are necessary for June 27th.

    USAFA Class of 2023 Appointment Thread

    As for me, I received a call from my MOC Friday and was told to expect an update from the portal, which happened today. From my understanding. Traditionally, if someone receives an appointment due to the nomination from their MOC, their MOC will know first and notify the appointee.

    USAFA soccer player drafted into the MlS

    I am just speaking this on my connection and general knowledge of professional soccer. If someone were to finish their active duty for X amount of years, they would be too old and too late to play professionally for the MLS. Soccer clubs like those in the MLS are very unlikely to wait on a...
