If you have questions about skills/knowledge that you need here or how to train physically, I can answer that too.

Hello- I am a 4th class cadet who is a few weeks into his academic year. If you have any questions about basic or USAFA itself I will do my best to answer the questions. Please try not to ask me any questions about the application process itself, basically any question you could think of is...

The last time this topic was brought up was 10 years ago. Does anyone know the current intramural teams at USAFA? In addition to those teams, does anyone know what other clubs or activities fill in for your PE slot (for example I know Drum Corp does)? USAFA listed a couple of intramural teams...

How far should I be running a week you think? I have heard in the spring I should get up to 15-20 miles per week, but right now I am running around 10-13 miles per week. People in the 500 and 1000 clubs are in amazing shape!

Thank you. I will look over this and try to create a workout plan out of what is given. I think the USNA plan is more rigorous than this one, but I will have to try both to learn. While I have been running aggressively for almost a year now, I have always run in running shoes. Is it advised...

Hello- I took my CFA back in September, but I obviously want to stay in shape/get in even more shape. I was looking online for workout routines to follow (I want to find ones that work my entire body) and there are two different ones on the USNA website (I'm applying to USAFA, but I know the...

I did my CFA back in Sept outside. Yes, it was warmer then (about 40 degrees F), but I still run outside in the cold now and you can get the average times if not better. But to answer your question, you are permitted to, just ill-advised.

As part of the followup for the DoDMERB survey, they ask how many times a specific occurrence, in my case counseling, has occurred. When it asks for incidences, would it want how many times you went to a therapist (number of appointments) or how many times something has triggered you to go to a...

Yes I have, I'm almost done (need to do fitness test and SAT). Once that is complete is that all of my application for the AFROTC Scholarship (besides the interview)?

Hello- I am working on my application for the AFROTC Scholarship and am looking for some clarity on what they want. Do they want Letters of Recommendation or have essay prompts/short answer questions? I've read that Navy does and I imagine Army does too, but I can't seem to find any for AF...

Thank you!

Hello- The DoDMERB has opened up for me and I am finishing up the survey now, but am waiting on some information from my doctors before I finish it. Another tab for scheduling my exam has just appeared and I want to make sure by scheduling my exam it won't automatically submit my medical survey.

For those of you who have had a multi-year commitment, which includes more than just your sophomore year up, are you talking about your experiences before 10th grade? It would seem weird to talk about my most recent experiences without talking about the experiences that led up to my current...

Quick question about Advisor ALO. Below my contact for USAFA Counsoler there is another contact for Liason Officer. Is that my advisor ALO or should I look somewhere else for that contact?

I agree with this. While many people on here may provide great advice, we are not the military (at least most of us aren't, you may get lucky and find some people who are active). Also, understand there is no such thing as a golden ticket or guaranteed yes to any academy no matter what.

It's good that you are starting young. I am currently in the application process for USAFA and am working on my essays for my MOCs. While I understand you haven't chosen a particular academy which you want to attend, just an FYI that USAFA takes an increased interest in how you did in your...

Sorry, meant USMA and USNA (habits)

From what I can see, you clearly have the physical aspect, as well as the leadership boxes, checked off. While I back up what country roads said (that no one can say a definitive yes or no), you're looking good. Be sure to be able to articulate all of this to both USAFA and your MOCs. What is...

I am currently organizing my letters of recommendation for my congressional nominations as well as USAFA. The people writing the letters have asked me what USAFA is looking for in an applicant (what they should talk about in their letters). While I have composed a rough list (including being...

Hello- I am currently filling out my AFROTC Scholarship application and I don't see any essay. I just want to confirm that I am seeing this correctly. Has anyone found an essay, or free-response questions at all, for the AFROTC Scholarship application?
