Agreed. Same situation for my DD, but we play the cards we're dealt. Great news regardless, and a privilege that others applicants may not have received.

My DD received email notification early this morning regarding an upgrade from her Type 7 scholarship converting to a Type 1. I'm gathering from the wording of the email that this was a general notification to existing scholarship recipients. Has anyone else received a similar notification...

... and thank you for updating the thread, for posterity if nothing else. May be helpful for a future candidate to read and understand that they are not the only ones thinking through life decisions such as this. Best wished towards your future !

I'll pass on my turn -- I posted one couple days ago. Someone else go for it! My photo's would be of a bunch of softball fields up and down the west coast, as an artifact of my DD's traveling softball days. Really (really) sad when you can look at a photo of a softball complex and usually...

Coastal Defense Mortar, Fort Desoto Florida ?

That's what I guessed, as in "everyone follows the same recipe" type of thing. Are your college courses then just considered good experience, and you press on from there and re-take classes at USAFA, or can you challenge/test-out on some undergrad coursework, or ? Does that free you up for...

(raising my hand) -- Firstly -- thank you for offering to answer questions given your not-very-common perspective. If you did AFROTC for a year prior to acceptance to USAFA, what are you when you arrive at USAFA for I-day? A 4th class cadet, or some other Nth-class hybrid ? Did your college...

Oh... yes, you are correct. Good clue to a bad event.

Bingo! aka the COTA Observation Tower. DD and I are Formula1 fans, and attended the 2021 Grand Prix at Circuit of the Americas last October. Here's a view from the top. You're up next @ParachutePanda

also -- @THParent -- is that "always embrace the suck" that I'm seeing in your tagline? Very clever.

Hmmm.... I'm not much the world traveler, so I'll have to keep it domestic. Here's a recent photo from my DD's graduation present / bucket list trip. This pic is looking up. I'll post a follow-up pic looking down from the top -- which will give it away.

Sacre-Coeur Basilica, Paris.

Just a comment as someone who architects and implements IT systems -- given that we know that USAFA is utilizing a new resource planning system, and that there have been some delays -- it is quite possible that the reason you are seeing changes to an identifier value associated with your account...

This may have been mentioned already (I didn't read the prior 30'ish pages of this post), but I had a friend ask me "what does the number mean" when I was posting my daily results. I had guessed that it was a daily incrementing number, but was wrong. I then looked at the code of the website...

Curious Dad that I am regarding my DD and her potential date with destiny in Jacks Valley, I searched and found two resources regarding JV's confidence/obstacle courses. One being the Jacks Valley Training Complex Academy Instructions, which states obstacle 15 is off limits to all but the...
