I noticed USAFA says their due date is January 31 but on my portal it says November 1. Does West Point also have different due dates for each candidate? If so, where can I find it?
 
Not official, but I believe for the Air Force Academy, only the candidate kit is due in Nov...the rest is due in Jan. WP is all due in Jan...no advance deadline.
 
USAFAs deadline was pushed back because their portal was having issues for awhile. USMA hasn’t experienced the same issue.

That means everything for everyone is due January 31? No matter when I started the application?
 
It's definitely not due in November. Every nomination source I've heard of does nominations to all service academies simultaneously, and they rarely send them out before the end of October, so it makes no sense. USMA's deadline is in January.
 
OP, asking here gets you good info, but for something as critical as a due date, stick to the source, USMA.

I couldn't find anything about a specific due date for a specific candidate on the USMA website but was curious if there was one hidden deep in a handbook. I read all the handbooks for each academy (I had some free time) and still missed the USAFA different deadline rule. Was curious if I missed something with USMA too.

During my son’s application cycle USAFA had a rolling due date based on initial opening of a candidate’s application. USMA had one due date for all.
I have no idea if things have changed.

I just went to USMA.edu and clicked apply online. It took me to a screen with numbered steps. One states application must be complete and submitted by January 31. I would share the screenshot but my phone doesn’t play nicely with this forum for images.
