I am a current Senior in high school, and next year I will be attending the Air Force Academy. I was wondering if I need to buy a backpack for the school year, or if I will be issued one once I start classes? Thanks!

You will be provided a backpack. You may opt to replace it later, but don't worry about it prior to reporting for I-Day.

Everything you need — everything! — will be provided.

Recommend bringing a standard size, one color, non-descriptive backpack to hold all required items as process thru I-Day.

Note: if the backpack you bring is all black (no large or obvious logos), they should also be able to use it after BCT.
