DS recieved 2 envelopes from USAF today. The first one dated April 8 said "A medical waiver is Approved". The second letter dated April 6 said"We regret to inform you that we will not be offering you an appointment to the United States Air Force Academy this year. As you know, based on your Department of Defense Medical Examination, you do not meet medical standards for the Air Force Academy. Your record received an in-depth review by a panel of experienced Air Force Academy faculty and staff and you can take pride in having meet all of the Academy's other entrance requirements--an achievement that ensures you will succeed wherever you decide to attend college." We are at a loss. DS called his counselor to see if anything could be done. She said it took to long for the waiver to go thru and he could reapply next year. DS is trying to stay positive, he has a four year ROTC scholarship. Wish everyone left on here the best of luck. We know that their is a plan for all these exceptional young adults!
96% of offers out...................but........................not everyone has accepted/declined their appointments yet. Sending up a little balloon of optimism for everyone waiting or hopeful. What is the deadline for accept/decline?
Yes, just a tiny little nugget of hope. 2% of 1120 is about 23 slots. But no one knows what the number of declines are/will be....96% of offers out...................but........................not everyone has accepted/declined their appointments yet. Sending up a little balloon of optimism for everyone waiting or hopeful. What is the deadline for accept/decline?
Ganco, I heard you. I promise you, each day gets better. It's hard to get the letter, but things look so much BRIGHTER a few days after. Things come into focus and you gain perspective. Thinking of you and your household.
