Deadline for PCQ

[phillips77]

For USAFA, if you submit your PCQ now, the deadline is supposed to be around November 1st. Is it the same for USNA? If not, what would the deadline be for someone submitting their PCQ around this time? Thank you.

Both applications are due on January 31. USAFA's date (that you noted) is the due date to complete the candidate kit, which still allows time for you to complete your interview, schedule your medical evaluation, request transcripts, receive recommendations, etc. USNA, at least in the past, has not established the same kind of interim deadline. As you know, the PCQ is used to establish your candidate status and allow you to pursue the appointment using the appropriate application. I hope this info helps.

Thank you. About the medical evaluation: Is the due date for your candidate kit when your medical evaluation should be scheduled, or completed? I know on USAFA’s website they say the process can take months.

For USAFA, the medical request is made when you complete the candidate kit. I recommend to all of my students to complete the 'kit' as early as feasible to allow more time for items, such as the medical and eye exams.

For USNA its due when they complete it. It takes forever, don't worry too much about that.
