I am still waiting to hear back. Don't loose hope! It's pretty intimidating as you see slots are filling up but I have seen plenty of Airmen get accepted in late April.Anyone still part of the waiting club?

I am still waiting to hear as well and it kind of a drag. The good news, however, is that there are some events that are set in stone this month that I look forward to such as my birthday and the new marvel movie coming out. This helps me keep my mind at ease.Anyone still waiting? Im currently overseas, and no one over here has heard anything. Not even my ALO
Alright so.....do we actually get legit orders? And does anyone know how that works? specifically looking for guard/reserve members ... I just got "travel orders" posted on the portal...and the last item in the appointee checklist says i'll be able to
"print out my official Authorization to Travel for in-processing" after everything else is complete....
but do real orders get posted to AROWS/vMPH/etc ?
I've seen/heard a few things on here...but I don't see anything in the booklet about actual orders
When should we expect to get our orders? I was thinking early May or Late April.Alright so.....do we actually get legit orders?

So you don't "separate" until you go to the actual academy.
Going to the prep-school is actually a PCS. So you should get PCS orders Colorado springs pretty soon. The name of the base is actually "united states air force academy" so yeah.... if you got accepted to the prep I recommend heckling your MPS ASAP. We all know the horror stories of how orders/outprocessing checklists can go. So get on that as soon as possible.
I was lucky and got my official orders within a week of being notified. It helped a lot with outprocessing.

When was your departure date? How much time did you have in between your departure date and RNLT date? Apologies for all the questions.

That depends on so many more factors then I can answer honestly. I wasn't an MPS troop so I don't know exactly how their system works or whatever. All I can say is that I got my acceptance on the 17th, and I got my orders about a week later. I don't know if it helped, but I personally walked into the MPS and (politely) asked them when I could expect them ect... Then continued to walk in and check a couple more times to remind them. I don't know if that helped at all, but I did get my orders pretty quick.
FOR ALL WHO HAVE BEEN APPOINTED
Just got off the phone with Cadet personnel at USAFA, they are waiting to recieve a list of all the prior enlisted who accepted an appointment to either USAFA or the prep school from Admissions then they will send that list to AFPC so we can recieve either PCS or Separation orders depending on if you are direct admission or prep school. They mentioned that it could come down to less than a month from I-day and to call back next week for an update. I will continue to post updates based on what they tell me.
I can post the number. I got it from last years LEAD thread.FOR ALL WHO HAVE BEEN APPOINTED

Maybe if we all start to call, they can speed up the process.... lol
Thanks for the update!!!!

Well a lot of people are still waiting to hear back about being accepted or denied. Maybe they should speed that up first lol. Only one person overseas has heard anything, and that was yesterday.I can post the number. I got it from last years LEAD thread.
I called over as well last week but they told me they had no updates on the process and will get back with me later (they never got back with me).
I feel for the prior directs as you guys have way less time than the priors going to the prep school.
I got the number from the mpf website
Congrats! Now we know the Prep School appointments are starting to come in. Did they call you? Or come up to you in person?Well just found out by my commander I got an appointment to the Prep School! Now just have to wait on my portal to update and reflect!
