Are there any other nomination sources for which he applied but have not been slated?
Your question will make many on this forum wonder why he listed other academies if AF is the only one he wants to attend. Nevertheless, if that’s the case, then hopefully he applied for AFROTC scholarship and will pursue that option if awarded. If not, then he could still join AFROTC in college without scholarship and apply for scholarship following year and/or reapply to USAFA next year.
Hi All! My son recieved his nomination today but it was for his 3rd pick of branches. He has had his heart set on the Air Force Academy and even was chosen to attend Summer Camp. My question is I guess ... where do we go from here?

What I meant is I know people who got into airforce after not even getting a MOC or senator nomination and applying to Airforce Academy also much later. They got a VP nomination as Airforce Aacdemy pushed their case. Talk to the counsellor of the academies. This is not some lucky lottery draw those who are good will get through. True a few borderline cases may miss but majority of the good candidates will make it through.
My DS also got his 3rd choice, it was for USAFA, now he knows it was the best choice for him.Hi All! My son recieved his nomination today but it was for his 3rd pick of branches.

With respect, I don’t believe a “Nomination granted to wrong Service Academy” is correct, if he had it listed as a choice.

DS-USAFA class of 2019 received a nomination to Naval Academy, but didn’t apply. It happens.With respect, I don’t believe a “Nomination granted to wrong Service Academy” is correct, if he had it listed as a choice.
