If you received an LOA it means that your applications is complete.
I know this OP has an LOA, but because there is confusion on the nom threads, I want to make sure ever candidate understands, that there is a difference between 3Q and LOA.
Just because you complete your package you should not take the leap that you will get an LOA.
The AFA is not like USNA or USMA. The AFA requires that completion to be eligible for an LOA. They are the stingiest when it comes to giving LOA's. I think the number is only about 150 candidates. You see alot of candidates here with LOAs, but that is because many have striven for this point for yrs. Honestly, 150 out of 3000 candidates with noms is a very small percentage.
I only bring this up because if you are a new poster, it
could be read as once your packet is complete the next step is you will get an LOA.
I know that was not the intention when it was written, but people have a habit of reading what they want to see, and not what was actually being stated.
15USAF,
Now is the time to wrap yourself in bubble wrap.
Nothing is guaranteed until you show up for I day and are cleared to get on that bus!
Break a leg at Prom in May doing a silly dance, and all bets could be off!
The BFE will be there way before March, just don't risk it doing something foolish. Keep in shape, and enjoy your sr yr., but before your friends tell you to C'Mon let's snow board off the ski patrol shack or take that black diamond slope, ask yourself is it worth the risk when you really should only be on the intermediate slope?
True Story:
Cadet arrives at AFA, and as they get off the bus, they trip and fall, causing them to be medically turned back. They spent a yr rehabilitating their leg, and got there to be turned back again for medical reasons.
IT IS RARE, but it does happen and you want to make sure you are not one of them.
AGAIN CONGRATS! GO AF!
