DS also got the rejection email today. He was accepted pretty quickly to the USAFA summer seminar last month so that takes the sting away a little bit.
Hard not to wonder what was wrong with his application, of course. Great test scores, GPA varsity sports and extra curriculars.
His dad is a USMA grad and we have lots of other family members who are military. Maybe that combined with the area of the country that we are in were factors. He’s definitely interested in doing ROTC like his older sister also so got to just keep moving forward!
