FWIW - This rumor/speculation was supposedly initiated by an ALO. Do some ALOs have more insight or inside knowledge of the USAFA/RR than other ALOs?You didn't hear it from me, but word on the strips is that they'll only be taking 900 this year.
Edit: And by word on the strips, I mean word from my former ALO.
Speculating, while fun and sometimes interesting in this area...really isn't going to do much except cause a lot of candidates and their parents angst, as they foresee and "imagine" EVERY horrible scenario imagineable!

One thing is certain: "It will be what it will be..." and we'll all know around May when the AFA/RR folks release the numbers on appointments offered, appointments accepted, and the size of the entering class."
....if the goal has been to graduate 1000 cadets....
And we feel the strain of being over the max as well. Especially with the construction on the dorms, most 3 digs end up in a 3 man room at least one semester and occasionally even a junior or two (I roomed with a junior and another sophomore last year).
