The Waiting Club

Just got rejected from USAFA. This is a hard one to take, but thanks for everyone for your support and help throughout this process.

Best of luck to all appointees!

I’ll be doing NROTC at that one little #16 seed school who happened to beat Virginia last year.;)
 
Also received my TWE this morning, via email and the portal update. To everyone still in the run, keep fighting! It is an honor to hear all of your amazing stories and backgrounds. Good luck!
 
Received TWE this morning. Firm believer that I will be where I am supposed to be. Good luck to everyone out there in the class of 2023 and to those who are in this same boat, keep pushing on! This will be a great lesson that we will reflect upon - when we face defeat, it shows us how bad we really want something.

I also want to give this community a huge thank you. The information I've gathered from this forum alone has helped in so many ways. You guys are awesome!

Thank you!
 
Also got my TWE this morning. We will all end up where we need to be. Don’t let this stop ya!!
 
TWE this morning.

Same here. A very long 2 years to say the least.
EagleLegion14 so sorry to hear that ! DS in same boat reapplicant haven’t heard from him this AM but I’m guessing TWE in mail . You worked so hard , I don’t understand . They say the academy favors reapplicants but I’m really doubting that now . I hope you have a plan B that you will be happy with !

Hoping your son is still in the run if he did not hear this morning....I will be sending positive thoughts for a great outcome!!!

Thanks jeng ! Just heard from him his portal updated to non- select . Oh heartbreaking past several years . Did everything possible . Well after rightfully mourning for a week time to focus on Plan B !

Haha love it ! It’s like a challenge now isn’t it and you won’t let them beat you ! Go for it kid !
 
Just received my TWE as well. Like others I’m disappointed. Thought I had a pretty good shot after receiving multiple congressional nominations and going to summer session. But there were a bunch of other great candidates from the State of Texas that applied as well. My Plan B, attend USMMA where I have choice of which branch of service I can attend as an officer as well as flight programs... So USAF is still an option. Good luck all. Look forward to serving with you in the future as you work your plan B’s. Chase your dreams and never give up!
 
The positive feedback is helping immensely as we just found out that DS was not selected. Good luck to all who were appointed and to those who went through this process. We're in this together.
 
Just curious if anyone else did not receive a TWE this morning?
As far as I know my DS has NOT received a TWE. He has made this his own from the beginning, so I try not to pry. I have not heard yet if he has checked his portal. And I don't dare ask him to based on all these TWE's. My stomach is turning for him.
