USAFA Applications down 27.6%?

[Falcon74]

It will be interesting to see the data on the Class of 2027. Was last years's drop in application a one-time event or the beginning of a trend?

I wonder if the applicant pool for 2028 will be back to normal based off this, seems like its bouncing back from 2026.

Does anyone have any insight as to why the appointment offers sent number is so low compared to the average? Maybe it was just the number sent at the time the slide was done?

What average are you referring?

This was a set point in time - as of February 28, 2023.

Aha! That makes much more sense....I was wondering the same thing at first glance. "Only 350 appointments?!?!?"....the fact that it was in February and process wasn't complete makes complete sense though.

Another interesting fact is that all the '27 appointees 'Got! Off! The! Bus!'. Interestingly, that wasn't a given for quite a few years prior.
