Good Afternoon,
I have the opportunity to participate in the cadet exchange program at USAFA this fall. From the initial minimal information I've learned I'll be equivalent to a second-class cadet. Coming from a SMC, I think I am a little more accustomed to some of the expectations of a service academy, but will be the first to admit I think I'm going to stick out like a fish out of water, as this was my first year in AFROTC. I was wondering if any current or past students had any experience with exchange student from AFROTC programs; willing to provide a short narrative of the experience and what sustains or improves you would have for them. I was wondering what I should pack/ allowed to pack, i.e. a minifridge, or if I'll be able to bring a car up. Am I expected to participate in leading the incoming fourth-class cadets or take more of a observation role?
Other inquiries: Will I have a chance to participate in the Soaring Program, or what opportunities are afforded to me or restricted. How much civilian clothing should I bring and how often am I permitted to wear it?
