they will send you a letter home, but the website you used to do the PCQ will become your candidate kit, it is all online, and no official forms are mailed home except medical info. you will simply enter your ssn and bday to access... mid june is when they come out i believe...

The entire process is done online. I believe either we (2012) or 2011 was the first class to do it completely online.

I don't know Petko... it seems like it was a bit closer to 2012!

Blue also matches the uniforms a bit better. Do we have to wear those big bright trucker hats I saw on USAFA Webguy's website during 2011's BCT?

Yes, you'll be wearing blue ones. As far as matching your uniform goes, I'd actually have to disagree. The only place your class color shows up on any uniform is on the exemplar tab on your (post-recognition) A-jacket. Blue is cool, sure, but a blue tab on a blue background isn't really...visually exciting, I guess. Gray, red, and gold stand out much more nicely, in my opinion. | |

Yeah, probably meant 21%. But with only 1266 admitted out of the original 9163 applicants, those admitted are in the minority. | |
