Season's Greetings postcard
Any 2013 applicants receive a happy holidays postcard from the AFA Admissions staff? I post this with a little humor because there is a sticker that says, "Please keep us in mind!" I'm tempted to send the card back to let them know that I do think about them... several times a day.

I received mine. They didn't really have to put that on there. The only time I'm not thinking of the Academy is when I am asleep or taking a test.

Don't read anything into it if you don't get one. They come from the regionals, last yr our DS was the only on this site and serviceacademy forums to receive it....a ton of other kids still got in.

I got mine yesterday. The sticker "Please keep us in mind" made me laugh also.

Ha, they put that on the desk of a few of us preppies and we can't figure out the reason behind it. The closest we got is they gave it to the people have noms in the bag - ICs and priors.

haha, yeaaaaaaah I definitely got that postcard and my dad was telling me where my brother's squadron was and where he slept. I also liked that they put "PLEASE KEEP US IN MIND" that was pretty funny. I do keep them in mind, every single day.
