<p>Nor would I presume to sway you one way or the other, but it does sound like you want USAFA moreso than Yale (I must disagree with the point that Yale would give you more oppertunities than USAFA, however). Ultimately, you must make your own decision. The decision you make will affect the rest of your life, not your father’s. Think about what you want to do, what environment would best fit you as a person. Picture where you will be in 10 or 20 years with a Yale education as opposed to a USAFA education and figure out which future looks more appealing. Only you can determine the course of your own life. As long as you make your own decision, you won’t go wrong. Good luck.</p>
