<p>I sincerely doubt that 11,000 kids apply to summer seminar. If you could provide me with a link to that I would really appreciate it. I am thinking it is more like 3500-4000…which would make for a 50 percent acceptance rate.</p>
<p>i think that the 11,000 was referring to the total number of applicants to the Academy. </p>
<p>vcm2007 - also have your offical GPA and your class size, and an updated list of your ECs and awards will make it easier to fill out the application quickly.</p>
<p>ok, thanks</p>
<p>peskemom, Interesting–we’ll talk later about her experience. (My mid was only interested in USNA/NROTC.) Although, USAFA is in a stunning location for us skiers/snowboarders (daughter). By the way, 2006 Navy/Air Force football game is in Colorado. </p>
<p>If I remember correctly, USAFA conducts an interview prior to their summer program.</p>
<p>Janell had no prior AFA interview for Summer Seminar. In fact - she applied Jan. 1st and by Jan. 3rd last year in her email box she learned she was accepted.</p>
<p>By the way, Janell wrote an 8 page report, mostly for her own interest, comparing her USNA/USAFA Summer Seminar experiences. I am convinced this was a factor in her LOA. She wrote it to answer all her family and friends questions…and forwarded on a copy to her BGO. He was so impressed, he forwarded it on to the San Diego Regional BGO. Less than a week later, her NASS Squad Leader emails her that USNA Admissions got a copy and called the Squad Leader to tell him about it! </p>
<p>We only learned at the USS Peleliu reception on Dec. 27th that it truly was the regional director who forwarded on this analysis to USNA Admissions…</p>
<p>If anyone is interested, send me a private email, I’ll forward it on to you.</p>
