<p>Does anyone here know when the 2007-2008 academic year begins at USAFA? My D will be there for 1st semester as an exchange cadet from West Point–we’re trying to determine if she has any time off to come home between Air Assault School and reporting to the AF academy.</p>
<p>Hi Shogun, nice to see you posting! I know that the cadet wing returns on Sat. August 4th. Transition would extend to the following Wednesday (where they get books, etc.) and then classes would start on the next day, Thursday. I'm sure about the fourth; less sure about clases starting on the following Thursday. Good luck!</p>
<p>BTW, you have to be a member of the forum to view it. A lot of the other CCers are on it, so it's a good forum for Service Academy Applicants and parents.</p>
<p>Thanks guys--last night she emailed me and said that she may be going to the Royal Military Academy at Sandhurst England instead of Air Assault so the dates look like there's not too much wiggle room to see Mom and Dad in between Sandhurst and her semester at AF. Its going to be a crazy summer for her this year as she also spends a month in Hawaii in June with a Military Intelligence Unit of the 25th Infantry Division. Oh to be 20 years old again......and smarter.....:)</p>
