<p>Actually, 2010 has 1096 now. We will pass up 2009 at semester I am sure.</p>
<p>Hmm, but I thought only an average of like 950 seniors graduate? Don't tell me '08 is going to loose like 80 between now and the end of May, because I just don't see that happening. Where did you get these numbers from?</p>
<p>There's a monthly newsletter from USAFA that is distributed to parents via the various state parent clubs.The numbers came from that newsletter. It appears that 2008 is going to be a larger than average graduating class.</p>
<p>'08 is supposed to be the first class to graduate 1000 in quite a few years.</p>
<p>Edit: I checked - the last class with over 1000 grads was '94.</p>
<p>My class had sub-900 graduate. 26% attrition rate from inprocessing to graduation.</p>
<p>Edit: I graduated in '06</p>
<p>It looks like 2010 may follow in the footsteps of 2006 at our rate!</p>
<p>I'm a 2012er and just curious as to why such a big drop in numbers, especially towards the 2dig and firstie years?
I was under the impression that people usually don’t make it their first year, and after that, everyone that has made it pretty much finishes off.
Why are people leaving when graduation is in sight?</p>
<p>Usually they are kicked out on academics or honor after they start 2 dig year. A large chunk will leave at the end of 3 dig year before being committed (no longer desire to be here or in the military).</p>
<p>Not only do a significant number choose to leave after two years prior to commitment, but another handful are released at this point in time. The Academy does its best to ensure that those who enter their third year have the capacity to make it through those final two years.</p>
<p>I thought 2010 was down to 1046...? I guess it's somewhere around that number. All I know is that week after week I keep finding out that my friends have left... and it's always a shock because I never expected it.</p>

<p>Can any of you guys give me any tips on the admission process and what I should be doing now? It would be greatly appreciated.</p>
<p>That's a fairly broad question...</p>
<p>Can you give us some info about your class year, stats, or where you are now in the admissions process?</p>
<p>Scratch that - I see this has been handled in another thread.</p>
<p>Wow, 2010 has lost over 20 cadets since that post came out. CAMIS says we're down to 1071</p>
