Summer Seminar

<p>Has anyone heard from the Academy about SS? I have had my interview and know that we will definitely hear by March, just wondering if anyone has heard early</p>

<p>Haven't heard anything from the AFA about summer seminar... Just waiting, ah the joys of time :)</p>

<p>haha the lovely class of 2013, welcome aboard young ones... ;)</p>

<p>AF16, one to speak eh? Just wait a few more months. ;)</p>

<p>oh boy, its not even march and the cadre are already on to me for BCT... ;)</p>

<p>nope, haven't heard anything yet....still waiting</p>

<p>haha AF16 our time isnt quite here yet.. just a few more months though :) don't rush it, please! haha</p>

<p>So those who are experienced in the ways of the academy; any advice to us thirteeners to get the most out of Summer Seminar? Assuming we get in of course :)</p>

<p>Anything about admissions either?</p>

<p>This may not be that important to you, but for summer seminar get your stuff in as early as possible. the way it works is they send you a list of mini-classes they offer and you rank the ones you want to take in order of preference and the so-called "good ones" fill up fast, particularly those dealing with flight. Lots of people want to do aviation-related seminars so if you really want one get it back to them ASAP. Also, remember to enjoy yourself! Summer seminar was an absolutely great time.</p>

<p>haha, easy HNeedle, i wont follow suit with last year and begin a countdown already... ;)</p>

<p>(if i remember correctly it began in January or at some point very early???) :rolleyes:</p>

<p>redhead, quick, start a countdown!</p>

<p>haha, exactly the response I was hoping for... ;)</p>

<p>134 days, actually, just in case anyone was wondering :) i never went to SS, but from what i heard it's fun and a great experience.. it wont give you an accurate portrayal of life there, so i'd recommend coming your senior year for a tour or visit, and you could get some of us 4 digs-to-be to show you around! but until then, enjoy SS and your summer, get everything in as soon as possible, and come for a visit sometime!</p>

<p>watch the site and double check ur app went through properly... (mine glitched and all those questions like "do you participate in any extracurricularss?" were all answered NO, every single one of them arghhh...) :(</p>

<p>Has anyone got selected for the seminar yet......i had all yeses on the questions...but my ACT test scores were horrible?.....do they look only the ACT scores or other things like AFJROTC and such? Thank You</p>

<p>what were your ACT scores and we might give you a better idea???</p>
