FAFSA Day!

SENIORS!

 Chances are great that you qualify for money for college that you do not have to pay back! But first, you HAF-TA FAFSA! The FAFSA is the Free Application for Federal Student Aid, and 9 out of 10 students who complete it go to college. Don't worry about filling out a complicated form -- you can get FREE assistance with your FAFSA on Wednesday, November 16 here at school. But you must sign up for an appointment with Ms. Annie Martin in the Counselor's Office. 

You can email her or any other counselor to make an appointment as well!

Who Are We Looking For? 

The United States Air Force Academy strives to create a highly qualified and truly diverse cadet wing at the Academy each year. In addition to diversity in terms of race, ethnicity and gender, we are looking to expand our applicant pool across individual characteristics defined by our diversity definition, including:

• Personal life experiences, including having overcome adversity by personal efforts

• Geographic background, such as region, rural, suburban, urban

• Socioeconomic and educational background, such as academic excellence and/or whether an individual would be a first generation college student

• Cultural knowledge and language abilities, with particular emphasis on cultures and languages of strategic importance to the Air Force

• Work background, including prior enlisted service

• Physical abilities, including athletic prowess

• Age, though applicants must be within statutory parameters for academy attendance

• We take a holistic view of our applicants.  They're more than a GPA or standardized test score.  We're looking for students who have a desire to serve and seek an education that is on par with highly selective colleges and universities.   For our top diversity candidates, we offer the Falcon Visitation Experience.  This opportunity gives prospective students an opportunity to spend three days on our campus to get a first-hand look at what United States Air Force Academy life is like.  If you have students who may be a good fit for this program, please have them talk to their admissions advisor.

Campus Tours

If students are interested in pursuing an appointment to the United States Air Force Academy and plan to visit the campus, you may wish to participate in an escorted tour and admissions briefing. Offered during the academic year to middle school, high school, and post-high school students, tours can help individuals gain a deeper understanding of the United States Air Force Academy environment. Escorted tours are conducted regularly throughout the academic year and require reservations 14 days in advance.

We also offer Game Day tours. After the tour, participants will be allowed to purchase discounted tickets to cheer on our AF Falcons for football, hockey, and men’s and women’s basketball.
