Need some help with college...

[Serenity]

In reality the best option may be to get a 2 year degree from a junior collage and then jump in to the ROTC program at a 4 year school. Depending on your state you may be able to get a full ride from the Guard. (That works here in NM) Unless you are at the ragged forward edge of the GPA crowd a "Name" school is no better than the local state collage, with the reduced number of students (down from the baby boomers) jobs will be plentiful for grads. Also unless you are going be a lifer, plan your military specialty to carry over in to the real world after your term of enlistment is up.
Just a thought,

I dont really expect to get into the Academy, so I was hoping you all could make some suggestions as to some other good schools for studying history. My G.P.A. isn't really all that bad. 3.5 as of right now.

I intend to be a lifer though, I love the Military, what it stands for, the lifestyle, and I want to go active, not guard. As for specialty, the only thing that feels right in this world is flying...

Not very good, which is why I'm looking at other colleges as well.  I know the Air Force won't take you're ACTUAL application until Junior year, so I'll begin all of that in August.

Your grades are not that good?  But you know the Air Force Academy "won't" take yer "ACTUAL" application until when?

Ohhh you sooo funny...  PahLeeez.

You'll soon be flyin a Buffer in a AF Dorm.

And you said before that you have a bad knee?

Again, did you even READ the initial post? Or any subsequent ones other than that little quote?

As for the difference in 'ACTUAL' application, you can submit a form saying you are interested and get your name on the list for more information, but the application process doesn't start until junior year. Listed both on their website, and firsthand from a friend of mine who used to be involved with admissions. I would just ask him, seeing as no one actually reads anything anyone says about the Academy, they simply post their own oppinions. Unfortunately, I have lost his contact info over the years.
