My DS will graduate from AFA next month then go to AFIT this fall. After graduating from AFIT is there a chance of getting a UPT slot?

I forgot to mention John Baylor Test Prep, http://www.johnbaylorprep.com/ for ACT/SAT prep. It helped my son A LOT on his ACT scores. If you do all the exercises and practice tests and practice, practice, practice you will do well on it. Use a stopwatch when practicing so that you will get used to how fast you have to answer questions to be able to complete each section.

A great source of information is http://www.serviceacademyforums.com/index.php. This website covers all of the service academies. As a junior in high school you need to take the ACT or SAT as soon as possible. The AFA superscores so you can take it multiple times to get the best possible composite score. Here is information on the Nomination process: http://www.academyadmissions.com/admissions/the-application-process/nominations/ You need to have good grades, participation in extracurricular activities, volunteering. President of your class, National Honor Society, etc all add to points to your application. It is not easy but my son got into the AFA right out of high school. He is a senior majoring in Mechanical Engineering and will probably be going to Grad School after graduation next May. He has said on several occasions that he wouldn't want to be anywhere else. It is a great school that offers a first class education. There are tremendous opportunities there. My son has been a glider instructor for the last two years and has really enjoyed it. Good luck!

What exactly does TBD mean in this case?
