My daughter is interested in seeing the campus/cadet life once more before making her final decision. We reached out to her AO, but I was wondering if anyone knew if there are any remaining in April?

Even if there are no official AEP days left on the schedule, she could reach out to the coach of her sport (if she's been in contact) or the AO and ask if any other dates are a possiblity. Sometimes it is possible to have a visit arranged even if it doesn't match the scheduled dates.
 
The base is also open to anyone with a valid military or state ID. You can always arrange to meet someone on campus and they can show you around. You wouldn't be allowed in the barracks, but most of the other buildings are open. Additionally, if you schedule a meeting with a coach or faculty member, they should be able to show you some classes or practices.
 
If you need to see the place and can't go on an official date call and see what can be arranged. They moved a Bear's Day when my DD was looking at things and we couldn't make the new date. But they just had us show up anyway on the date that worked. We couldn't see too much because there was an extended power outage and many places were dark, but we got a lot of time with an Admissions person while sitting outside where we could see. It depends on what you want to see or hear, I guess, so call and see what they can offer.
 
Thanks for everyone's information. She has been on campus before and spent time with the athletic team, toured etc. I was hoping for more of an AEP so she would stay overnight and attend classes. With graduation coming up etc., she'll have to make her decision without another visit.
