Still waiting on Summer Seminar decision?

I'm going to give an answer with full caveat that it's nothing but an educated guess...I have no inside info. It's location. For Summer Seminar and STEM specifically.

Do NOT equate this to less chance of appointment application because as everyone has said they're two different things. But your area of CT is likely higher income than most of country, higher awareness of SAs and therefore less ROI for marketing outreach programs like the Summer programs. Nothing more or less.

I get he is likely feeling disappointed, but try to keep it in perspective that it's a marketing program and not the end goal anyway (that's the appointment).

Wish you all the best!

I wonder who is getting in right away then? DS has a 5.02 GPA, varsity lax, multiple successful robotics teams, student govt and more. Not being sour grapes, but seriously wondering what admission for this program is based on? I can't even remember what the application had asked at this point.

5.02 gpa means nothing by itself. Out of what? 7.0? 4.0? There are thousands upon thousands of kids who look similar on paper. Find something else impressive to do this summer. It really doesn’t mean anything to not get in. Mine attended summer stem, varsity athlete, JROTC with leadership and regional award, NHS, volunteer etc. he’s going to the USAFA Flight Academy.

Oh, what you posted "USAFA Flight Academy", I and probably others thought that this was something at the
Air Force Academy (USAFA versus USAF).
