Info

welcome Before deciding to pursue or accept an offer of appointment to the Air Force Academy, ask yourself if you are prepared, mentally and physically, to meet the demands of the Academy and, ultimately, of service to our nation. Dedication to our nation presents many opportunities and challenges. The modern air, space, and cyberspace force depends on speed, mobility, global range, and flexibility. Air and space power also focuses on the capabilities to deter potential enemies, to fight, and to win. If you are committed to being an active team member in building the world’s most-respected air, space, and cyberspace force and realize that some degree of sacrifice is inherent to the concept of service, then the Air Force Academy is the place to begin!
