So, in my son's case, he had a nomination for USNA but not for USAFA. He completed his application for USAFA and is currently listed on his online app as a candidate but no nomination. We found out he is likely now not qualified for USNA due to a colorblindness issue. However, he is qualified for USAFA medically. Does the lack of a nomination hurt him as far as the national pool is considered? The MOC office told us to pick one and if interested, the other academy would tell them and they would issue the nomination. We selected USNA because we believed there would be more opportunities in the field he wants to study (Mechanical Engineering). As far as other reasons, he was favoring USAFA. Did we shoot down his chances? I appreciate input from you or any others on this....
