You said it such a relief. Now the wait begins for USNA.
I guess the waiting game never ends...
Thanks for the congrats.
Where all are you applying? (SA's, NROTC, etc...?)

My son found out he was selected for a four year NROTC-Marine Option scholarship on 24 November.
I've been following the thread here for some time--still waiting on the NROTC Marine Option, but have AROTC 4 year already. I know there are very few slots for the Marine Option----I have heard the next, and only board for the Marine Option, is in February. Does anyone know if they give out more scholarships at the second board or how many they give out nationwide? Also, I heard the first board is a regional board and the second board is a national board-does anyonw know the difference?
Thanks
Spoke with Captain M. today at the event, no word yet for NROTC Marine Corps option scholarships. Here we are at the event, btw, my son is the kid in Blue that took 5th place in the run with the Captain in the background watching his poolies.
I specifically asked about the board giving out info before Thanksgiving and was told the National results had not been given out yet as the board only sat the week before. The week before Christmas was the slated time frame for offers. I'm sure there are ways to get this information but our Captain was pretty definite on this, he even said he sent my e mail to his boss to see if it was true that results were being given out before Thanksgiving and before the web site notifications. Maybe this could be part of your NROTC results? They were given out before Thanksgiving.
Who knows, maybe your officer recruiter has a friend inside the board and you received really early notice.
It was listed on my son's scholarship application status page on 24 November that he had been selected for a 4-yr Marine Option scholarship. We received a call from the recruiter on 3 December to come out and present the scholarship. I can't answer why you were told the offers would not be made prior to Christmas. We were told to expect the results end of November/early December, and in our case it was true. We are in Virginia...maybe that makes a difference. I doubt a Marine would release official board results without the appropriate authority of being able to do so, and therefore highly doubt our son received "really early notice" because his "recruiter has a friend inside the board" who leaked information.
