It was an LOA. The person that called was his admission counselor contact and told him to check his portal this morning because he was being offered a Letter of Assurance. Sure enough, it was there this morning. His Congressman told him the same thing, that he had been notified that DS would be receiving an LOA from the USAFA. We are still on cloud 9. DS has the MOC interviews in the am and this just took some pressure off but he knows that he still needs that nomination. Also, DS is not a recruited athlete and is not a 1400 SAT candidate but checks almost every box from a 15 hour a week part-time job, to top 15% of class, to 3 sport varsity letter, captain of 2 varsity sports, tons of community service for a project he started to being selected to represent his school on Mr. Homecoming Court by faculty and staff. I just want to tell others, don't think your grades or AP classes or SAT scores are not good enough. It is by far the whole person concept. I say, if you want it, then go for it! Good luck!
