My son got his call around mid-December last year -- right before Christmas.
OK thanks for the information. I was pretty sure that it was around that time because of the threads from a few years ago. I just wasn't sure it things had changed since then. Rocatlin, what was your son's stats since he received the scholarship?
I'll PM you when I get some time.
Hey I am in the same boat as disrancerunner3, would you mind allowing me to see stats?
Do yourself a little favor and don't get too hung up on stats. Stats will get you in the door. What stats won't do is help you once you're in the room so to speak. I will tell you that ACT, GPA, leadership figure into it, but with the Marine Option side the big thing is how your interviews go. Do those 2 or 3 Marine Officers you interview with see that you have potential? Would they advocate for you on a board?
Here is a great article written by a friend of mine that used to sit on the boards.

Physical fitness and leadership help. So do academics. The key thing from the stat perspective is balance.
