Thanks for all the positive thoughts! I just checked, and have been granted a wavier by USMA! Should be getting an appt. in the mail soon. :biggrin: Just wanted to add, that Mr. Mullen has been a great help! :smile: He even took the time to reply to me while he was at a Broadway play! :eek...

Yes, I have a nomination and passed the CFA. Nomination has been posted on my USMA Candidate page since early December. Thanks! M19

I just looked at the DoDMERB website, and it says: Agency: ' US Military Academy Admission Status: Offer Extended Admission Status Change Date: 20-JAN-2010 Current Medical Status: Pending Waiver Submission/Review (as of 18-DEC-09 ) So would this be reflecting the LOA I...

Last year at the second session of SLS, there were about 3 kids who were in swimming who were able to go to the pool everyday. So, I think as long as you contact West Point early enough and let them know that you need pool access, it shouldn't be a problem. M19 :cool:

Wilson - sent you pm. M19

I talked with my admissions rep at West Point, and last year they withdrew 2 offers of admission to people who had had LOA's. Moral of story, they want people taking hard classes and TRYING, and if you don't get the subject, go in for the extra help, because your admissions rep can still help...

As far I recall, I didn't get an email stating my file was complete. However, I did have several specific questions, so I called my Regional Admissions Officer at West Point to clarify and was assured everything was in. I would say wait a few days, and if you don't hear back, call West Point...

Thanks! By the way, when did people find out about their nom from Burris? Good Luck to Everyone! M19 :cool:

I had looked into applying for Girl's State last year, however it conflicted with both USMA SLS and USAFA SS, so I ended up not even applying. I also just received my LOA from USMA, so while Girl's/Boy's State can help an applicant, it probably won't make or break your appliation as long as...

Thanks! Just the waiting game for me right now, since I applied to all the noms I could, MOC & Senators & VP. How about you? Have you heard anything back yet? Good Luck! M19

I'm pretty much in same boat (tank!) as Chockstock, just waiting for DoDMERB to process my medical wavier, and then waiting to hear back about noms. I also got LOA late November, dated 25 Nov., and am from IL. I went to SLS, and another friend from SLS in TX also got LOA and nom recently...

Depending on the district in IL, it can be very competitive. I know in 13 IL, there are at least 25+ people applying for sure, and several others as well, which is a lot for one district and a state with no Academy! Did not know that Burris had decided already; I knew that Durbin would be...

LOA's are still being sent out. I got one yesterday dated the 25th of November. Although I had been in contact with my Admissions Officer at West Point, and already knew that I would probably be getting an LOA soon, it was nice to finally get that letter! I had finished my application...
