Deferred is not denied. I believe this is the first year they did this. My DS was 2 years ago and in EA you either got in, got CGAS, waitlisted or denied. You never got the chance to compete again the next pool. Many many of his friend got in during regular admission. You are well qualified...

Coach called the evening before it was posted in bears den. Bears den is where to look today!

I would check spam on email. The dodmerb stuff comes from a different address.

Go to NCAA.com I believe. You fill out a whole bunch of pages and then pay them (which in my opinion is what NCAA is all about). This gives them the info to clear you or make sure that you are compliant with the academic rules they set. You end up with a number. Save that somewhere because you...

What we did when my son first started thinking of CGA was to sign up for the tour. We then contacted the coach and told him we would be there and would like to meet him. It was a 5 minute meet but it put him on the radar and he let us know the one place over the summer that he evaluates...

The date changed last year for S day. Original stuff said July 3 I believe and ended up changing to be June 26. Don't be surprised if it's not what it says right now. First rule is Semper Gumby! Always flexible. lol

Last year DS was told minimum 650 math 650 verbal. I don't know if they stuck to that or not but that is what he was told

Totally get it. I was a worried mess for my DS all last year. If I could have wrapped him in bubble wrap I would have. lol. In the end everyone says things work the way they should. Good luck to you DD. Mine is 4/c and is as happy as a 4/c can be. [emoji4]

Bears Den will update. If anything like last year around Christmas the actual appointment will arrive at your home. I believe that might be only if you accept

DS part of class of 21. They lost people during this past summer. Some just decided this is not what they want and some had injuries. As I understand it depends on the injury if they get a deferment to the next class. If it's something that does not medically disqualify you to serve then your...

Last year there was a large roll out the week of thanksgiving. My DS received notification on 11/21/16 of his appointment. Hang in there. The wait is awful but the payout is huge!

My DS updated his application after he submitted EA to add an internship he received. His AO added it and it was considered in the review board. He is CGA freshman (4/c) now

This is %100 true. My father was a 1944 graduate of KP. During his sea terms he went to war. He told us stories of being a student and having to demonstrate the "new" dry suits to the guys on the ships. KP students and grads are vital to our country.

Yes. DS received multiple. Only 1 needed to be given directly to the institution. That money goes directly to their CG account.

Thank you. Great explanation. My son is a cadet at USCGA and my father is a KP grad. Both are great schools. All that attend have much to be proud of. I was rooting though for CGA on Saturday. Lol
