    Just have to brag. I'm excited.

    One hurdle down, one to go. I received a letter today from the RC that says "You received a Letter of Assurance based on the overwhelming strength of your file. West Point will begin tendering most appointments at the end of February 2013 and yours will be in the first wave of packets mailed...

    Re-took the CFA & expiring LOA?

    I was DQ'ed from the class of 2016 due to a broken arm and soon after I was cleared from physical therapy I took the CFA. Muscular atrophy had disastrous results and I failed the pull-ups. I received a notification last week to send in passing results by Jan. 30 otherwise my LOA would expire. I...

    Contacting DODMERB for the medical waiver process

    I broke my arm in June one week before I was going to fly up to West Point. I just completed physical therapy and have full functional movement and strength back to my damaged wrist (Nomination and LOA are secured!). I have the medical forms, diagnosis and release for physical activity. I...

    Accepted for class of 2016, however...

    I was accepted to the class of 2016 at West Point, but I broke my arm two weeks before flying out in a motor accident (I wasn't at fault, and was 5 under the speed limit. Pretty shoddy luck ha). Basically that medically disqualified me for this year, but I was told I had a LOA for the class of...

    Trips home from West Point

    Just a curious question if anyone knows an estimate of the number of applicants this year. I'm kind of curious what the new acceptance rate is (I know last years)

    Corrective Eye Surgery prior to R-Day

    I'm sure this question has been asked before, but I couldn't find one given a few minutes of searching... my vision is about -6 in each eye (give or take .25) and am contemplating Lasik and recovery before R-day. Any suggestions? I don't know if my eye sight will be changing much after now...

    Haven't heard anything at all

    I was skimming through some of the threads here and read about a NWL letter. I haven't received any letter stating I didn't make it on my senator's (or state rep.'s for that matter) ticket and am now on the NWL, yet its already going to be the end of march soon. I'd like to think that the...

    Question about the length of time for a nomination to be received...

    I've been nominated by two state representatives: one of my state's senators (Kay Bailey) and my texas representative Henry Cuellar. I received a call from Kay Bailey's office about a week and a half to two weeks ago asking if I still wanted to attend (obvious answer, yes) and I was to be...
