    No Nomination, but hopeful?

    Next Year There is always next YEAR! It is a true statement. My son stayed with it, re-applied, jumped thru all the hoops and was re-nominated. We just received word the other day from his Congressman that he recieved an appointment to the Naval Academy! He had taken the advise of the Blue...

    Are the appointed willing to share their stats?

    Thank you Dolphins2012, it is just disappointing when a BGO tells you that your DS is one of the most qualified they have seen in 3 years and get a TWE. The letter from the Navy stated (sure it was a form letter) to try again, etc...improve on grades (not sure how you can improve on almost a...

    Conclusions

    I agree that this entire process is a bit frustrating just because of the amount of months involved with applying. Then you feel like getting the nomination(s) is another big hurtle and relief. Then the 3Q letter...then wait and wait. I wish I would have found this forum before my son...

    QNV, TWE, or AD

    Thanks flieger83 for the info on the basket ball throw... hopefully since my son's other scores were at the top of the scale and he has an average mile run of 4:40 they will let the BB throw pass... have not heard anything from the USAF yet. The Navy said it was a pass already on the CFA but I...
