Also headed to Max 1. Roll your shirts and towels like it says in the FTM so you can just put them where they belong in your dorm TD-0. I've heard some people have had hours to prepare their rooms and others have had barely time at all depending on when you arrive at Maxwell. There are gonna be...

I just wore my service dress. He was pretty laid back, in fact, he hardly asked me anything at all. Basically he gave me straight 5's and wrote extremely generous answers to the interview questions. He read his answers to me and asked if they sounded good. Then he used 2-3 lines writing...

I was interviewed by a Chief as all the officers were unavailable for an interview. They hadn't really told him anything either, just gave him the call that he needed to do an interview apparently. The guy handling my paperwork said I was called in for a second interview because the first...

I contacted my coordinator as I hadn't heard anything back from the individual scheduling my interview. She informed me that the board was "on standby" until my interview because they wanted more information. I asked if it were possible to be awarded the scholarship at the second interview and...

Isn't it too late for that? They made me drive over an hour to the first interview and now on last minute notice they want to do another one 5 minutes away from my house. What a smooth process this seems to be. :unhappy:

Today I received a call and was informed that Pensacola wanted me to interview again within the next 2 days. My first interviewer said I did extremely well(back in August) and he thought I had a good shot at a scholarship, so why are they asking for another interview? Is the board on the fence...

We're in the same boat. During my interview I was told I was the best applicant he'd spoken with, so it kind of stings to see I may not have made it at the first board.

My application has been sitting at: "Application has been submitted online Your electronic application has been received and is being processed ... Etc..." for about a month now and I heard that the board met on the 23rd. Does this mean I missed the September board since my application never...

Oh alright, thank you. Looks like I'm not the only one with Embry-Riddle as my first choice. Maybe I'll see him there (:

My portal has been on final processing since the third week of August. Everyone I spoke to assured me it'd be seen at the first board at the end of the month. Has it or has it not? I'm going to be less than satisfied if my coordinator flat out gave me wrong information. I don't mean to be...

Agreed. Luckily I'm Tier 2 under Astrophysics.

Dang, a little disappointed about missing that but it sounds like I should be okay. My scores are above all the service academy averages and I think I'm doing fairly well in extracurricular activities as well. My NROTC schools would be Embry-Riddle Daytona Beach, University of Colorado Boulder...

Hello everyone! Following my decision to abandon my application for a service academy(would rather go to a civilian college), I've decided to apply for the Navy scholarship, but I've got a few questions. On the references, how does it work? Are your references emailed and asked to fill...

Yes. They don't tell you this but math and science are double weighted... So I've heard from a '13 grad.

Yes. I should have clarified in the original post.

Just a few quick questions about Color Guard(not to be confused with Honor Guard). Couldn't find it anywhere on the forums. Does the Academy consider Color Guard a sport? It's physically demanding and essentially a team activity. Does the Academy or Texas A&M Corp of Cadets have a Color Guard...

He still would have gotten the Academy offer had he accepted the Falcon scholarship, correct?

Congrats mate. The hope you've given me and plenty others has helped me keep fighting towards an appointment next year. Hopefully in a little over a year I'll have the opportunity to thank you in person!

Would using anti-depressants say over a year ago be something to be concerned about? What if it's only around 7 months at the time of the exam?

Daughter or son's comparison? Either the 17% is bad or the 83%, just wondering.
