I received mine today.

DD = dear daughter DS = dear son BFE = big fat envelope TWE = thin white envelope

I'm from Michigan (Wayne County), and I received notification of a scholarship on March 7. I don't know if it's the same board, but I figured I'd mention it

I received an email saying I earned a Type 7 scholarship, so I checked the portal and it had the "Congratulations!" message. A few hours later it changed back like nothing had ever happened for me as well...

It doesn't mean anything one way or the other. I was not asked to send in my 7th semester grades, and I even emailed my RD to find out if I needed to send it in. I was told that I would only need to send in my final transcript after graduation if offered an appointment. Nevertheless, I sent it...

Well, I just found out today (after the DoDMERB site went back online) that I was granted a medical waiver! :smile:

I was disqualified back in early August due to "history of knee dislocation," and my status under USNA has been "Pending Waiver Submission/Review." I know all the SAs have their own timeframes, but on 11/4 USAFA told me they would request a waiver for me and on 12/10 I was granted the waiver. Is...

I know some people didn't have waivers requested until recently, but I received notice on 11/4 that USAFA requested a waiver and I found out on 12/10 that the waiver was granted. That's just the timeframe I had, to give you an idea.

1) BFE - Big Fat Envelope 2) Members of Congress nominate candidates to each academy, they do not appoint them. The appointment thread refers to candidates who have received a nomination and have been accepted (appointed) by the academy.

I also just got a letter from Levin (two days ago) stating that I won't receive a nomination since I have one from another source. I apologize that they couldn't get your gender right. :frown:

This whole deferred/not deferred thing is all kind of confusing. My USNA portal has had my nom for 2 weeks now, with no notice of needing to send in a 1st semester transcript. I emailed my RD and he said that I don't need to send in my 7th semester transcript (if offered an appt, then I need to...

Levin noms? I understand Levin not double nominating. Is there anyone else in MI who applied for a nomination from Levin and hasn't heard yet? I'm not expecting a nomination from him given that I already have one to both USNA and USAFA, but I'm just curious...

I wouldn't be surprised if the timeframe for waivers varies based on the reason for disqualification, but from my experience, I was notified on 11/4 that USAFA was considering a waiver for me and on 12/10 that a waiver was granted. However, that was just the time for me, but I hope everything...

Applied EA and still waiting. Good luck to all of you!:thumb:

Congrats! That's fantastic that you already have an offer of appointment. Stabenow nominated me to USNA, and Bentivolio nominated me to both USNA and USAFA. Levin doesn't matter much to me either at this point. It's all a waiting game for the rest of us now.

Thank you! I received a nom from Sen. Stabenow, and one of my friends received a call from my dist. rep., but I haven't heard anything from him yet.

Has anyone heard from Senator Levin or Rep Bentivolio (MI-11) yet? I know Senator Stabenow already notified those she nominated.
