Just learned from my 2019 Mid that ASTB (Aviation Selection Test Battery) score minimums have been increased for Pilot and NFO hopefuls. This is causing some 2019'ers to retake the exam before service selection in a few months in order to meet the new minimums. Semper Gumby...

Hi all, but especially Moms and Dads. Just checking back in on the forum after having been away for a while. I'm a retired USAF Officer and my DD is a Class of 2019 USNA Plebe. I was quite active on this forum through last year's arduous process and thought I'd offer up the opportunity to...

Any appointees out there receive their PTR packages yet? The Admissions FB page mentioned something about them starting to go out the first week of April. Nothing here in FL.

So I was watching a video of remarks the Supe was giving the newly reformed brigade last August (2014). He mentioned the Class of 2018 and though they were just through with Plebe Summer he said that they were not yet "formally part of the brigade". So then, can someone please tell me when the...

Quick question for those out there who have received and accepted their appointments. Did you receive acknowledgement from USNA that your acceptance was received and acknowledged? If not, I guess appointees don't hear anything from USNA until the Permission to Report Package is received...

There was a recent thread or two asking about appointee tours. DD just received an email from Admissions offfering the opportunity to attend an Appointee Day Program. There is a link on the email to reserve one of the following dates: Friday, 3 April Monday, 13 April Friday, 17 April Monday...

Greetings. Can anyone shed some light on whether it is best to accept an appointment immediately if there are applications still pending at other service academies? Does accepting an appointment at one service academy immediately stop a candidate's consideration for appointment to another...

DD woke up this morning to an email from USAFA congratulating her her her appointment to the Class of 2019!!! So excited for her! So, shall we start the appointment thread? Juvat (DD), Appointment, 31 Oct, Presidential, FL-21

I've read that in the past, there was a status change shown on the DODMERB website for the approapriate agency if an LOA or an Appointment is offered. I've seen where some candidates have posted that they learned that their LOA or Appointment is forthcoming via the DODMERB site. Does anyone...

Greetings! Can a BGO perhaps advise how long it would take to learn if CFA scores are acceptable? I know that no news is good news as far as a retake, but how long does it usually take for the USNA to let the candidate know that submitted scores are not acceptable?

My DD received a DODMERB "qualified" notification for both USAFA and USNA back on August 12th following her completion of a remedial request a few days earlier. She received her "qualified" DD2368 notification a few days later in the mail from DODMERB. I just went to the DODMERB website and it...

My DD has fully completed her application and is 3Q. She also holds a Presidential nomination (I'm a retired USAF Officer). As she should be an extremely competitive candidate (yes, aren't all of our kids :)), could she still receive an LOA pending the outcome of her MOC nomination...
