Awesome! Also heard from dd today who is loving CIET despite the drill sergeants' best efforts. She said she's tired but really loving the experience. Crazy girl. Anyway, I am going to put a care package together for her tonight. Thanks for your help all. Happy Independence Day!

My daughter arrived at Fort Knox yesterday for 4 weeks of CIET. This morning she texted me a mailing address and I want to send her some encouraging letters during her time there. But I'm wondering if it is worth sending a care package as well. Does anyone know what CIET cadets can and cannot...

It depends on the needs of the Army at the time you are preparing to commission, and where you rank overall in your battalion. It is done.

My daughter will be!

Not to mention, not a free ride when you need to provide the name and contact information for your dentist.....

DD is supposed to report to MMI June 22 for pre CIET training. The army is flying here there from our local airport. Any idea when she should receive her travel information? It seems odd that 19 days out she still hasn't received anything. MMI told her she would receive flight info by email...

My daughter's packing list actually said contacts are not allowed and that she should bring two pair of glasses. On another note, are cadets allowed to o bring/use cell phones during CIET?

That's so interesting. My DD also really liked MMI when she visited and she felt there was something more serious about the Cadets at MMI vs. Norwich. Anyway, she had a real sense that she belonged at MMI and that is where she will be attending this fall. She will be in their ECP program and...

Thank you!

Does anyone know when the majority of NAPS appointments go out to candidates?

So you're saying that if you are CPR with a nomination, no need for a waiver, etc., that you're pretty much out of luck for this year? Even out of the running for a NAPS or Foundation appointment?

DDs portal still says CPR. maybe those of us still CPR are not on the wait list, but are still eligible for NAPS or Foundation? Just trying to be optimistic.

I have a question for the recipients of the 4 year AROTC scholarships. Do you still need to pay your college/university the first semester tuition, expenses, and your uniform fee out of pocket before you contract in the fall? If so, does the Army pay you back for these expenses? And are you...

DD still on the island. Having serious doubts about her plan B also, so now we feel like we may need to do some late April scrambling. I wish the was a way to know if she is CPR because she is still competitive, or if she just hasn't even been reviewed yet by the admissions board.

Where have you all found decent scholarship sites? This is something we haven't found very easily. I gave my daughter a huge book from the library with tons of scholarships in them, but they were all so specific. After reading through the book her comments included, "If I was a big supporter...

dmcrae444, this list is an ongoing and growing list which has been made from members of this forum reporting when they receive or accept their USNA appointment. Oh, how I would love to be adding dd to this list. :)

Does anyone have an estimate as to how many have received appointments to NAPS class of 2017?
