    Deferred from EA at CGA... next steps?

    Yes, I would notify USCGA about ROTC and 'some' monetary scholarships awarded, but not necessarily mail in all letters. My daughter was accepted EA but was awarded ROTC and notified of finalist status in a Gen Hugh Shelton scholarship program at NC State after her application packet was...

    Flag ceremony & shoulder board ceremony

    Agree, if Mystic is in commuting distance, make the trip. We did not come up from NC, but my mother and D's godmother who live in Baltimore took the Amtrak up to CT and were able to spend some time with her(and take a few other swabs without parents) out for dinner at Olive Garden! As for the...

    The Three H's

    We will definitely be up for Parents Day weekend. (Regardless of how this may interfere with our daughter's 'long Columbus Day weekend plans' :yllol:). Hope to see some of y'all there. Everyone looked great from pics I've seen posted on the Parents Ass'n website!

    Company/POBoxes notifications

    Our D has liked all companies she has been in - sad to leave but soon 'at home' in her new company. 2014 swabs and parents, don't worry - if you partake in activities at CGA evening before R-day you'll have a chance to 'meet and greet' other incoming 4/C from your SS company. They usually post...

    Company/POBoxes notifications

    Hilarious!! :yllol: Maybe that's why my daughter no longer in SS company Echo (terrible sense of direction) and 4/C Charlie (history her 'least favorite' class). She's in Hotel now.

    Coast Guard Unit Commendation awarded to USCGA

    It will be interesting to see which groups the awarding authority has included in this recognition (since list probably already provided with the unit award). Sounds like it is at the Commanding Officer's discretion to include individuals that do not meet the time-in-unit requirements.

    Any Suggestions.....

    Hmmm. Not sure everyone hear would agree about 'center of the universe' :yllol: but we did take advantage of D attending school in Northeast and enjoyed a visit NYC during Thanksgiving break last year. Boston is still on our 'places to travel to' list before D graduates! So far our...

    Coast Guard Unit Commendation awarded to USCGA

    By the 50% criteria Luigi posted - Classes of 2009, 2010 and 2011 should clearly meet. :thumb: Classes of 2008 (graduating May 2008) and 2012 (entering very late June 2008) may be 'just under' (by a few weeks) the 50% threshold. I really don't know how leave periods, etc. may affect...

    Coast Guard Unit Commendation awarded to USCGA

    Last year I recall Graduation video was posted. This year there may be some delays or technical glitches. My D reported there have been some significant electrical power failures on campus this week (some of which may persist for a few weeks). Perfect timing :eek:!

    Misc. questions

    No BCG's (thank goodness) - lol! Don't know about the transition lenses, we just sent D with 2 pairs of regular lens glasses and she had separate prescription sunglasses. I would suggest having at least one pair be non-transitions in case it's an issue.

    printer/monitor/subwoofers?

    We ordered printer at end of swab summer so she had it for beginning of 4/C year... we did not order a monitor for her at beginning of school - saved that for a 4/C Christmas present. Only so many 'gift' ideas for cadets so save some things for later....:rolleyes: other gift ideas 'ideas' -...

    Making of an Officer DVD

    As An Admissions Partner I received my Making of an Officer DVD's from the CGA Admissions Office (and the Admissions Officers do carry and give out copies when on the road). Objee may be able to answer whether additional copies can be obtained from Admissions Office.

    Wisdom Teeth

    Suggest you get your Panographic Xrays done as soon as possible and ask your dentist their recommendation (which may or may not agree with CGA dentist recommendations!) If dentist says they are close, go ahead and get it done. Other candidates have it done preemptively only because it is...

    For those who have appts. and those who wait

    Wow CenTex Dad--my daughter definitely did not 'refold' all of her clothes when she came home. She is still 'cluttered' in her ways at home - but I think it's hysterical to hear her fuss at her 2 younger sisters about them needing to clean up after themselves :yllol:. She flew out of NC...
