    AFROTC Scholarship!

    It came really late, I was waiting on a rejection letter but I ended up getting the notification the day before my birthday. Sweet! Question- I was only accepted to one of the colleges I put down for the scholarship. They didn't specify a college in the forms I got- does this mean my...

    Exercise Induced Asthma...

    I've already done all my remedials and done all my talking with Larry Mullen (Thank you again, I know you'll be reading this!)- I was just wondering if anyone had any success in getting a waiver for my condition or if I should give up hope. I have mild, exercise induced asthma (I just did a...

    Pictures?

    There's only a measly amount of pictures of USMMA in the gallery on this forum- does anyone know where I can find more pictures? Trying to get pumped up if I end up going :)

    MTFs to Complete Remedial

    I've already emailed Larry Mullen on this issue, but I thought I'd ask anyone here if they had a similar experience. I don't know if it's just my circumstances, but Concorde is taking a really long time finding a doctor to complete my remedial. When I have a looming deadline and two issues...

    Who here had (or your son/daughter had) Kings Point as their #1 choice?

    Who here had KP as their first choice, and why? My first choice was the Air Force Academy, mostly because I have a friend going there and had some relatives in the air force. While applying for the Air Force Academy, I learned about USMMA from a mother of someone who went there. I heard...

    Staying in shape... during BCT?

    As someone involved in varsity Cross Country and distance Track and Field, I'm an absolute freak about staying in good running shape. I can be out running 8 miles a day during the off-season, with regular workouts and weight lifting 3-4 days for an hour during the week along with that. This...

    Waivers

    I have two different issues, both unrelated. I was sent remedial information for both issues, and I completed the remedials required for issue 1, but issue 2 is taking a bit longer. Does DoDMERB look at my file as a whole- evaluating all my issues at one time, or could they give me a waiver...

    Cover Letter

    I'm required to get a record of my transcripts and send it in as part of a remedial- my grades this year fell a few points due to a number of situational circumstances happening in my life as of late. If I were to include a cover letter explaining some of these circumstances, would they be...

    Mild Pet Allergies = Disqualification?

    I marked down for DoDMERB (perhaps unintelligently) that I occasionally had very mild allergies related to pollen or pet dander. My allergies were never disruptive and I never took medication, so they're more annoyance than trouble. Currently, I'm in the waiver process and have a test...

    So... What are the chances?

    I got a nomination from my Senator to go to the Air Force Academy. My senator, as far as I know, didn't choose principal nominees. What are my general chances? I know there are a lot of talented people who also received nominations in my state, so I'm assuming for the moment that I won't be...

    Conditional Appointment

    I recently got a conditional appointment to the Merchant Marine Academy. It says that my appointment is contingent upon "continued excellence at school". I've done very well in the past as far as grades, but because I'm taking a number of difficult classes this year, my GPA rests around a 3.0...
