I had the same questions. The packet is an official appointment that comes in a nice binder. There are a few to-dos included around proving US Citizenship/Eligibility. The bulk of the paperwork will be associated with the forms on-line at the Class of 2028 page (which is still being updated)...

I asked my DS. He did his fingerprinting at the local base and it sounds like they did the whole process all at once. He is going to follow up with his AO to be certain. Thanks!

MY Ds did his fingerprinting a while back. To my knowledge there has been no additional communication regarding additional information for NBIS. Out of curiosity....how was that request for info communicated?

We have been working on just that...trying to find ways to spend time together. It is hard as we are all so busy (DS's schedule is tough) but we are also counting down the days. There aren't that many days left before R-day. We have tickets to see his favorite NBA team and are planning a trip...

Great advice. We had picked up on that earlier and his "minor" passport was expiring this month. His renewed passport arrived in the mail this week so we can check that off the list.

Thank you! That makes perfect sense.

Hi all, just curious what happens after a full appointment is accepted? For clarity, my DS received his full appointment and formally replied that he would be accepting. Along with his response he submitted the requested documentation proving he was an eligible US citizen. He received an...

You should be proud of your accomplishments! I would suggest researching and connecting with others who have experienced CGAS. My DS is accepted to the class of 28' and will be joined by a friend who went to CGAS. They will be classmates. Ultimately they had different paths to USCGA but will...

Sit tight and have faith. I would continue to delay any commitment if they are second and third choice schools and the USCGA is truly your personal or DS/DD's goal. They will wait or they will lose the opportunity to coach you or your DS/DD. My nephew just walked on as a freshman to his...

CONGRATULATIONS!

Congratulations!

DS just received a call with an offer of appointment.

My DS just texted me and he just received a call as well. Was also told Bears Den on Friday.

Easiest thing to do is go to Dodmets.com. Use your social and see if you are in the system. That will tell you.

Yes. DS applied EA on 9/28 and was directed to Dodmets. He was given a Q by Dodmerb on 10/30. If your info has been sent to Dodmets then you should be able to set up your account and begin.

Yes, plus all OTC usage (i.e; Naproxin - as needed). Be thorough. Makes it much easier in the long run. We obtained medical records to compile the list. It was possible for us because we only ever used one hospital network (hospital, PCP, and urgent care facilities).

Thanks Capt. So theoretically, if an applicant had completed DODMerb early on and received a Qualified determination that could serve to strengthen the application if admissions was aware during review? I suppose it could go the other way if the determination was negative as well.

It just occurred to me that I am not aware what happens after DODMerb makes a determination. I assume they notify the academy(s). If that happens prior to a completed application review, does it then become part of the admissions team decision tree? Anyone have insight on how this plays out?
