Well, the wait is just about over!
Last year was my son's senior year. As soon as his app was 100% complete, he immediately got a referral to the Foundation. Within 3 days of getting the application to the Foundation, we drove to Annapolis and he interviewed there, accepting a Foundation scholarship to prep school for a year.
So, now he's almost finished! Capt. Wallace of the USNA Foundation will take the academic records of the Foundation students to the Admissions Board this Thursday.
Here's my question--has anyone been through this process? How long from the board meeting this Thursday until he hears news? And how will he hear? A call from his MOC? A letter? How long does it take? (I guess that's more than one question!)
His grades are GREAT from his prep year. While it was initially a great disappointment to him to have to wait a year, we all agree that this was absolutely the best thing that could have happened--he's grown so much this year: athletically, academically, psychologically. He'll be well prepared!
Now just to wait.....
