I couldn't agree more. And with LOA's being sent out as late as they are, now is not the appropriate time to be worrying and anxious
Hahahaha! Is there an appropriate time for that?

Save your energy - LOAs aren't coming out for another month.
Why is that, anyway?

..... But how come they have only been announced of this in such short-notice?
It really hasn't been. The date has been fluctuating for several weeks now in anticipation of the release of the LOA guidance.
Oh okay. My ex-AO thought it would be in August.
And here's a kicker -
Some without LOAs will get their appts BEFORE some with LOAs.
So relax a little - enjoy being a Senior!
And try to refrain from wearing out the grass to and from the mailbox.
The Academic Board establishes the LOA criteria and that information has just been disseminated to the RCs.

So Buff can the general criteria for an LOA this year be shared with the board?
WCS above a certain threshold will be considered for a LOA but I don't know what the threshold is.
Also, class compositions goals play into who gets a LOA. WP has certain percentages that they aim for of various groups - scholars, leaders, soldiers, athletes, minorities, and women. And this is just a WP thing - USNA and USAFA do not have class composition goals.
The RCs now have this info and they can move forward in reviewing candidates for LOAs.
Do you know if the criteria for minorities has changed, buff?
Despite the fact that LOAs will not go out until September, will those candidates who completed their applications very early (July) be taken note of and acknoweldged for their early completion?
