Portal Update!

Typically 400 is hard to say. Usually, there are are around 500-600 MOC. Some, like 2 of our MOC had more than 1 vacancy and slate. Add another 200 for military related and enlisted, and you could be up to around 800 appointments. This year is only around 1057 total, so that would leave around 250 from the national pool. Not trying to be depressing, just restating that this is not a typical year. Almost 200-300 less appointments than in the past.
 
Keep waiting patiently, guys. No news is good news. If you get disqualified, they'll notify you. So no change in status = possibility of appointment.
 
Whatever you do dont lose sight of your dreams... no status change for me and this is my second time applying. I went to NWP, learned a lot and brought my ACT up to a 33.. This is a rough time for the service academies because of our horrible economy and DoD cuts... Dont feel bad if you dont get in... just keep on trying :)
 
Did all of you who saw your status change get an MOC nomination? All I have is the presidential :/
 
I also have MOC and presidential, maybe the fact that we have a presidential nom and our status changed means that we were selected from that pool. Its impossible to really tell. I said this on another forum, and I'll say it again. For most people it seems that the portal is the last thing to update. This means that it is possible that we received appointments earlier and never heard from our congressmen (maybe because we were presidential appointees?). Which would mean that if you were selected last week or even this week, your portal still would not update for another week or two (assuming this is all true). I don't think I got in congressionally because nobody called me. When I received an appt to USMA, I was called by my MOC.

Long story short, Don't take this portal update to be the definitive yes or no regarding if you got in
 
My portal changed today too! it was quite a relief. Thank you so much for making this post because otherwise I wouldn't have checked right away!!
