For one MOC in MD, so far no one completed their application so no qualifed candidate.
As of two days ago, the NWL numbered just shy of 400 names. Many more will be added as the 31 Jan deadline for nominations arrives. The RCs are busy as can be, as this year's class is arguably the most competitive ever, surpassing even the class of 2014.
One important point to remember is that of the 350 candidates who will be accepted off the NWL, many slots have already been used due to LOAs which were granted to candidates early on who were not principle nominees. Those folks were never "on" the waiting list per se, but rather their slots are often deducted against the NWL total (if they cannot be charged to a MOC vacancy).
Best of luck. Keep your fingers crossed.
Just for my anxiety's sake, about how many LOAs is it safe to assume have already been/ will be used against the NWL quota?
Scout, Do if there are LOA holders in your nomination pool, are they considered for that primary slot? Or are they pushed aside so that non-LOA holders have a chance to compete for that top slot? I'm just curious because I got my third congressional nom today from my senator, and I figured that pool would have a few LOA holders in it.
Thanks.

We just found out that our son is on the wait list. Admissions advised him that the chances of getting an appointment from the list are slim. It was pretty discouraging to be honest. Such a long process...not the outcome that we had hoped and worked for.
