Question, a friend said his son received LOA's to Navy and Air Force as a recruited athlete without ever applying to either and after he had committed to West Point for a sport. Has anyone heard of a situation like this? It seemed kind of odd.
Its not likely, because he must have completed some kind of correspondence to the academies. But then again, the LoA he received must be contingent with completing the entire application including the nomination and CFA. I've heard of blacks in my area who received LoA's after just filling out some information for an academy at a college fair, they still had to complete the entire application (CFA, nomination, correspondences) to secure their spot.
I would not call your friend or his son a liar yet.Question, a friend said his son received LOA's to Navy and Air Force as a recruited athlete without ever applying to either and after he had committed to West Point for a sport. Has anyone heard of a situation like this? It seemed kind of odd.
