Waiting Game

Per a previous thread in DoDMERB, if a decision is made on your waiver, then you should receive an update whether it is Granted, Denied, or Additional AMI's. (Assuming you have already been informed by the SA that a waiver has been requested on your behalf.) If they have informed you they have requested a waiver, then they must deem you competitive, so it would make sense that they would complete the review. Good luck!

Edited to Add: My DS received notice in his portal that a waiver had been requested on his behalf. It asked him to confirm he was moving forward with his application and asked that he respond ASAP to any requests for additional information from DoDMERB. He was then informed when the AMI's were complete, and the information was being reviewed by the SA authority. After their review, THEN you will be notified of Granted, Denied, or Additional AMI's. Hope this clarifies.
Is it possible to get your appointment and still be denied after the waiver?
 
Question to those in the know: is the big drop of appointments only today (3/17 in the early AM) or will it be spread out over multiple days and times this week. My DS did not get an email this morning and I'm working on buoying his spirits that all is not lost. He has great B&C options, but I just wanted to get the lay of the land. All information is appreciated. Congrats to those who got their appointments today and earlier.

I believe they all updated at the same time this morning. It isn’t over yet though! Statistically speaking (looking at Pat years data) there are more batches that come out in the future.

Thanks for the feedback.
 
Are there any more waves/time slots later today or in the future that are releasing results, if so do you know when? Didn't hear back in the "big wave" and was wondering for any other chances.

Congrats to everyone who got appointed!
 
Son hasn't checked his portal yet, but I don' think he received any emails either ......... preparing to have him to be disappointed. :(

(But will still encourage him that it isn't over until he received a TWE).

Edit: No go. Didn't get anything in his portal.

My rule as long as the portal doesn't say "rejected or denied" he's in the running. I got a falcon foundation scholarship and I honestly thought I was going to be rejected when all the appointments were given out.
 
Looks like for us college re-applicants the process is almost over because I only see about one re-app for every 30 directs. Hopefully I am wrong but I am not as hopeful anymore...

Yep. Woke up to see nothing on my portal. And there are barely any college re applicants reporting appointments (as you said). I don’t know what more they want out of me lmao
 
Trust me USNA is the same way, waiting game is a nightmare, especially for college reapplicants
No kidding. I am a USNA and USAFA college re-app and its pretty stressful right now for both of the academies. At least I know I have a good shot at USNA because there are not many college re-apps that have been offered appointments

If you are basing your USNA hopes on “not many college re-applicants” who have posted here, temper that hope just a bit while remaining positive. Only a relatively small percentage of those are offered appointments find SAF and post them here. There is no validity in trying to extrapolate from that small data slice, since we don’t know if that slice is skewed in any way.
