It was in the portal. My ds got an email telling him to check his portal. His portal had changed from 100% to "Your decision is ready." When he clicked on the envelope, the LOI appeared.Can you please tell me how LOI/LOE was received - email, mail?
Just remember that in this group there is only a relatively small (and individually driven to search for information) cross section of the entire application/candidate pool, so to see a high percentage of anything in here is not necessarily indicative of the wider community. Any letter from an SA encouraging you to continue or complete your application is a strong signal that they consider you to be competitive for appointment. It's a lot less work for the admissions team to just move on and not send these out so it is still "a big deal". Not a guarantee but certainly an encouraging step as the far greater number of applicants hear nothing at all.Gotta be honest - my biggest question at this point is did EVERYBODY get that LOI/LOE? It seemed like such a big deal at the time but it seems at though it was sent out to everyone who had an app completed. Thoughts?
My DS recieved one as well.Gotta be honest - my biggest question at this point is did EVERYBODY get that LOI/LOE? It seemed like such a big deal at the time but it seems at though it was sent out to everyone who had an app completed. Thoughts?
Nope! DS did not receive one. He completed his application in August and had DODMBERB/CFA qualification in early Sept.Gotta be honest - my biggest question at this point is did EVERYBODY get that LOI/LOE?

Another student at my school is also applying to USAFA and he didn't get it. Kind of a little surprised because his stats are great. I know it's about more than that, and the LOE doesn't mean much in the long run, but still surprised.Gotta be honest - my biggest question at this point is did EVERYBODY get that LOI/LOE?

Mom of a USAFA cadet and a hopeful 2028 academy cadet/mid - LOA's seem to be most often given to recruited athletes, I am aware of a few who have received them and aren't recruits, but that seems to be much fewer and further between. Keep in mind that even with an LOA, they still have to successfully complete DoDMERB, receive a nomination, and also successfully finish senior year.Another student at my school is also applying to USAFA and he didn't get it.

seems like a lot received an LOA from this forum. Congratulations to all who did receive an LOA! Maybe someone who received an LOA start a thread to list all those who received LOA/Appointment. Happy for all of you! Its good to hear so soon from USAFA.
I wouldn’t combine LOA and appointments.USAFA Class of 2028 Offers of Appointment Self-Updating List
Since we are seeing LOA/Appointments starting to come in I thought I would start the list. THE FORMAT: This is the simplest and oldest format, a straight text list, no formatted tables, that is described in following paragraphs. If you decide to import a table or spreadsheet format to “help”...www.serviceacademyforums.com
Concur. One for full offers of appointment, and the poster can list any LOA if desired, per the usual annual appointment thread practice.I wouldn’t combine LOA and appointments.
Leave one for appointments only. If you think one is needed for LOAs, create a separate thread.
Just my opinion.
I think you will drive yourself crazy trying to figure out the logic. My DS didn't get an LOI/LOE and his application had been done for a while and he passed his CFA, and cleared DoDMerb. Then he got an LOA last week? I would think that if they liked his application that much, they would have sent him an LOI/LOE?Gotta be honest - my biggest question at this point is did EVERYBODY get that LOI/LOE?
