    Wait Wait Wait...and MORE Wait

    We inquired as well and were told that Ss application had no weaknesses. As you said, it's tough to fix if you don't know what's wrong. S hit or exceeded all the targets...visited by admissions rep in our home and invited to CVW. We will give it some time and call in early summer. I read...

    Reapplying Questions

    In the class profile for the class of 2014 it lists 69 in the class as having some college background. Of that group I'm sure that some are applying for the fisrt time and other are reapplying. Does anyone have an idea what size the candidate pool was for this group?

    TWE Letter- Details & ?'s

    Again, with respect, those percentages aren't perception and can't be explained as chance. Thanks for your posts though, they have been very informative. Take care.

    TWE Letter- Details & ?'s

    With respect, those percentages don't happen in a gender and color blind process. If gender and race where not boxes to check on the application, those percentages would be very different. However, I understand the need for diversity in the officer corps. I have no problem with the Academy...

    Wait Wait Wait...and MORE Wait

    The ring alone can only take you so far. Best of luck to your S during his next two years and his future in the Navy. After the first TWE did you inquire about the areas in his application that he needed to improve? I ask because a TWE arrived hear as well and was told via email that there...

    Wait Wait Wait...and MORE Wait

    Regarding the bubble and your chances at this point, it seems to depend on which bubble you are in. Some bubbles offer better chances than others. Regarding NAPS, I would hesitate to say that all those still waiting for a direct appointment or an offer to NAPS have no leadership potential...

    Wait List

    If USNA is now developing a wait list, is it safe to figure that the 2015 class of appointments is full and all those still waiting will receive a TWE or be wait listed as well? Why would a wait list be developed otherwise?

    Are there a lot of people still waiting?

    From NC as well with the same backups. It's a small world. Good luck.

    Call MOC

    I believe what you have read here is that some candidates have called their nominating MOC to determine if the MOC has had a candidate recieve an appointment. Not to find out infrmation on their standing with admissions. Some have said their MOC hasn't had word on anyone yet. Give them a...

    Has DoDMERB site being down slowed appointments?

    Where on the USNA admissions portal will it indicate medical status. All that I see is the section that refers you to DoDMERB? I know that the qualification has been received because it was confirmed via a conversation with admissions. Thanks in advance.

    Rolling Admission

    Thanks for the tip on the previous thread. If admissions does wait for all possible candidates within a given slate to become fully qualified, at least those that appear to have the chance, then it helps you to appreciate the "fire drill" they must go through in March and April. It's a...

    Rolling Admission

    Thanks for the replies and information. However, the question was...Considering that admissions uses a "rolling admission" policy, how do they rank and make offers when the entire MOC slate, at least those that have the possibility to be fully qualified, aren't fully qualified at the same...

    Rolling Admission

    I have a S that is fully qualified. His nomination is from an MOC and I have a question regarding the rolling admission policy used by USNA. Even though MOC slates are due on 1/31 and the cut off for applications is 3/1, I have heard that some applicants seeking waivers may not become...

    When does the board meet?

    A question regarding the process for MOC nominees - When a candidate becomes Fully Qualified, with an MOC nomination, will their file be reviewed ASAP using a "rolling admission" selection process or will admissions wait until 3/01 for the cut off of all applications? It seems that if the...
