Can't agree more with your third point. I am proud to say that posting about my appointment was my first thing on Facebook in over two years.

Thank you for the information, first time I am hearing of the "Permit to Report".

I received the call about my appointment from my MOC on Tuesday. I am not sure if you would be able to answer this, but should I be expecting the BFE to come soon or does it take some time for it to arrive. Any insight you may have is appreciated, thanks.

I was notified of my appointment this past Tuesday and I am honestly baffled that I do not know the answer to these questions, but nonetheless here they are. Just like how civilian colleges have an "admitted students day" where students travel to the school after being admitted to get a tour...

I received the nomination from Congressman Frelinghuysen who is in the 11th congressional district of New Jersey

I have had my application submitted since august 30th, my nomination came in on Nov. 15th. However, about 2 weeks ago I submitted a supplement regarding how I achieved Eagle Scout along various other awards as well as substantially better ACT scores. Now don't take my word for it, but I think...

If you don't mind me asking, when did your daughters have all their materials into USNA. That's is excluding dodmerb's section.

If you don't mind me asking, what state have you served on panels for?

I did say in my original message "baring any major screw-ups". I would list the two examples you stated under the category of a major screw-up. Apologies if that wasn't clear.

I have seen those posts and understand that there have been rare occasions where LOA recipients don't get nominations. I said its "basically guaranteed", I never stated that she would definitely get one.

If your daughter walks into the interview with a copy of her LOA she's basically guaranteed a nomination baring any major screw-ups (those are the words from my BGO). Imo it's not a bad idea to include a copy of it in her packet though, so the board interviewing her can see it before hand.

Congratulations! Are you being recruited or do you think you got an LOA because of your academics?

I was just wondering if people could comment on how long it took for USNA to log that they received their transcript after it has been sent. My transcript was sent on 08/15 and while I'm not expecting it to be entered into the system at this moment, I'm wondering when I should reasonably expect...

Just wondering, did both of your daughters complete their medical examinations with dodmerb and receive an "ok" from them prior to receiving the LOA?
