Have folks started receiving Permit to Report packets yet?? DD received BFE mid Feb and accepted appointment, sent birth certificate and police records check shortly thereafter. Not that we're paranoid or anythingo_O, but we've not heard boo from academy since then. In hindsight maybe should...

USMARTOC- Please keep the forum advised as to how this plays out for you guys. We are in a very similar boat as you. DD was blessed enough to get BFE for USNA which she will joyously and proudly accept. Also has NROTC scholarship but not yet received acceptance to first choice (obviously behind...

Ditto here. DD rec'd call from Admissions Wednesday asking if she'd gotten her appointment which showed up in the mail later that day. We'll take it as a compliment :). Funny thing was that the we'd dreamed about the various scenarios to break the news to our DD while we passed the time...

Thanks very much. We're pulling for you and your DS. Hope to see you on I-Day. Best of luck!

Maybe best directed to Servenow, but wanted to share a happy ending for all those waiting and praying for waiver. DD with misdiagnosed psoriasis (mentioned above) got her waiver a few weeks ago. Just got her BFE for USNA yesterday. BEST DAY EVER!! For all those still anxiously awaiting news-...

Sorry- I've been waiting what feels like a damned eternity and I screwed up my post the first time. Congrats to those on the list and good luck to those still stalking the mailboxes!

One additional piece of data I should have added- DD's experience is only referring to USNA, which is the most popular SA in MD. No clue re other SA's.

Sorry to send a contrary message. Not intending to add confusion re double nomination, but DD got nom from Sen Mikulski in November. DD got a letter 1-2 wks ago from Cardin saying she would have gotten nom but b/c she got nom from Mikulski she wouldn't get Cardin too. Same info confirmed from...

No worries. Understood. Thanks for the well-wishing. Hope to see you in July!

Servenow- Fantastic news! Congrats! I know for my DD it was such a huge relief. Getting this waiver opens the doors for so many different options in the future. Praying for BFE this year, but if not so fortunate, she can re-apply next year if she wanted to. Also keeps ROTC option open (though...

Congrats MDDADD! Do you mind sharing the NOM source? Which MOC? It "helps" those of us in MD keep score during the wait for any news. Given the countless permutations and complexity of the selection process, it probably doesn't help much, but I think it keep us busy while we continue the vigil...

DD got her letter from Cardin today. No nom, but was kind enough to indicate in the letter that DD got the nod from Cardin's review board but b/c she already had nom from Sen Mikulski and they don't do double noms. Good luck to all!
