I encountered the same when I went to Navy Feds website.

Agreed! We were leaning towards Navy Fed because there is an ATM at the Exchange - totally forgot about USAA. We just have to wait til DD is closer to 18 to enroll.

It took a little over a week for my DD's BFE to arrive. Congratulations!

Exactly - I'm a member of the Parents group but DD is not a member of the appointees group. Hard to get an accurate count from that.

DD and I are going to the Academy 4/12 - 4/14. There is a Bear's Day on the 14th where DD will be able to shadow a cadet for the day. You can still register for that.

Conversely, my DD never got a notification that her app was going to the board nor the final check mark. She got an e-mail stating a decision was available, and then she had to hunt for that to get the good news!

The last checkbox was not checked. DD found the link under her application section. Without the email she wouldn't have known.

Tx!

Thanks! I know what a nerve-wracking experience this is. To give you an idea of DD's stats: 4.3 GPA 30 ACT 11 AP classes - 6 this year as a Senior 2 years varsity water polo 4 years varsity swim - captain this year Not a recruited athlete PFE 235 Major: MES One part-time job, lifeguard at a...

Spoke too soon. E-mail came notifying a decision was available. Full appointment!

DD just the checked portal. Still no check mark so they still have applications to peruse....

Another thing to consider is the major one has applied to. Engineering is very difficult to get into now at ANY university

My DD submitted on 1/15 - nothing like waiting til the last moment...
