Thank you Phoebem! Congratulations and Good Luck!!!

Do we have an idea at this point how many SAP cadets from MMI received appointments this year for each Service Academy?

Thank you very much for this information!

My son has a TI-83 calculator. Is that going to be adequate for his needs next year or is there something different he needs to get? Thank you!

Are there any spots in particular that the kids like to frequent? I appreciate your insight, thank you!

I've been doing a little research. It looks like there are a few restaurants in the area around MMI: Diane's Diner, The Shack, Lottie's, The Social, Whillard's BBQ, The Crab Box and Chatinos Mexican Grill. I also see that there are two gas stations (Valero & Citgo). I'm thinking it might be nice...

TD early this morning. Onto MMI in the fall. Go Tigers!

Our son will be attending the SAP at MMI in the fall as well! He's been recruited to throw javelin for the Track team. We are very happy he has been given this opportunity and look forward connecting with you all!

I wonder if the portals are all going to update at the same time or if it will go in waves. This whole process really is such a mystery. I'm thankful to have this group knowing that there are so many others out there going through the same thing we are in our family.

I was wondering when they would start. I can't remember what time of day any changes have happened in the portal (probably because he was checking so infrequently until recently). I told my son there's a good chance he won't even hear today, so to be prepared for that.

Pending in CT. My son has been checking his portal and excitedly telling us he's "still pending" and "still in the game". I'm proud of his outlook at this point. He knows he'll end up exactly where he's meant to be. His plan B is Marion Military Institute and he's very proud to be headed there...

My son reached out to LTC Bowen from MMI directly. They spoke at length about the Service Academy Program that he directs. I would email him and set up a time to talk if you can to get info about Marion.

My son applied in the fall with plans to self-prep. He wanted to have his plan B secured. He's still waiting to hear from USNA, but he's very excited about attending MMI if he does not receive an appointment. Their whole staff has been amazing through the process. It's my understanding that the...

One of my son's very good friends will be attending Florida Atlantic University in the fall. It's a very good school! Good luck to you!

I'm so sorry to hear that. I've been thinking about you. My son was also waitlisted for USCGA. He's getting excited to start his experience at MMI. Your information has been so helpful as he made this decision. Thank you very much for the time you took providing your insight and I wish you the...
