Just got my 2nd TWE but everything happens for a reason! To all of the first time applicants who may not have gotten the news they wanted to hear: It's ok! Everything happens for a reason and God has a plan for you. Whether or not we see it, we wind up where we're meant to be. I remember in...

It just shows up as "Turned Down" where the CPR used to be.

Hi! I'm currently re-applying to USNA. When did you hear back from USNA your second time around? Did you have a medical waiver requested before or after you were notified that you received an appointment?

I had a friend who re-applied as a Marine option for the NROTC scholarship and they received an appointment to USNA after they reapplied. I don't think USNA cares whether or not it's Navy or Marine option. Being in NROTC shows that you have an interest in serving the the military as an officer...

Thank you for this information!

Ok thank you!

I was told by a BGO that the re-applicant process is slightly different than the direct applicant process. They didn't really specify how so I was just wondering if anyone had any knowledge of how it was different. Also thank you for the information regarding the timeline of submitting the...

My application had the incomplete status for a while but it just recently switched to Complete Pending Review. I wouldn't worry too much as long as you turned in all the required parts of the application. Worse comes to worse and you could email your admissions counselor to see if it's just a...

Hi! I'm currently a college re-applicant for the USNA Class of 2027 and I've been told that the re-applicants go through a different review process than direct applicants. Does anyone know what about the re-applicant process is different? I submitted my second application back in January but I...

I'm not sure what DoDMERB's criteria for determining what's "fine" to get a waiver but just submit any paperwork that they're asking for and as long as you are fully recovered and you have a doctor that can verify that, you're doing all that you can do. Patience and bearing with the process is...

My DoDMERB dq said "History of moderate or severe brain history" and they just asked for medical records and doctor's notes saying that I was fully recovered.

My biggest piece of advice is stay patient! I got a concussion during one of my practices during my sophomore year and I got medically DQed too. I've been fully recovered for the past several years and the waiver process does take a while. I ended up getting a medical waiver for an NROTC...

Thank you! Happy Easter!

Thank you! I'm sending you an email now.

I've tried reaching out several times but it usually takes a while to get a response. I haven't gotten any information from the cadre at my unit yet about receiving a waiver.
