I have come to say farewell, DD's medical waiver was denied yesterday. This has been such an amazing experience for her and as odd as this sounds, this journey has brought us closer to our family and friends, all of whom have been cheering for her along the way. I cannot be more thankful for...

My DD has an LOA and waiting on a waiver.

Still waiting too. 😬

And you might be surprised that they won’t even ask, “why USNA?” DD’s panel did not ask that question, they geared her interview towards future goals and plans.

We are going to wait until the 15th, then proceed with Plan B deposit. DD has LOA, but not cleared medically. She is in a good place and realizes that service might take a different form, if she doesn’t receive an appointment. She has matured tremendously during this process and if anything, we...

I hope you have reached out to Mr. Mullen. DD was in a situation and he helped tremendously. Good luck to you.

Curious to those who received a TWE, did you also have a LOA? DD is still waiting 🙏🏻

Mr. Mullen, thank you for contacting my DD this evening. We appreciate you more than you will ever know!

Having a tutor is no different than having a private trainer or coach for an athlete. Also, getting that SAT score up there is not only important for your SA application but also for your Plan B-Z. Good luck! PS: we used a tutor for SAT prep and DD scored in the 1500’s. We also had a coach work...

DD went in November and brought lots and lots of cookies. Also, she brought a plain black coat and was told it was a good choice because they make fun of the drags that come wearing their letterman jackets. If they invite/ask you to do the early morning work out, do it. Have fun!

DD is a USNA candidate. We try to keep that to ourselves but every once in awhile we will share and get this response: what if she has to go to war? Doesn’t that scare you? 🙄🙄🙄🙄

DD received a phone call, a letter and photo of her shaking hands with the MOC.

DD attended CVW and met a few cheerleaders. They told her to definitely continue her private lessons (tumbling/stunting) since football season is over. She is a great tumbler and solid flyer, so she just needs to get that appointment! 😬😬
