Two weeks out for cross country at MMI! Whose DD/DS is nervous for the start of school? I think the hardest part for my DS is that he hasn't seen the school other than virtually. Here's to hoping XC can continue this year!

There are great scholarship opportunities at MMI! Check into it! :)

Exactly. Doesn't fit with what the Coast Guard Admissions team said to us during a 1-1 in the fall. They said Marion is actually really good for prep and encouraged that as a backup. Now how far is the student away from an academy appointment based on where they stand right now? That is a...

How many SAP self-preppers are there for the USCGA on average? Anyone have this information?

This would be great information!

We are headed to MMI now for USCGA Self Prep! A lot of questions on MMI since we were so focused on Plan A. I'll check out the FB page thats existing but i'm all in for a self prep MMI Facebook page! My DS is on a cross-country scholarship there so he needs to self-prep for the HEAT and...

Under service academy forums, go to DODMERB Discussion, then go to the top of the page where it says FAST and go from there! :)

Congrats!

Based on the current timeline listed on the website, the deadline is April 15th to complete your medical examination. May 15th is for medical exam qualification/waiver. Perhaps timing may flex this year due to COVID-19, but no communication has been sent out from what I know. If you go to the...

Yes, sorry, that is only the number reported here on the forum. Just been pretty quiet for a bit. Looks like activity is picking up though!
