Just make sure that when you go into the interview you have a sense of humility. Nothings annoys people more than someone who thinks they are the greatest thing to walk the earth. That being said, make sure you give your panel the things about you that you think make you stand out, i.e. any...

Yep, I stayed with the 14th Company, and just got the letter saying G Company 14th Platoon. Guess they liked me...

Guess I'll just wait for the permit packet and read through that. Thanks though.

Just wondering what we should bring to I-Day. Everything I've recieved has been very undescriptive. So if you could make just a list of things to bring, and things which you'll want right after plebe summer and such, I'd be very appreciative. :shake:

Definitly go. I'm going in March, and my family is making it into a spring break vacation. With Washington so close and all the things to do, they'll be entertained while I'm at the academy. And if your d does get an appointment, she'll want to have an idea of what she's getting into. Good Luck.

Now my status is saying accepted :eek:. Is this good news?

My DODMERB status changed to "offer extended" under the USMMA slot. Its done the same for both the USAFA and USNA, and I've recieved appointments right around the time of the change. My status has been changed since early January and I haven't heard anything. Just wondering what it means.

Im going to the 12/13. I'm not staying in the Springs but hopefully will be at the dinner.

Is there anyone currently on the varsity team. I planning trying to walk on and I want to know how getting up at five goes with everything else.

So the "offer extended" for the USMMA means nothing? For the USAFA and USNA it says offer extended and I've recieved appt's to both of them, and I'm just wondering with the USMMA. Also, does anyone know if military nominations also notify people like the MOC's. I got a nomination to the...

I'll be down there on the 12th and 13th, but I'll be driving b/t Denver so no hotel. This was bugging me last night, so: Do we get a cot or something to sleep on in the dorms? I've gone on recruit trips for swimming, some of which I sleep on a couch, others on a bed, and one on the floor.

Was this the regional director or your BGO? I know the CVW's go through the regional directors and I was planing on contacting mine.

I know that the USAFA has an appointee orintation in April. Does the Naval Academy have a similar program, or should I set up a weekend to visit through admissions. I have not done a CVW, so I have never visited Annapolis, which I need to do so I can make the right choice.
