wnal and mooradian, this is just speculation, we will know more by Friday and certainly more by Tuesday. It is a tough wait for us all, hang in there.

I have officially begun to stalk the mailbox. I will wait patiently. Thank you for your kind words that ease the nerves.

Thank you very much! I see where you are talking about

In my winner letter that I received from Cadet Command, it had listed my Academic Discipline as Technical. I was just curious as to what majors would apply here and what majors would not. Thank you for all help!

Their rank is an officer candidate, much like ROTC or OCS. Good question on the discounts, though, I was wondering the same. Also, are the midshipmen issued military ID's?

All of your planned classes sound excellent. I'll offer my advice and I'm sure some people will disagree. Obviously, you want to challenge yourself, as all of us do. Keep in mind that Junior year is the most difficult year, and therefore the most important. You want to perform the best now and...

I'll be sure to let my parents know! Thank you, hopefully I receive an appointment soon!

I did not have an overnight visit nor an LOE, but I am in contact with my Rd quite frequently and he has emailed me about when offers would be coming out. For a majority Congressional and Senatorial slot winners as well as people under special circumstances will be receiving the BFE's on...

and I believe some QNS letters that are at the end of the NWL that are highly probable not to receive an appointment.

I am currently an HS student and I was talking about my fall senior transcripts. I will wait another full week. Thank you.

I have applied to both USNA and USMA. I have been medically qualified for both as well as 3Q'd for USMA. It is my understanding that it is possible to gain an appointment to both SA's, but not likely. How likely would it be that one would receive an appointment to USNA, USMA, USAFA, USCGA, or...

I have had my application in for about 4 months now. Also, i have had my 7th semester transcripts in for two. Should I contact my RD soon if I do not hear?

yes, that is what I was implying by saying the LOA recipients (people under special circumstances who WP really wants) are either the presidential appointees or ROTC or recruited athletes or prior enlisted. They will be in the first wave as well, depending on how competitive they are.

You are mostly correct. The district and senatorial winners and LOA recipients will not be placed on the NWL. Rather, they will be the first to receive their BFEs.The rest of the 1500+ candidates will be "racked and stacked" on the NWL with the majority at the end essentially guaranteed to...
