If you don't mind sharing, what did you son need a waiver for?

Just curious Grad/Dad the Conditional Offer of Appointment is just a letter and you only get the BFE after you receive the medical waiver?

I am in the same boat you are in. I have two noms and have been found physically and scholastically qualified, but am waiting on a Conditional offer of appointment. I have been told by the forum and by the admissions office that a conditional offer of an appointment means if I receive a medical...

Dear Grad/Dad, You PM'd me a while back and just realized I could respond as a visitor without needing 15 posts. My DODMERB status is Pending Waiver Submission/Review. I saw that you posted on one of the asthma DQ threads that you did not wait for the waiver process to start and went ahead...

I apologize, rejected would have been a more appropriate word. Our congressman nominated my friend and I in December. Our congressman has two available slots and said that he was putting us on both slates since there were not enough qualified candidates. My friend had an LOA and received his...

So my Congressman has two USNA spots to nominate this year and he said that he will nominate both. I received a nomination from him, but last week my friend received an appointment from the congressman's nomination. However, my friend no longer wants to go to the Naval Academy so will another...

So what all does a Candidate Visit Weekend entail? I understand that I will be a plebe's drag and that I will follow him around. ie. morning work out, classes, sports, meals. I already know about the length of CVWs are and the basic structure, I'm just looking for more specifics. Do I need to be...

I have been found scholastically and physically qualified. I also have received two competative nominations from a relatively uncompetative state. I spoke earlier today with the admissions office and they said I will most likely just have to sit tight until March.

Did your son receive an LOA? Just curious as I have heard that most candidates waiver process do not begin that early.

I have 720M 700CR and 32M 28E with a 3.9 unweighted gpa. My school doesn't rank. I have all the sports and leadership stuff down. I've been national finalist in several writing and project based contests. Then, I have nominations from my senator and my congressman in a relatively uncompetitive...

My regional admissions officer says I need a Conditional Offer of Appointment to begin the medical waiver process. Does this mean that I won't find out anything until the regular appointments are sent out?

Thanks! I've talked to my BGO and my regional coordinator. The regional coordinator says I need a Conditional Offer of Appointment so it sounds like I won't find anything out for a while.

Is it possible for me to contact someone at admissions and attempt to speed the process up? I just want to get the waiver opportunity ASAP.

I have been found scholastically and physically qualified, but was medically disqualified in October. Since then I have received two nominations that are in the CIS and understand that now the USNA can begin the waiver process at their discretion. How will I be notified if they begin the waiver...

Where on Facebook did you see this? Do they a certain admissions page or was this just on the United States Naval Academy Page? Thanks!
