    When in the Nom process to solicit letters of rec?

    That's awesome; I'm glad that I could help. Tell your son good luck! Also tell him this is a marathon, be prepared for a long process and a lot of waiting. That said, his early preparations will put him in a better position to be successful.

    Hello USAF303, I haven't been on the site for a couple of weeks, so I just saw your question. What I'm calling a letter of transmittal is the letter I sent to my teachers requesting their support. Of course I had spoken to them first, so I knew they were going to be very supportive.

    When in the Nom process to solicit letters of rec?

    I apologize USAF303, I haven't logged on in a while. The SOE (School Official Evaluation) is USAFA form 145, attached is a PDF file of the form. The questions on form 145 helped me formulate much of my opening letter to the teachers. You will see why when you read the questions on the form...

    When in the Nom process to solicit letters of rec?

    ders_dad: Only one of the people that I asked to provide a recommendation had any military experience, and none of them really had a good understanding of the academies.

    Group Chat USMA ‘22

    I'm not sure if the PM's are automatically allowed at 5 or if someone has to manually allow it, but I'm still not able to initiate a private conversation. If you can initiate the PM, I will provide a picture as DrMom suggested. Edit: It's now allowing me to initiate a PM; ignore the above.

    How often are ACT/SAT scores updated on the portal?

    My October 28 ACT score updated yesterday on two portals. I received my ACT score on the first day they were available, November 14, but the scores are released on a rolling basis. So if your scores came out later, it might take a little longer for them to hit the academy portals.
