This is awesome. Congratulations! "The squeaky wheel gets the grease" That's impressive you went from QNS to appointed. I'm currently in a kind of similar situation you were in. I've been proactive with staying in contact with the SAs and showing my desire to attend. I try my best to do so...

Hello, I'm an applicant for C/O 2028 USNA and my status is still Pending. I am aware that everyone will find out by the end of this week and that many people have since April 15th. I have seen many posts about people be rejected and waitlisted during this time period but I was wondering if...

Where did you see how many people have been accepted?

I'm posting this thread to seek guidance given my current status. Currently, I haven’t heard from any of the SAs or NROTC. However, I have heard from most of the civilian colleges I have applied to. My Plan A is an SA, my Plan B is NROTC while reapplying for the class of 2029, and my Plan C is...

Hello, In my USMA application, I found my way to the form to fill out my request for a Presidential Nomination. However, I couldn't find any directions on how and where to submit it. Are we expected to email it to our regional advisor, mail it in like USNA, or something else? thanks.

Hey everyone, I'm posting this thread to receive some insight and advice on my DODMERB survey questions. I indicated that I take ibuprofen and acetaminophen when necessary and not consistently, for example, for having a cold. In the past, I have taken a few medications for acne: Accutane (I...
