Yes….. definitely agree. Just waiting for the wave of BFE’s not TWE’s, but alas, I suppose that’s just apart of the cycle unfortunatelythe ball is hopefully rolling but positively instead lol
yea its unfortunate. Such good qualified candidates but not enough spots. Thats the beauty of a service academy lolYes….. definitely agree. Just waiting for the wave of BFE’s not TWE’s, but alas, I suppose that’s just apart of the cycle unfortunately
You will see “turned down” where the pending status on your portal was. From what I have heard they don’t send TWE’s in the mail anymore, but you’ll probably also get an email.ok Now I have a question with these TWE's and forgive me if it was answered .....Do those come by mail or portal? How nerve racking . I guess thank goodness for no news as of yet. I will cross my fingers for everyone to get BFEs
Do you know which SA?Lots of TWE's coming out apparently bc my two friends in my area got turned down. Maybe that means admissions is starting to send out more decisions. Hopefully they aren't TWE's!
usnaDo you know which SA?
Really? Where are you seeing these TWE’s? There’s only two other people in my area applying to USNA and none of us have heard anything.Yes… I know there is a day where mass TWE’s go out… I have seen some (2 today), but not like a huge wave like the C/O ‘27 had. This waiting is really sucky and I just want to know where I’m gonna end up, but we’re over the first week of March already, and next week will be the middle of March! So news is going to come soon and time has been going by somewhat fast….
its a catch phrase used for the old school "Thin White Envelope" to tell you admission has been denied. They do it electronically now.ok Now I have a question with these TWE's and forgive me if it was answered .....Do those come by mail or portal? How nerve racking .

I saw two people post today that they received a TWE. I’m the only person I know of in my area applying to USNA. I know there is probably more, but I don’t know them my friend whose been in contact with admissions because they got a foundation offer, the head guy for that told them that admissions is quite behind this year so hopefully some news soonReally?

April 12thYep! Every year has its quirks. March 12th was what was reported last year for the big wave of rejections, but then again, every year is different. Just gotta keep our fingers crossed! As someone else here said, every day that passes is a day closer to getting news.
That’s what I was wonderingUsna's spring break is next week. I wonder if admissions staff is also off. Could mean no movement for a bit.
lol funny enough I know the head of the scholarship/foundation program at usna. Hes friends with my uncle lolI saw two people post today that they received a TWE.

Thank you! I’ll fix that right now.April 12th
Yeah I talked with my AO today, he didn’t specify whether they were off next week but he said in the next few weeks they expect to be done with congressional district slatesHopefully it's the opposite lol! No classes, more staff to help with admissions?
For the first time in my life, I think I pushed myself way too hard. Ended up almost passing out and puking after the run. No regrets. No matter what it takes, I'm going to the academy.Having good form is paramount for lessening injuries during indoc summers should you receive an appointment. Also good, professionally fitted running shoes.

LOL I had the same experience my scores are around yours and my gym teacher said it was the first time he had ever seen a student throw up while running.View attachment 15566For the first time in my life, I think I pushed myself way too hard.
