Yes...the waiting is nerve wracking. Actually, that pic is his plan B. He was awarded Michigan Commander's Pick for NROTC, so he'll go that route if necessary.
That means that of the two senators (1 being with more seniority in Senate, and 2 being the junior senator), you received the nomination from senator no. 2)
Congrats, from our sons experience last year, appointment should show up on your sons portal within a week or two?Hello all. First of all, my thanks and appreciation to all that have been so helpful on this site. I "stalked" for quite awhile and then registered last week when my DS received his letter from his MOC stating he was receiving the Principal Nom. to USNA. Letter is dated 1/18/17, he received it on 1/21. Do you know if we will have to wait until after Jan. 31st before we here about the Appointment?
Congrats on the nom, I don't think your BGO would know the answer, now the hardest part is waitingHow do you know where you are on the "slate"? My DS received a congressional nomination and received an invitation to a nomination ceremony which he is proud and honored to attend. We have no idea how competitive our district is, how many applied, or how many were selected. He's just happy to have the nomination! My DS has not contacted his BGO to see where he stands in the process or what his "competition" is. Not sure if he should. His BGO knows he is very motivated. He's done well and is a great kid...like everyone else's. He's busy with school, LAX season beginning, and being club president. He doesn't want to bother his BGO however wants him to know that this is his #1...I'm sure he got that from the interview. He would be happy with NAPS and take it in a heart beat. Every congressional district seems to be different, just wondering what seems to be the most common protocol, if there even is one. Application is complete so at this point we just sit back and enjoy the roller coaster...correct?
I agree...he has his PFT for his NROTC MO Scholarship on Feb.4th. After that, it's time for him stay in shape, enjoy the remaining of his Senior year, and place it in God's hands. I know these kids will be placed exactly where they are meant to be. So proud of their desire to serve!Congrats on the nom, I don't think your BGO would know the answer, now the hardest part is waiting
CONGRATS!!!! THE WAITING IS VERY HARD! WE STILL WAIT AND HOPE TO SEE YOU ON I-DAY!!!!!Well the wait is finally over - Our DS received his call from our Senator yesterday evening with an appointment to USNA. We hope to see you all for Parents Weekend and may God Bless Navy Midshipmen Class of '21
So he is 3 for 3? He got a call from Peters himself? Wow, congrats to him (and you!). We didn't get a call from Peters last night, DD doesn't need another nom but I think it would make us all feel better.Well the wait is finally over - Our DS received his call from our Senator yesterday evening with an appointment to USNA. We hope to see you all for Parents Weekend and may God Bless Navy Midshipmen Class of '21
Congratulations to you and your DS. I'm sure that was a great feeling. We are in wait mode, like thousands of others just waiting for that call. Hopefully we'll hear something soon.Well the wait is finally over - Our DS received his call from our Senator yesterday evening with an appointment to USNA.

Ok, so Stabenow called but Peters' office was at least heard from? On the portal?Actually it was Stabenow who called him personally. However, it now shows both "1 & 2" Senator on his app page. Either way, I'm glad we can all relax....at least for a while
Portal went 2 then 1Ok, so Stabenow called but Peters' office was at least heard from? On the portal?
