For Those Awaiting an Appointment/TWE

Age Group. How did you do against those folks?

Gotcha! I did pretty well for my first one! I was running with a friend of mine who helped to keep me motivated. It helped to keep up with everyone else. It's always good to have a cheerleader along the way! :D I've been working so hard on distance lately, I'm curious to see how much my mile time will improve. Thank you again for all of your help! It will definitely ease the pain if I hit Reserve basic this summer!
 
DS received the TWE today. He was well prepared and had already moved on mentally. He took it really great and is really excited about Plan B. We've put the deposit down at the school and he'll be accepting his AFROTC Scholarship as soon as we get home from vacation.

Rick...I too have been following your DS's journey and hoping for the best. I am SO confident that with his incredible resume and the support and love of parents like you - he will succeed NO MATTER WHAT! Congratulations on the AFROTC and enjoy the remainder of your vacation!
 
TWE here in FL. Looks like lots went out today. Ugh...what an arduous process for everyone. DS had plan B already rattling around in his head. This forum has been our saving grace this past year. Godspeed to everyone on here. They all end up where they're supposed to be. DS plans on AROTC at Embry Riddle. If anyone else has a son/daughter going to ERAU, PM me...we could connect. Proud of all these kids. Tough day.

Phenomenal Plan B!! DS visited there a few years ago, amazing place! The very best to you and your family !
 
Hello! Have been a stalker on the forum board for a while now reading through hundreds of posts and trying to get a grasp of this whole process as this was DS first time applying. The TWE (email) arrived earlier today and suprisingly, there is more gratitude than sorrow for all we have both learned and experienced through the last 10+ months . I am filled with hope for the future of our great country with so many remarkable young people wanting and willing to serve. Congratulations to those who have received appointments and to those who made it this far and received the TWE, keep the faith and keep pressing forward! It has been a real honor.

Sorry to hear, but I'm sure plan B will be a success! Best wishes!
 
I personally want to thank you a lot RickD. A while back I had posted about having to retake my CFA (probably the thing that weighed me down the most), and since taking your advice, I have pushed myself and lost 20 pounds and ran my first 5k the other day! I cannot thank you enough!!! Was really pulling for your son, but am sure that he will move on to bigger and better things!!! I wish him all the luck!

For all those Californians out there, I made a list. Hopefully I did not miss anyone, let me know if I did.

Not sure if this is super important, but I'm from CA-38 and I'm pretty sure I was on the appointee list somewhere in the 80s or so. Seems no one on the forum is waiting from my district though.

Love Embry Riddle! That was DS#1's back up plan and let's just say I would not have been unhappy to go visit him there, especially during PA winters! We toured it and didn't want to come home. Congrats to your DS!

TWE for DS here in VA-04. Already accepted at ERAU Prescott on the Presidential Scholarship (merit based) for Astro/Aero Engineering. I asked several times if he wanted to switch to Daytona campus ;);), but he chose Prescott.... Unfortunately, he missed the national AFROTC scholarship deadline, but enrolled in AFROTC at Prescott and working towards the in-school scholarship award there.

Good luck to your DS, am sure he'll have a blast at ERAU and reach his goals.
 
Looks like yesterday was rough for a lot of people. IL-05 here and I received a TWE yesterday as well. Time to go off to college and reapply next year. Good luck to those who are left.
