This is good stuff ... I now know where the "too many socks" threshold is! Thank you. @better_together_2027 - if the Bates don't work for your DS's feet, try the Altama Uniform Oxfords. They are on the approved list, look almost exactly the same and are a bit more comfortable. The cadet store...

Thank you! This is helpful ... we will see how many pair SHE can cram in one ziplock. I appreciate your comment about the extra stuff/junk very much ... staying away from that temptation is #westpointmomgoals ! :)

Hello Wise People of the Forum ... Since I have been relegated by my USMA CC to support crew and am eager to overachieve in my diminished, yet important role as Sock Supply Chain Supervisor ... any wisdom you would be willing to share regarding the ideal number of pairs of socks in each of the...

Hey it's Friday ... a good day to check those portals, people! Now, if you found some good news there or if you've been sitting on some good news - don't be shy about sharing it! Our dear friends over there on the USNA thread want to beat us to 100 appointments and they are playing songs and...

Hello @NCA My DD traveled alone to both NASS and SLE last year. She did not have back to back sessions, however we are also from Northern California and the flight schedules lent themselves to her and another NorCal attendee flying in the night before SLE and spending the night at the EWR...

From the Nominations FAQs https://www.serviceacademyforums.com/index.php?threads/nominations-faq.33450/ What are “principal” noms? MOCs can submit their slate in one of three ways. It is ENTIRELY up to them; they can do it differently for different SAs and they can change their approach every...

So a couple of things. Going or not going to one of the summer programs does NOT add weight to your application or likelihood of receiving an appointment. Admissions is clear about this. It is, however, a great opportunity to get on campus, interact with current cadets/mids, meet professors in...

It is "possible" to switch sessions if a conflict arises - not a given, but will work with you on a space available basis.

I just saw a response from her to a similar question - it reads as follows: "as far as I know, no restrictions will be placed since it’s not required". Hope this helps.

I w Ms. Wambeke, the USMA Immunizations person, would be the person who could answer this question. She is very responsive on the Class of 2027 Parents Facebook group and also via email.

A bottomless well of wisdom that I wish I had fully absorbed earlier on in this process. Perhaps hindsight is 20/20. The eyes straight ahead mantra is really key. I spent way too much time analyzing past habits of MOC nom sources, reported admissions stats, etc which I find highly entertaining...

Hey there @supersoldier0823 My DD found it very helpful to reach out to those who attended both Navy and West Point and are currently serving/have served to have conversations with them. She found that people want to help you on this journey, will freely share their experiences and will be...
