just some words of wisdom and encouragement about running...do your best..take it slow and make sure you get yourself a good pair of running shoes and run on pavement not the HS track! Pavement is where you will run/chop at USNA so to keep from getting the shin splints the first few weeks..best...

ProudofourSon...Congratulations! and welcome aboard

I second what EOD/SEALmom and ca2midwesternmom has said. If possible, your DD should try to attend a CVW (and you too) It is a great one on one with a Plebe and a more direct insight in "a day in the life of a Plebe" and for parents, it is a great way to have some of your questions answered.

Row2020, can you PM me.

I thought I had major goosebumps and "proudparent" moment when my DS sang in the Vatican (Rome) and St Patrick's Catherdal (Dublin) as a memeber of his HS Honor Choir, I can't even grasp what the feeing would be like to hear him sing with the USNA Men's Glee Club and singing the Navy Hymn or the...

DH2015, first semester college transcripts have to be "official" so the best way to send them to the USNA is via the college. There should be info on college website or student portal on how to do this.

Congrulations Coach62 to your DS and to you and your family!! What a wonderful pre New Year's gift! In our household we are playing it "cool" while waiting...enjoying our holiday time with DS a college reapp with everything in and complete. Again, congrats!

"Congress/Senator 2" showed up on my DS CIS portal and we are all wondering what this means especially the "#2" Can someone please help with this.

Fast505, my DS got a TWE last week here at our home (he is away at college) and he had me open it (me thinking it could be a LOA :-)) and it turned out to be a USNA Admissions Flyer for an upcoming Admissions Forum in our area. My heart was beating fast for a few hours until I got permission...

be really nice when they finally get the Metro out to Dulles...I think it has only gone to Whiele Ave. We also have a cousin that lives in Baltimore so DS will be covered with places to go in those times when he can't fly home.

thank you all for your responses..very helpful information. Getting the cart before the horse here, however just wanted to get a feel for what might be exceptable. I know all about that DC/VA/MD traffice as we used to live there out near Dulles airport and DH worked near DC. We made trips to...

As I watched the Class of 2019 Plebes have the doors shut behind them today, I got to thinking about my DS who is a reapp for the Class of 2020 and what it will be like for my him (yes I am thinking very positive here) when he has liberty to get away from The Yard or for those Holidays when he...

nge2457 feel the same. DS has a classmate that is there today..they started the process together and was hoping that they would finish it together today by becoming Plebes together but it was not meant to be and my DS is reapplying for Class of 2020 as well. My best to the Class of 2019!
