You must continue to apply for all possible nominations: senators, congressman, vice presidential. (Check those due dates for your elected officials--in our area they are the end of September but there is great variation across the country.)

We do not allow the posting of links on SAF. You just need to search for it.

How complete is your application? If you think you have completed your application and do not understand why USMA is not asking for your DODMERB--because clearly, one of your applications was complete enough to trigger ordering an exam--you might send an email to your Regional Admissions...

WAR are the best! So glad she is going Army! Keep the winning tradition alive.

Letting them know you have an LOA tells them they would pick a winner. West Point has declared their interest in you…that is what the LOA means, your representatives and this teams know what an LOA means—their efforts will not be wasted, you will be selected. It elevates you from the others...

Also, with her nom and her LoA and mostly completed packet, many years they wait to send BFEs until mid-January as a batch. However, other years, BFEs drift out in the Fall. We will learn together what sort of year this is. She has a nomination but should definitely let her congressman and...

Do not think about LOAs or LOEs, pretend he applied to schools that don't have insider groups like this one, and trust that you will know before 1 May. Nothing matters but the BFE. He was interesting enough for waiver to be requested...

Mr Mullen has retired. I repeat.:Mr. Mullen has retired. Perhaps he will use his free time to answer questions about DODMERB? He is greatly missed by many--and we wish him well. In the meantime, DODMERB questions are best asked in the DODMERB forum.

However if you have completed your USMA application and then you are awarded an Army ROTC scholarship, you do not need to update your packet or notify admissions.

You should have someone post this on the WP Moms and WP Dads pages so that new parents can learn about your bus services.

Also, for anyone coming by because they are curious. The parents club that ALWAYS runs the buses is the WPPC MDDCVA--with stops in Delaware rest stop and along I-95--to DC and Fredericksburg. This is for most of the big 3-Day weekends: Labor Day, Presidents Day...but also for return to Re-Orgy...
