    I’m guessing you meant to say ‘assume he didn’t get an appointment...’. I wouldn’t necessarily say that. The admissions committee meets weekly and more appts will be going out often. I would hang in there and be patient. Many appointments going out now but lots more to come. Our DS that is...

    USMA and homeschooling

    While the number of cadets who are homeschooled at SAs is growing (I would guess AFA has the largest group, since their admissions website speaks specifically to homeschoolers) it is an extrememly small percentage of students, at least at USMA. I would also suggest that a homeschooled applicant...

    USMA and homeschooling

    These are great questions and I will reply to the ones I can answer: 1. In Alabama, we don't use a service to send transcripts. All of our oversight is mandated to be provided by a private school in our state. So, they submit our transcripts in the typical way. Sorry I can't be more help...

    USMA and homeschooling

    Have you heard on an appointment yet? If not, best of luck. We are from Alabama and the whole application and admissions process was tricky at times. We have a Firstie (senior) at West Point, so after his admissions experience, it helped us to be better prepared for the 2023 application. The...

    USMA and homeschooling

    Hey folks, I just saw a post this morning from a father whose son was admitted as a homeschooler. Our DS will graduate in May and our second son received an appointment yesterday...both were homeschooled. While it is a small percentage at WP, I thought it might be good to open up a thread for...

    USMA Class of 2023 Appointment Thread

    We should probably begin a thread for homeschool families...we have a DS graduating from WP in May and our second son received a 2023 appointment yesterday. It is certainly a small group, especially at WP, but I’m sure it is growing and the path is much more unique towards building a...

    Sorry, just saw this...Shelby still hasn’t announced appointments, but we received two calls yesterday that our DS got an appointment to WP. One call was from our senator, one call was from our representative. This seemed unusual, since it is my understanding that cadet candidates come from...

    buff81...just saw this, so sorry for not responding. I appreciate you serving the families of AL...it has been very rewarding, but we certainly have just tried to continue to grow on the great foundation many great folks before us laid. We just heard from Doug Jones this morning that our DS...

    Congratulations on the appointment. What state and district are you from? We have a firstie and a senior in high school that has a senatorial nom, but hasn't heard on appointment yet, but as many have said, it is still very early, esp for non-recruited athletes. We are from Birmingham, AL...
