    Wait Listed for Class of 2017

    Djed, he will be attending Virginia Tech. Great fit for him... He has some issues with color vision, and although he passed the lantern test here and was medically cleared I think he was very nervous he would arrive, fail it, and be sent right back home. I've read about several kids that has...

    Proud moment

    At our Senior class awards today... When the West Point appointee and 3 ROTC scholarship recipients were announced it was our Seniors who started a standing ovation, before the parents even had a chance. Made my heart happy for the future of our country and the many awesome young kids who will...

    Wait Listed for Class of 2017

    Thanks Nigel! Honestly... I don't know. He's kind of already mentally moved on, but he does love USCGA and it was his first choice for a very long time.

    I was wondering the same, PupNSuds... how are they selected off the wait list if they are not ranked? Also, folks mentioning being wait listed for the scholars program, is that a separate wait list?

    Nomination

    From what I have read on here, it can't hurt... they may be more likely to put you on their slate because they have a bit more assurance that you will not be a wasted spot. Good luck!

    @H2Omom... Mine had basically the same response, kids are smarter and more adaptable than their mama's sometimes, aren't they? :wink: @anxious and proud mom... sent you a PM.

    @anxiousandproudmom... go to the admissions page and log-in to where it shows his recommendations, etc. It should have a link now to the decision, if your child was EA I. @stella... thanks, and yes we are very proud of him! Honestly, he does not have a number 1 choice, he really loved all...

    Awesome stats, Sailorgirl! Can certainly see why you received an LOA! Little bummed and confused for my DS, he has outstanding all around stats, excellent scores and recommendations, already been accepted to Michigan Engineering school EA (VERY tough for an out of state student) and has a nom...

    Color deficient at USNA but not USAFA

    Great news! Keep in mind, in case you aren't aware, you will have to take the plate test again at I-Day. Apparently if you fail, they send you straight to take a FALANT, and if you fail that, you are sent home. Just feel like it's good to be prepared and know what you would be facing upon...
