Keep the faith Riverdale. DS got the TWE on Saturday. Letter said CCEB was reviewing more applicants for this class than in the past two decades (and from this board we know one of the smallest classes in that same time). On to Plan B and congratulations to all that got the BFE this year...

Remain calm. First the application has to go in and your DS or DD has to be judged "acceptable". The SA will then send a request for physical to DoDMERB and subsequently you will get a package from Concorde (their contractor) that has who/where to call and schedule your appointments and there...

Congrats CPD :thumb:! One less member of the mailbox stalker's club. The rest of us will keep stalking.

Just saw the Mobile news break at 0930. One confirmed deceased. Still in "search" mode for balance of crew heading to fuselage. Fuselage in 13' of water. Our hearts go out to these brave young people and their families and until we are notified otherwise will still believe that a miracle...

We feel you Riverdale. Coach told DS his review "was coming up very shortly" before the first RA CCEB. We have been mail box stalking for two weeks. DS received 4 yr academic scholly offer to Plan B on Friday but is really wanting to see what the letter with the New London return address has...

I feel your pain but... I would look at it as a positive. My DS failed PiP test and needs to do remedial with FALANT test but DoDMerb has him medically dq'ed, waiver pending (no request for remedial) and he was a little upset. DS contacted his AO and DoDMerb liason at USCGA and was informed...

Just remember, grades are only one part of what USCGA is looking for. They want a "whole" that shows grades (plus SAT/ACT scores), leadership, athletics, community service and the right attitude. While grades are important, make sure that you are taking care of the other things as well...

A question for those in the know. DS has complete package in for RA and is waiting on one DMERB remedial letter and will take care of when received. Does RA have multiple review sessions similar to EA? Or in other words, are admissions made on a rolling basis until 4/15 or are all RA...

ESCA, "sent to contractor" means that MERB has received the request from SA or ROTC that candidate is otherwise qualified (does not mean accepted in anyway) and they are agreeing to pay for your DS or DD to take the physical and eye exam. MERB has sent the docs to Concorde who is the contractor...

Thanks for the replies. My DS (hey I'm getting the lingo down) started a small freak out yesterday when DoDMerb finally posted "Does not meet medical standards" instead of something like "remedial requested" which he was thinking he would see. Went over the flow chart on the DoDMerb site and...

Thanks daw! That's excatly the info we needed.

Just a quick question because we are learning as we go. My son failed the PIP color test but was noted to have the ability to distinguish vivid red/green. Since he is applying for USCGA he must pass the Falant to be accepted. In this case, is a remedial almost a guaranty? And will the remedial...
