Yes I am very familiar with the defintion of "Petit larceny". I often have to give the bad news to prospective employees that we are unable to hire them due to the fact a charge of Petty larceny has shown up on their background check. In our companies opinion it is not the monitary value of the...

I dont think its a good idea to get a kids hopes up by telling them that they are probably OK when there is no way you can know that. This kid deserves honest advice and kinnems advice while not good news is right on. An arrest and charge of petty larceny is serious business and the decision...

He made it all the way to the waitlist and then got the TWE. Now that i remember it was the fact that his DODMERB was still up in the air and he was deferred due to that. We were scared at first as you are because the word deferred just doesnt sound good. We communicated directly with his...

Is his packet 100% complete? This happened to my son last year and if I remember correctly it just meant that it was not ready for review due to incomplete information.

My DS made it all the way to the waitlist for the class of 2018 and is reapplying to the class of 2019. Do college reapplicants still have a shot at recieving an LOA?

I am not sure who at the Academy would tell you that you have an impressive application because a quick google search would reveal to you that your stats are far below what it takes to be competitive at USNA (just being honest). You are also struggling at the end of your 3rd year in college...

Lines 1 and 2 were on all the waitlister letters, but where do the statistics from line 3 come from? Those are the most interesting. Thanks

Thanks JShawshank and you are correct about being on semesters, DS sent an email to his admissions counseor and we just have not heard back yet. You gave some great advice on alternatives and I will keep anyone who has a DS/DD waitlister on semesters any answers we get from our USNA AC and...

My DS recieved his letter from USNA stating he was selected for the waitlist. They are also requesting a school official to scan and email his most recent grades/transcripts to include the spring semester. Spring semester transcripts wont be available until the first week of June at the soonest...

I dont mean to be a Debbie Downer but the Sox ultimatley lost that series to the Cardinals in 7 games. I am a nut for stats as Kinnem can attest as he tried to slip the University of South Carolina by us the other day and got caught.:yllol:

That was awesome! Wrapping up my evening forum read here in So Cal. my wife was looking over my shoulder watching the video and said who in the hell would do that job. When the reveal came she started chuckling, looked at me and said SEE! and went back to folding laundry at 11:30 at night. 4...

Congratulations! this is positive news for the rest of us in this situation. Thanks

While the University of South Carolina might be a good school, I don't think I have ever seen it in the same sentence as Harvard,MIT,Yale and Stanford. I am sure it was added for sentimental reasons. Just trying to break up the last 2 stressful days of waiting. Go Gamecocks!

Thanks for this vital info. DS in same exact situation. 1. What date did your DS recieve the foundation letter? 2. Did he accept the foundation offer and did he get his appointment this year? Very curious, thanks

Waitlist kids The waitlist letter from USNA states "The waitlist is composed of students our admissions board would like to have in our entering class but for whom there were not enough spaces available". Could the waitlist kids get nominated for foundation seeing as USNA wanted them and...

Thanks so much usna1985 for clarifying. I posted another pertinent question on the Reaaplicant sticky but got little response. If you are reapplying as a college Freshman what Congressional district or Sentors do you apply to if your DS or DD goes to school in a different state? For...

Good luck to each of the candidates in this situation, but while we are on the subject i had a question. Why are the MOC's allowed so many different nominating options? Regardless of which of the 3 options everyone prefers it should be consistent throughout the country. In a lot of cases it is...

Mail has arrived in Southern California and nothing from NAVY.
