    Advice for a Frustated Dad Please.

    Thanks to F15DOC for posting. Our son is also in the process of deciding between 2 SA and civilian colleges. It has been helpful to read the responses and to know that the decision is not an easy one for every appointee.

    Deck jobs after graduation

    Thanks to all for the responses. My son has been following them. For someone not familiar with the industry, it isn't clear where exactly the deck major leads other than deep water (which is a perfectly fine option). Would anyone care to guess the percentage of grads that end up on cargo...

    Timeline for TWIC

    Thank you! Will get the passport first and then apply for the TWIC card. I wonder if it makes a difference what part of the country you live in. What state are you?

    Timeline for TWIC

    My son received an appointment and will likely accept but is waiting to hear from a few other options. It is my understanding that he should have his TWIC when he arrives at Kings Point. The site stated a $128 fee and an up to 45 day time frame from the time of his scheduled in-person...

    No nomination and no TWE?

    DS received response today from admissions rep that, since he never received a nom, his file was considered incomplete and was never reviewed and, therefore, he would never receive a TWE. He had applied for a VP nom and was hoping for that even though he knew the odds were against that...

    No nomination and no TWE?

    DS was triple qualified but was unable to attain a nomination in our competitive district. He has not received a TWE although, of course, it would seem that he is out of the running for any sort of nomination, including a Vice Presidential nom at this point. Is anyone else in the same...
