    Virginia Nominations

    Nominations with two LOAs

    I was wondering if a LOA would affect whether or not a nomination is given, especially in a very competitive state like VA. From what I've read, MOCs don't use their nominations on LOA recipients in order to keep a nom for candidates that are competing for open slots. So would a LOA from two...

    The importance of a senior schedule?

    How important is my senior schedule? I'm sure I will have to send in grade updates during my senior year. I've exhausted the AP classes that are offered at my school and I currently don't have a fourth block class in the fall or a math class. Will it look like I'm slacking off and hurt my...

    LOAs for 2014

    I know this may be too early, but does anyone have information about when LOAs come this year for class of 2019? I've read other forums from previous years where people received LOAs around July, but I'm not sure if anyone this year has received an LOA yet.

    Open portal on July 1

    :confused: Until yesterday, I was seeing a message that said something like "earliest evaluations for prospective 2019 students will not be open until August 13" but I received an email this morning notifying me that my portal is now open. Is there a reason why my portal is open before August...
