    NAPS Class of 2016

    DS received appointment this morning from fleet. This is his 3rd time applying. They sent a guy from deck dept to give him the letter. We are from NC not sure of major yet. Dream is Special Forces Seal or EOD. He already has a year of college from a top military prep school.

    Appointment status found in portal???

    So I just read in another thread where a candidate saw their appointment in the portal before BFE arrived. Can someone tell me where this is?? Is it the application page from USNA.edu?? My son is candidate from the fleet so we are not clear on how he will be informed. Thank you

    Your thoughts appointment ??

    I was told his application looks really good because he has a year of college. He took 36 hours and has an A in Calculus. Applying from the fleet is totally different than the first 2 times he applied.

    Number of appointments for enlisted from fleet

    I completely understand nomination and appointment. This is our 3rd time to this rodeo. I would like to have some knowledge of how many get an appointment versus how many complete a qualified application from the fleet.

    Number of appointments for enlisted from fleet

    Usnabgo08 I am reading those numbers the way you are. It appears the enlisted spots are not all being taken. My DS meets all requirements just waiting on DODMERB which he has passed the prior 2 times. I am praying that I am understanding correctly and he should receive appointment this time around.

    Third try is a charm!

    Thank you for your insight. We are cautiously optimist but know the character of our son and he will be a leader whatever path is there. The day he took the oath the top Navy officer took me and his father aside and told us that our son was exactly what the navy needs and he predicted a stellar...
