Maybe I was mistaken in the hotel chit but they did say they need to know even when they get a hotel room, recent change? Why is was it, same reason?

Visits are hard. My son just finished plebe year and while he had several 3 day weekends, liberty off the yard is different for plebes. Over nighters rare and must be banked to get. Even using VRBO and hotels now require a chit/approval in advanced. Also plan for the annual boat show in Oct as...

Question. Newbie here. If we are traveling by plane to I day, what can we expect for my DS PLebe2B to be reimbursed for his one way ticket? Is there a ceiling? The other question about flights is how do you get a discounted flight when you are in the USNA? My son does have a military ID from...

My DS is a plebe2B and I have read somewhere on this forum of the required vaccines is the Bexsero, however it is back ordered in most places. He has yet to receive that part of his packet for vaccinations so I am ahead of the game here. I also read here they can give the Bexsero to the plebes...

My son and I went over this form which he will complete during spring break. Does he need to include where he is residing at college and all the cities we lived in since he was born or just from High School on? He's e mailing his admissions counselor but I am asking here.

My DS is a college reapplicant who is on a 4yr NROTC scholarship and was appointed last Friday. He will review the required paperwork with his NROTC but we have a question. When he accepts the appointment does that immediately cancel his NROTC scholarship for next year? What is the latest he can...

Thank you jesus! LOL

I rented a small condo and it is right by the gates. Was expensive but worth it after all the fight for 2 years trying!

I rented a small condo right by the yard, it will be worth it!

Wondering where mids put all their stuff/personal and uniforms during the summers? Do we have to get it home or is there a place we could store it???? Not sure how that works versus college. Mine is a college re applicant. We are from Iowa so I am wondering if this is a road trip every year. TIA

Great thank you! Where do I get the tickets or who do I contact for tickets to eat the noon meal with him?

Hello For the PPW is there an itinerary from last year anywhere I can see what to expect for events? Do you need to reserve tickets for the parade/march shown in the pictures on the USNA website? How much will my plebe get to stay with me when I am there-sporadically or certain times or all...

Thank you but he too was rejected from STEM both times in HS. He attended two visits at the academy and still was denied. He just needed that lil edge and was able to get it this past year while attending college and NROTC. He also achieved a high GPA at a very tough college on 22 credits. This...

flying8764/DS/No LOA/Appt 3/3/3017/ACCEPTED/IA-02/Congressional and NROTC nominations/college reapplicant FINALLY!!!!!!!!!! Last year he turned down a USAFA appointment, was denied USNA and accepted a NROTC because he stayed true to his heart and his passions. Hardest thing to do was turn down...

Last year's huge wave of TWE's and appointments came during DS's spring break-2nd week in March.

Appointed college re applicants for March 1, 2017 did your portals change today to reflect your appointment? TY

Another avenue just saying if he doesn't get the NROTC MO scholarship is that if he really wants to attend NROTC at MO he can without a scholarship, but his 2nd year he probably will receive a NROTC at MO. Happened at my son's NROTC friends. My son was one of few who was awarded a 4 yr...

Sorry to hear this. My son is a college re applicant and still waiting. He is one tough kid and has literally worked harder than anyone I know. I feel your pain, I really do. Last year I stood in the bathroom stall at work and bawled. My son did much better with the news and said to me my...
