I got back from RT two nights ago. People were surprised about this but I had a lot of fun and really miss it. I thought PT was going to be difficult, but it really wasn't too bad. The hard part was the running, and it was tough for the first week, but the second week it felt a lot easier. That...

One of the things I'm looking for during my time in SC is leadership. This is the youngest I could go to RT (I hadn't heard of SC when I had the chance to become a LC, so unfortunately I don't have the opportunity to graduate as an E-3 like your DD would) so technically I could become LPO or...

I believe we PT every day at Fort Devens, for 1-2 hours. From what I've heard, it's pretty difficult. I wouldn't consider myself athletic, my avg. mile time is 10:45ish, I don't play many sports (and I'm not good at the two I play), and it's hard for me to keep up with the PT at drill. I'm...

As a recruit I was wondering how being a Sea Cadet would affect your app. I know SC itself doesn't make that big of a difference, but in what ways would it help (being Chief, honor cadet, etc...)? It does prepare you for the military but what is its value on one's application? Also, RT starts...

Email said they had 840 available spots and 5000 applicants, any reason why they would accept only 680 if that's accurate?

The email was sent to my email first and a few minutes later my parent's. If you haven't already perhaps you should check both.

My application was pretty weak, but during the five months between January and May a lot has happened. I had to edit my application twice to add more things. It wasn't everything either... for example, I attended a STEM challenge on April 29 and won second place. That would have been a great...

Saw this and just checked my email. I got the email one minute ago. I didn't get accepted :-( It ended with "**Please note, we do not accept waitlist requests. The waitlist has been pre-determined by our office and all waitlisted students have been notified of their status*" Everyone should have...

How many and do you know which sessions? Thought I received an update on my status today but it was another waitlist email, like everyone else :-(

I'm sorry if my message came off as rude... that was not my intention. I was trying to say that I'm not upset I was waitlisted because I thought I would lose the chance to improve my USNA app, but because I wanted to attend a STEM program and most likely won't. Again, I apologize. I didn't mean...

Well, I didn't apply to increase my chances of my USNA acceptance. It's a STEM program, not the gateway to Navy—I'm sure we all know that.

Who on this forum was waitlisted on session 1? Just curious. I was.

I thought it would be cool to meet her too! I just got waitlisted so maybe I have a chance. Just hoping for the best. If a miracle happens and I do get accepted I'll look forward to seeing her :-)

I got waitlisted too. Could someone explain what chances I have of getting in when waitlisted?

Well... it's 12:00 and I haven't gotten the email. Anybody else? I hope I'm wrong, but I feel like all the acceptances have gone out already and the remaining emails will be denials. I'm going to bed now

Oh god, I sure hope not lol. My last name begins with Z.

@seacadetmum Congrats! Still waiting here. I'm gonna promise myself not to check my email anymore until tomorrow :confused:

Unfortunately nothing here. I've been checking my phone in class all day. Will update you when I receive the email.

Understood. I agree, SC certainly is.

Thanks. Will make sure to PM you if I have any questions (and I will). The staff are pretty intimidating to me and feel like some lowly kid when interacting with them. Everything is just so confusing in the beginning and it would be helpful if they were more open and friendly but when everything...
