    Re-Applying - Question About Timing

    I've read the re-applying sticky thoroughly and I do not see an answer to our question. DS will be finishing up his nomination applications before he leaves for college. We know these must be done by the due dates in October. For a valid reason, DS would like to postpone opening his online...

    Letters of recommendation for re-applicants

    What are your thoughts regarding using the same people so their letters of recommendation would be virtually the same as last year for the nomination packages? These packages are due in October so we've decided DS should get them done this summer. Obviously his letters of recommendation for the...

    Quick question. I've done a search but don't see the answer. Has anyone seen an asthma DQ receive a waiver without being asked to have the methacholine test? Thanks.

    April 15th

    I'm asking this to those who've been on this forum a long time or someone who's spent an exorbitant amount of time looking back through the thread and have found a trend. And I'm just asking for reference for those of us who are (or have a DD/DS) still with Candidate status and feeling like we...

    NROTC Waiver

    I posted this over in DoDMERB discussion but I'm going to post here also since I've not seen a response to the thread. DS received a 4 year NROTC scholarship. The contact with the NROTC Medical Coordinator said they send his file to BUMED (whatever the heck that is) on March 12th and that it...

    NROTC Waiver

    DS received a 4 year NROTC scholarship. The contact with the NROTC Medical Coordinator said they send his file to BUMED (whatever the heck that is) on March 12th and that it could take 8 weeks for the waiver decision. She said: "If you would like, you can provide information related to your DQ...

    Portal Link

    DS went to check his portal last night, like he does often lately, and the big yellow CONTINUE APPLICATION button is gone off the admissions page. www.usna.edu/Admissions/Apply When you clicked it it took you to the log in page. Anyone have the link to the log in page? We tried for a good bit...

    Waivers

    We've read the waiver timeframe post above, lots of posts about waivers on this page, and the info on waivers on the DodMERB website so now we're just looking for confirmation of our understanding and maybe answers to questions that probably no one actually would know the answer to...

    VP nomination question

    So did anyone receive and email confirmation after filling out the form and hitting submit? My son did not and I find that strange in today's day and time when you receive a confirmation for everything you do it seems. In fact, he swears he filled it out months ago but because he didn't have a...

    Multiple Nominations

    I've seen pics on the internet of kids with multiple appointments. Can someone offer some insight on how this is possible and if there is a way, when completing the nomination packages to give oneself a chance to receive more than one nomination? The site search of this forum offered some...

    Now that DS is a Candidate

    DS received an email this morning and he logged on and found he was promoted to candidate status. Maybe they just roled out these promotions today (July 1)? He actually had his interview with the BGO last Friday for USNA. He loved NASS. He's given a heads up to his teachers and evals and...
