Thank you Midmom for your encouraging note and for your prayers. This is all a new experience, but we are writing to him regularly, and also discovered Project Write2Them. That's a great site so that other friends and family can also send a note. I must admit, it felt much better after we...

Thank you for this note. My husband and I saw our Plebe off on I-day. USNA does put on a great show I must say. When we met our son briefly after the oath, he still had a smile, though he was overwhelmed. He said he got yelled at already, but he wasn't alone. We met several families that were...

Congratulations @Paul111 - I was so eager to share the link to help you decide, that I did not realize you have accepted your offer. Even so, checkout academyinsider.com ... the words that resonated with my son were "Be the peer pressure".

Thanks to all the helpful folks who already shared their thoughts. I want to share this link as it greatly helped my son who was in a similar situation. He went to CVW a few weeks back and accepted the offer as soon as he returned, knowing that his life will be different and challenging. We are...

Does anyone know the schedule between parents weekend which is Aug 9-12, and Fall semester which begins on Monday, Aug 20th this year? Will the plebes spend time with family just for the weekend and then return to the campus or Yard (I'm learning the lingo slowly) ... or do they only need to...

Thank you all!

Hello all, I wasn't sure what my subject line should be, but that's what comes to mind right now. We are very proud of our son who just received an appointment at USNA for class of 2022, and we will be visiting (CVW) in April, and greatly looking forward to it! My questions/thoughts are around...

I have been following all the updates and excitement on this forum for a few weeks. This is one good bunch of people encouraging and helping each other. I was on a conference call this morning in my home office and my son rushed in to show an email that he received from USNA with a letter of...

Hello, We are first time parents when it comes to service academy application. Our son's application is complete, and he received a nomination from Congressman in the beginning of January. He also completed a medical examination in the second week of January, and there was nothing of concern...
