Did not even think of that. That might even be better than the appointment;)!

trueblue22/DS/March,3 22/Accepting/MOC/Direct Appointment/CA 5 years ago at this time, we were holding our breath for our older son to see if he received his appointment to the USNA. He did not. He ended up going to the University of San Diego, for a year and reapplied. On his 2nd attempt, he...

DS was a re-applicant last year after not making it the first time. He is now at the Academy and flourishing. I kept in touch with 2 individuals who were heartbroken last year when they did not make and I am so incredibly happy to hear that both of them received appointments this year . I...

Good Luck to all applying for the class of 2023. My DS was an applicant of class of 2021, received a nomination, but did not receive the appointment. He did not give up, went to College for a year and reapplied for the class of 2022. He got his nomination, but did not receive the Appointment...

I think it is wonderful that you all are willing to give your advice for these young men and women. I know that NoGaNavyMom, like us, are getting ready for Plebe Summer, but it puts a smile on my face to see that you are all still on the forum helping others out. I have received some PM...

My sons concerns were the same as yours. U. C. San Diego did not offer ROTC so he would have had to travel to San Diego State and the time factor was just too much. UCSD is on the quarter system so he took English, Political Science, Calculus 20A and Chemistry 6A his First Quarter. He decided...

Reapply, Reapply, Reapply!!! It's a few hoops to jump through, but so many re-applicants are accepted!!!! Good luck !!!

Don't worry about any other scores. There are Districts that have lots of qualified people, all with high ACT Scores/SAT scores, High GPA's, Volunteer hrs etc... and they do not get in for one reason or another. There are other Districts that are not so competitive that could not compete...

usnacandidate3623- Young kids these days have so many option, Thank you for putting the choice to serve your Country as your top option. I really mean it!!! Keep focused and it will happen. It will happen!!! Go class of 2023, Go Navy!!!!

Hi Adrain, You should find out one way or the other by the 15th. I know it is stressful, but they say nothing good every comes easy. I will have my fingers crossed for you. We went through this last year when our DS was wait listed. We got some amazing advice from amazing people. If you...

My son has been Appointed, so I have no need to be on this Forum any longer. I am here to give support for those that are finding out that they did not make it this year, and hoping to persuade them the reapply, since I had people last year give my family the same support. Please realize that...

statechamps2017- Keep the faith, you have the right mindset, and exactly what the military needs if you are willing to wait for what you want. You will get it. Your credentials sound amazing. I agree we need to keep politics out of it, but also believe that we all can agree that this Country...

Don't let it end your dream!!!

I am not sure if there is a way to find out the exact number, but I heard it was very small, just a few. Don't give up hope!!! There is always hope! Start Plan B, 4 year college if you can, and take classes similar to Plebe year, and reapply. Good Luck!

Our DS last year was put on the wait list Mid April and was given news right around May 1, that he did not make it off the wait list. This allowed us pay the deposit for another University. Don't give up the hope of getting in, but make sure you start the process of plan B. The small deposit...

I believe they do their best to get everyone an answer by April 15th. That does not mean that you will not get an appointment after that date, but they should have some sort of answer to you by then. Our DS was put on the wait-list last year on April 8th and then told after the 1st of May that...

I hear that the prep schools/foundation schools are wonderful and do amazing things to get them prepared for the academy, and that the number getting into the academy after attending a prep/foundation school is very, very large. They will have such a leg up next year. You both should be very...

We are all in this together. All of these kids have options and if the Academy is where they want to be, we have all done something right:). I have no doubt you will be on this forum next year with your own positive story!!!! Don't give up!!!

NADSFAM- My DS was extremely qualified last year. Got into 5 top schools in CA, but was wait-listed to USNA. He thought it was the end of the world, so did we. Applied again this year and made it. This is a forever/life changing opportunity for these kids. This extra year, I believe has...
