Once you're at the USMA, what is the grading like? Since it's not like high school with AP classes, etc., what is considered a good GPA?

Got a letter from DS today, one week after R-Day. He's sent a few letters separately to the family, mostly upbeat. This letter was addressed just to me. He said he may have made the wrong decision going to West Point. He enjoys the physical challenges of Beast, but didn't really appreciate...

UPDATE--my son traded messages with his RC a few times. There was some confusion, but Admissions had the transcripts, but had not updated the portal. They have not considered his admission yet because it wasn't "official" that the transcripts were received. The portal was updated, and he has...

He's at university now, so they came directly from the school. There's been no indication of a reason for rejection. It is curious, because it's been several weeks since the first one was sent. I hope that they are not delaying a decision because of this.

My son's portal has this message, despite his sending his first semester transcript three separate times. He got the "application closed" message, but then it was reversed and it's open now. His RC reported via email that they have the transcript but didn't give any other info. He's gotten a...

Same thing happened to my son. He's a college re-applicant, and the message "you need to send in your college transcripts" is still red. He's sent in the transcripts three times and his RC sent an email that they've been received and are on file, but there's no portal update. The on the...

Heartbreaking news today. My DS got an LOE, was sent a "2Q" letter and got a MOC nomination. Unfortunately, he got a DQ for taking ADHD medicine, which was ended by the doctor 15 months ago. His doctor wrote a letter stating that he's been off the medicine because there were no longer any...

Per the new May 2018 rules, it's a DQ if you've taken ADHD medication within 24 months of the DODMERB exam. You'll have to get a waiver otherwise. Keep in mind "getting off the medication" is getting the doctor that prescribed it to state that your symptoms to not present any longer. You...

We had a unique situation with my son. On box 85 (physician's or examiner's comments), DODMERB reported that it was incomplete or illegible, so it was put into Remedial status. We called Concorde, and they saw that the examiner had notes on a different paper to be included with what they sent...

My son is applying to West Point and just got a notice of Remedial/AMI from DoDMERB: * 251.02--DD Form 2492 is incomplete--box 85 is incomplete or illegible. This box is on the DODMERB form for "Examiner's Summary and Elaboration of All Pertinent Data". We called the clinic where he was...

Thanks for all the replies. As of this morning, his application is 100% complete, so hopefully the email gets to him soon. It was a little confusing--it seemed that many candidates got a DODMETS email before the application was completed.

Thanks Landy91. I will post a few more things so I can DM.

His CFA: 95, 11, 8.31, 80, 58, 6:45

On my son's online application, he's submitted everything within his control. The CPDR, SAT/ACT scores, High School Transcripts, CAR, Candidate Statements, CFA, CFA videos and 2 of the 4 letters of recommendation are all complete. However the DODMERM section states "No Action" and "We are...
