My Aggie was Blinn. It was a great way to go to TAMU when you apply in December (Don’t get me started on that…he has since learned his lesson). Blinn worked - it wasn’t ideal as it’s a 20-30min bus ride to classes, and we found their administrative side archaic at best - but he got his...

Yes they were deactivated. This happens from time to time depending on numbers and recruiting etc. Sometimes it’s just better to give an outfit a few years ”off” — my Aggie came into 11 after they reactivated so it’s not necessarily forever. As to PT - my Aggie chose 11 because of their...

Dunno. We were PPQ so you would think longer leash but nope ‍♀️ Oh well. DS mentioned applying again to my shock

well we're out - official TWE this morning. If I'm completely honest, I'm bummed but not as much as I thought I'd be. Highly disappointed in how long it took them esp considering other SAs were weeks ahead of things. Moving right along to plan B and my only real gripe is now I'm going to have...

That's awesome skiergirl24!! So at midnight-ish colorado time? How odd; assume you'd checked earlier in the day as well - meaning your portal updated randomly during yesterday? Whatever - an appointment is an appointment! Congratulations!!

.....still waiting.....{{ugh}}

friends DD is 1mo away from commission and broke a bone. Not a serious break- splint only. Dodmerb will have to recheck and not cleared for PT for at min 30days. Can’t take commissioning final PT test— can’t commission until test and dodmerb review are done. Any idea when that might be/happen...

It's funny - I did just that yesterday to be sure registering for august NSC wouldn't be too late to get decent classes; we do have a couple of friends whose kids are there now so I'll go that route. LOL

That's sad. We did it and found our forever cadet. LOL! He called and requested we join the sponsor program so he could be our cadet. We agreed and 7 years later we are super close with his family and he will be arriving to where we are just before we leave this summer. He's like my other...

Yeah but only one of those 4 sucks -- LOL!

After 25yrs of active duty living, I'm used to it. Doesn't make it any less frustrating though; esp when none of the travel is reimbursable :p

I would *think* you could get a waiver. At my school they did and that was AGES ago. Lol!!

I know. I need to book about $4k worth of travel this summer and don’t know when/what to book. Very frustrating but glad to know I’m in good company

Thank you Kinnem - I appreciate the insight. I wish we could just drop in; we are overseas right now and with decision day 1 May, there are really only 2 weekends I could put him on a plane to texas; I'm looking at it actually - about $950 and 13hrs of travel. Yowzas. He and I spoke about it...

Ma'am, but it's all good. LOL! I feel like either one will give him a fantastic engineering degree to be proud of; and if he were going to go civilian, I'd say Mines - but where that degree comes from if your main goal is commission is kind of immaterial - I was an english major for pete's...

So DS is waiting and waiting on USAFA but recognizes the percentages are changing rapidly chances wise. We are digging in deep on Plan B but here's the rub - He knows he wants to commission - he's *pretty sure* he wants to go comp sci but is open to that changing...- he's been accepted at his...

^^ THIS - so much THIS

Why disenroll - why not delay/have you repeat your 300 year? It sounds more involved than just your age from here. Did you come straight out of HS into the cadet corps? and they let you in as a 250? It just sounds....off. Do they think you're too young or you don't have the right "stuff" to...
