    What does a waiver mean?

    I’d just received a medical waiver this morning for exceeding USAFA’s body fat standards. On the last line, the notification said “You have our best wishes for success as you prepare to join the Class of 2023.” Is this a good sign? Does this mean I can expect an appointment soon? If anyone’s...

    Failed Body Fat Test

    I’m a 5’6” female who just recently failed the Body Fat Test (31% instead of 26%). Admissions sent me a message through the portal informing me that if they deem me competitive, they might ask me to be remeasured or request a waiver for me.

    District Competitiveness

    Hello, As MOC nominations slowly begin, I was wondering what is considered a “competitive” district? I emailed my District Director and he said our respective district receives around 10 applicants each year for USNA. Is that considered highly competitive?

    Congressional Nominations Interview

    Hello, I will be having my MOC Interview in a few weeks for my nomination. I was wondering, are interviews normally set up with 1 applicant facing the panel or are all applicants in the area/state interviewed in the same room at the same time? Thanks so much.
