    Did ACT deny your refunds?

    I guess I'll do that same -- so wrong ACT can get away with that.

    Did ACT deny your refunds?

    Who else here got denied refunds from ACT tests canceled in 2020? After many hours invested trying to get over $200 in owed refunds, I've given up that they will do what's right. Am I just unlucky or is this a pattern?

    New Student Indoctrination (Summer 2019)

    The hats (covers) my DS was issued at NSI are too small, especially now that he has hair. Anyone know how those get swapped out for the proper size? The unit has not met yet and I'm wondering if this is something we should resolve before he reports, or if they will assist him in getting the...

    New Student Indoctrination (Summer 2019)

    I heard from a parent of a current NSI 1 candidate that they not only confiscate everything (except contacts/glasses, feminine hygiene, mouth retainers, and prescription medications), but that they throw it away (OTC meds, sunscreen, etc). You get issued everything they want you to have, or you...

    UC Berkeley NROTC Roommates

    Not roommate related, but Berkeley specific. Did your students use a dry cleaner to get ROTC uniforms cleaned? Closest one I saw on google maps was several blocks off campus. Any tips on how to keep uniforms clean and pressed appropriately? Do most wash and press their own gear? Just curious...

    Navy ROTC NSI Travel Orders

    For those that received travel orders, were they sent via email? Did they come directly from your unit, Navy central, or from the airline direct?

    Packing list for New Student Indoc

    Your list is more in depth than any info we've been given. We still have not even received flight info for session 1 (5 days away)! This is all we were told to bring: - a small bag with one day worth of clothes plus toiletries / medications (the bag of clothes is taken away after uniforms are...

    I can't believe I'm already asking this question

    I wanted to throw this out there as well. Going out of state can wreak havoc on allergies and asthma, even if your DD gets weaned off the inhaler now. Both my kids were fine at home, but had problems out of state; something to keep in mind.

    State Nomination Threads - Moderated

    We're in SoCal but I'd rather not say our district. Son never heard from Harris either but since some interviewed with her office in December, I'm assuming my son was not chosen by Harris as a possible nominee.

    State Nomination Threads - Moderated

    No, son only applied to one academy, so they don't want to duplicate/waste nominations. If he had applied to several academies, perhaps he would have received both, but who knows.

    State Nomination Threads - Moderated

    No, LOA/LOE. Good grades and test scores, leadership, scouts, patriotic community service. We're in a competitive area, and are aware of LOAs offered to several athletes, so although he'd be a great fit, we wouldn't be surprised if they filled the quota with the athletes.

    State Nomination Threads - Moderated

    Son was notified on November 27 that he was selected for an interview with Feinstein, scheduled on Dec 1. It sounded like that was the only day they were holding interviews (by phone), in 1/2 hour increments between 9am and 2pm. He has not heard from Senator Harris. Unfortunately, he did not...
