We didn't get an answer for our son until late May one year. Long story short, My son got Prep school offered year 1 in late May, Early May on year 2 - and because there was an injury and he couldn't' go year 2- our answer on year 3, came in April It's patience, and it should be easier- but it...

My son came across a similar situation. I would ensure to email your admissions officer with an explanation. My son sent an email to his admissions officer and coach when he first started having issues with the class. and then ultimately when he decided to withdraw. The virtual learning and...

Technically- He was dodmerb disqualified due to an injury. He was in a boot and couldn't run. He would not have been able to participate in any of the INDOC activities.... This would have been the case at any of the academies. We were going to try to get him a waiver in the 2 weeks we had- but...

I just want to reach out and say.... My DS got into an accident days before I day.... technically a sprained ankle.... but he was in a boot. This was after a year we thought he would be attending and ended up at NMMI (came in late May) We are now on year 3.... yes you read that right.... year...

It has been a while since I’ve posted. But.... third year applying.... and we have our 2nd year in a row acceptance! date of acceptance 3/31, DS, MD, Senate appointment (6th appointment... is there a record 🤦🏻‍♀️) no LOA though he was a recruited athlete the first year I have no idea what...

I would have probably sent him back to NMMI if 1: he was recovered completely and didn’t need the PT and 2: the coronavirus. When he came home in the spring, he didn’t know he would be staying home. We didn’t have a good experience. We both think they will end up sending cadets home again. He...

yes. He applied for class of 2023 and was given a prep spot in May of 2019. Did his year at NMMI and was in this year! And 2 weeks before Indoc, hewas in an accident and injured in ankle. He has started his application and will have to start with dodmerb all new.... 🤦🏻‍♀️

I’m sorry guys. It’s been an interesting ride. He did the right thing by letting everyone know as soon as he knew he wouldn’t be able to make it. I was the mom on the Facebook page, and I’m heartbroken. There is no med-setback to be had. Only if he had made it to campus. If he had shown up with...

someone told me a medical setback is only if you stepped foot on campus, and that I would have been better off sending him and having them turn him around. I’m a little worried about dealing with Watson, the whole thing is making me very nervous

If someone has any advice feel free to send me a message. I will pay it forward once I can see the light on the other side of this.

All is not well, but we have to deal with it. Once we get official word I will update...... just hoping for a Medical setback.

#64 accepted but has since been in an accident last week. He may have an injury that will change his medical status. He is at the doctors now..... what a traumatic turn of events.

So, sorry!! Teaching in these times has taken up so much of my time I forgot about updates! I honestly don’t remember his appointment for this year, he had 3 last year, I believe it was senate. I can’t believe I can’t remember. He has really handled this all on his own. I’ll make that last...

Finally got it... 2 years of hard work, patience, melt downs, self doubt, prep year, corona virus, medical stuff, dodmerb, waivers and waiting..... Even yesterday realizing the BFE was sent to an old address. All we could do was laugh.... seriously. Because after waiting all spring last year...

Well wouldn’t you know, DS got a notification that a package was delivered from UsMMA.... old address. Called previous address and fed ex took it with him since we don’t live there anymore. So now hoping we will get “package” sooner or later lol

Your enthusiasm is amazing. Just like someone else on you team earlier today who sent my son and I a very nice email. Although this has been long, I am thankful for the kindness of the people we worked with at Dodmerb

we also received the medical waiver. My DS has been ad NMMI this year as a sponsored cadet. Last summer, before he left, he had a minor medical thing come up. We called dodmerb about it and it blew up.... thankfully after many many back and forth, he finally received his medical waiver!!

So My DS is headed to NMMI next week and we haven't bought a thing.... Anyone have any pointers? We are flying in from across the country and I was thinking we could just buy everything there. Also does he bring his cellphone on the first day and they take it for the first couple of weeks? How...

Congrats! My DS was updated this week to reflect his offer to NMMI as well.

Question- Is there a general scholarship amount for those that are offered prep school? We thought he was in- but it looks like prep school for him. Now we are trying to gather all the necessary info.
