    DS is headed to San Diego next week for CORTRAMID - received his travel information today! He is very excited, and especially after being really bummed when NSI was cancelled last summer.

    USNA 2025 Waiting and....Waiting

    DS, a college re-applicant, also received a TWE today. It is particularly disappointing, considering that he followed through with all of the specific re-applicant advice (and far beyond) from both USNA Admissions and the threads on this Forum. On the bright side, he will continue pursuing his...

    USNA 2025 Waiting and....Waiting

    With the exception of not being on last year's USNA waitlist (though he did make last year's USCGA waitlist) and 2 vs. 3. noms this year, you just described my DS. He followed all of the advice in the reapplicant sticky thread, and that's the best he could do.

    Wait List

    Cross-posting with @usna1985 A similar question was asked at Candidate Visit Weekend which we attended with our DS a couple of years ago. The Admissions Officer explained that the USNA Wait List doesn't really work that way with a sequence of straight ranked candidates to pick from. Instead...

    USNA 2025 Waiting and....Waiting

    Not a silly question, and that is exactly how it worked last year - DS received an email from USNA Admissions stating that their decision was ready on his portal. From there, he logged in and opened the TWE. Don't know if it's the same process this year.

    College Re-Applicant DODMERB

    See if this helps - I posted this summary last month on the re-applicant thread:

    Reapplying to USNA (after a turndown)

    Lesson learned from my DS and passing this on to all reapplicants for this and future years: If your medical examination status still shows as "Not Received" on your portal, be sure to check your DODMERB account for requests to complete two short questionnaires - one general, one COVID (as well...

    CGA Waitlist

    After giving it a tremendous amount of thought since landing on the USCGA waitlist earlier this year, DS decided that although the Coast Guard is a fantastic organization with lots of opportunities, he ultimately wants to be a Naval officer. He is currently in his freshman year as an NROTC...

    Those of Us Still Waiting

    DS received the waitlist letter for CGA Appointment in the last hour. He was also waitlisted for AIM last year, though ultimately not offered a spot. Did not apply EA.

    Regular Admissions - Interviews anyone?

    No - still blank. Seems like that would not be checked until after the interview was complete and the report submitted by the interviewer?

    When is I-Day for class of 2024?

    Also, some NY school districts are off for February break (week of President’s Day) as well as some religious holidays that are not as commonly observed in other areas of the country. This also pushes out the calendar well into June.

    NROTC late January board

    DS received an email today from his #4 choice NROTC unit congratulating him on being selected for the 4 year scholarship. He logged into Netfocus and it states that he did receive it. I hope - really hope - this is not in error. He has not received any other communications about the...

    Eagle Scouts

    DS just passed his Eagle BOR in November (just in time for all his college and scholarship applications!) and he received the award last week at a Court of Honor for 5 scouts from the troop who made Eagle over the last year or so. He is now a JASM and previously led as SPL and several other...

    NROTC January Board

    DS’s NROTC recruiter sent an email in December that said the Board is expected to meet the week of Jan 13th and that all application materials had to be submitted by January 6th in order for a candidate’s package to be reviewed at this Board. There was no mention of whether there would be...
