I believe that the NJ senators Booker and Menendez coordinate nominations.

This is not Halo. Or Star Wars. Or anything else. This is Real Life. There are no space battles, and likely won't be for a long time.

You should be training, training, training, throwing up, and then training some more. Run in the cold, in the heat, whenever. Preferably you should practice under "test day conditions."

I had the prelim questionnaire filled out as soon as it opened. My Candidate Kit triggered on July 10.

Does America really need a Space Force right now???

Congrats!!

"Most senators" certainly does not include Senators Booker and Menendez of New Jersey! Every candidate who submitted a NOM app received an interview.

I didn't really understand the question. I've had a JROTC nom since 23 SEPT so my medical waiver was processed (and subsequently denied) pretty quickly. If you're asking how my ED application to Carnegie turned out... I got rejected. But plan c, d, e, f are all lined up!

I received an NJ-03 Congressional nom to USNA as of Dec 17. Even though I am "Turned Down Medically"... 🤔

No. The person/people who write(s) a LOR (free write) cannot be one of your evaluators. Evaluators = required. They fill out a form LOR (Letter of recommendation) = optional. This is like any standard LOR you would ask for a civilian college or even a job.

Yes, but, USNA stated in their letter to me that it would "unlikely to commission in the Unrestricted Line of Navy..." which possibly (however small that possibility is) leaves open a commission in the Restricted Line (which I had wanted to do anyways). Thanks! Good luck to your DD as well!

My waiver for both USNA and USAFA was started when I was probably 75% through the process, on 8 OCT. This was well before the NJ Senators and my Congressman's nomination interview. I did, however, hold a JROTC honor unit nomination at that time.

I mean if you were a suit in your own house then go ahead!

I just completed my ALO interview today. I am officially CPR for USAFA (and USNA). I also completed my congressman's and both senators' interviews. So now the Long Wait begins for me!

This type of post is allowed, but what everyone is going to say is "nobody knows your chances or those of anyone else." There are just too many variables going into each applicant. That being said, I am a scholarship recipient and so I will try to give you some meaningful feedback. I can only...
