    I guess that is where crossing fingers for good luck came from.

    USNA Color Vision Waiver Agreement- Marine Ground?

    I am aware of a waiver for "not correctable to 20/20". No AMI was requested for that particular DQ. I couldn't tell you the specifics/measurements, etc. Just the dq and then the waiver granted after another DQ item was tested and resolved.

    USNA Class of 2028 Waiting and Speculating

    That's crazy. That is one thing I like about NC. They limit by law the number of out-of-state students, so they cannot do that to residents.

    Dad Joke thread (everybody welcome)

    I've seen a similar gourmet meal made from a salted legume puree paired with a concord grape reduction on a decrusted brioche bun.

    USNA Class of 2028 Waiting and Speculating

    Generally there is a final big group of twe and waitlist invites. I would still suspect those could come at any time.

    Health insurance - qual event?

    Obviously ask your plan administrator, but I would think it would be. Its a new job.

    OK, that definitely seems like a loop on the roller coaster.

    USNA Class of 2028 Waiting and Speculating

    Not necessarily. I believe the consensus on older threads is that if an applicant has already demonstrated a stable academic record then USNA may not need to add data points to their decision matrix. However, for some applicants, the 9-11 grade transcript may have left a question due to lack...

    Veteran Educational Benefits Under Discussion

    It is still an interesting topic. I've read a lot of angry redditers regarding the loss of credential money. And who knows what the TA change might be and those destroy recruiting any more than it already is.

    "Was an Individualized Education Program (IEP) and/or 504 plan ever recommended or prescribed for you?"

    If the wording is exactly like the thread title, then I would also assume No. The therapist didn't prescribe (or necessarily recommend) a 504/IEP, only provided evidence to support a 504/IEP as an option. (based on info provided). Likewise, the school never prescribed or recommended it, as...

    Changes to SA Nominations

    How many MOCs dont submit a single nom? And do those slots go unused, or become wildcards for the SAs to use elsewhere? I can't imagine that there are many any given year...

    Replying to this thread everyday until an appointment/rejection

    Not to stir up the mob... but generally the guidance is "BY" the 15th. The last 3-4 years, the massive go/no-go emails have happened mid-week the week prior. So, I would guess by Thursday of this week most should hear something. Again. totally a guess based on previous few years. Nothing from...

    2024 Iowa vs South Carolina

    IMO, It wont be long before it negatively affects college sports. Simply too many teams and sports to effectively monitor the points shaving or worse, revenge attacks on players.

    Changes to SA Nominations

    I see this has a double edged sword. It allows more hope in January and more disappointment in April. In some ways, it waters down the nom process. The number of MOC noms are going from around 6700 to10k. (assuming 1/4 get the 2nd slate each year). That should be over 50% of all applicants...

    New Updates on Havana Syndrome

    It seems really interesting considering the official response a year ago (after investigating it) was that it definitely wasnt caused by a foreign adversary. Then a year later, yes it was.

    Is it worth it financially?

    Just remember every decision, every transaction has opportunity costs. Can you survive and possibly thrive under that outcome, sure. You would also be paying back the starter loan and college loan at same time. But, are there other options that allow you to be debtless in 4 years, and able...
