My son did first rotation on Eagle then Summer school, and then had 3 weeks leave before reporting back to Academy.

How many are selected for AIM?

Easier to change from Engineering major to another Engineering major, but next to impossible to change from Engineering to Government or Management unless your struggling in the classroom. My 4/c was told Management was reserved for cadets that had a GPA lower than 2.0 by the Dean of...

There were offers from CGAS waitlist last year. My DS received offer just before Memorial Day weekend.

If you have not already done so, I recommend speaking with CAPT Freddie to see where you can improve for next year if you decide to reapply. I know Service Academies put an emphasis on Varsity Sports so without any your PFE score needs to be higher to be more competitive.

My DS was EA then deferred to RA and waitlisted last year. He received a CGAS appointment just before Memorial Day. Earlier this week he received his appointment to the Academy, so hang in there!

Last year many decisions were released late afternoon on day prior to the deadline date.

DS let coaches know that he applied to Coast Guard Academy, but he signed a Letter of Intent and planned to attend civilian university if he did not receive an offer of admission from CGA. When he received and accepted CGAS offer his civilian college coach released him from his Letter of Intent.

Hang in there, but finalize back up plan just in case. My DS was a recruited athlete and did not hear anything until just before Memorial Day when he received his CGAS offer last year. Coast Guard does not reserve spots for sports teams like West Point, AFA and Naval Academy.

A few appointments will be offered tomorrow during Admiral's visit to MMI for CGAS and Self-Prep cadets there.

Congratulations to your son and your family. He should be proud of both accomplishments (Academy Appointment and Football Recruitment/Offer) and however he wishes to celebrate both accomplishments will be fine. If he decides to have it acknowledged that he will be playing football at the...

Not sure for this year, but last year bulk of TWEs went out on deadline.

Here's a passage from the current year's Coast Guard Academy Scholar (CGAS) Program Handbook. We will review each Scholar’s file at mid-term and at the end of each term. For those attending MMI, if you do not achieve a minimum GPA of 2.0 in your core classes or receive an F in any of your core...

Heard early notifications for CGAS-MMI cadet candidates is 29 March which coincides with Admiral's visit.

I can tell you that my DS was a recruited athlete and the son of a West Point grad and retired Army Officer. He received his offer for CGAS the final week of May last year.

Sounds like they'll need to lean more on the 60+ CGAS cadets for mentoring their classmates during Swab summer.

It does, so you start as an O-1 with 1 year of service when commissioned. Another CGAS perk!
