    USCGA Class of 2025 Appointment Thread

    @sabman in support of what you are saying, my DD received her appointment EA in December and was not a recruited athlete (she actually received her first varsity letter while her application was under consideration) and we have no relatives that have been part of the Coast Guard. She might be a...

    Is it too late to add to portfolio?

    My DD's AO said nothing could be added because it was past the EA deadline. Then we found here on the Forums by user @Objee that things could be added once it was forwarded to the Candidate Evaluation Board (and after) by directly sending all update information to LT Eric Back...

    Regular Admission appointments 2025

    Although my DD was told the same as @DonnieDarko77 during Aim, LCDR Soon Park told DD to talk to AO to see if she needed to have another interview after she expressed to LCDR Soon Park that her AIM interview was her first Zoom interview and she felt she did poorly. She contact AO and he said all...

    Is the C/O 2025 Appointee Handbook released?

    It was a part of my DD's Appointee Kit, which popped up in her portal March 1st. Not sure if that was a coincidence or if all appointees received their kits March 1st.

    Curious re Scores: PSAT vs. SAT vs. Retakes

    We were told by a couple of the SAs that you must send ALL scores. Per ricckdunnjr's comment, we were also told not to worry about any low scores because 1) the final metric is the highest combine score; 2) they like to see how applicants improved over time. Thus, we took advantage of the free...

    The wheels of admissions are still turning!

    To WindandSea and ryan7771. During early action my DD received a similar email and she received her appointment notification ~5 weeks later. Not sure if this will be the timeline for RA applications. DD was told that every application is seen by 3 committees before a final decision is made so we...

    The wheels of admissions are still turning!

    For those who went to AIM and were wondering about their interviews, my DD expressed concern about her interview to LCDR Soon Park. He told her to talk to her AO to "see if you need to have another interview".

    Thanks for the info (thanks to coasttocoast too). DD said she filled it out and that online it shows complete. I know USPS is suppose to be really backed up, but will suggest she contacts AO.

    2025 State Nominations Thread

    My DD received an email from Toomey on Dec 21 (and so did at least one other person on these forums) about the USAFA. She has not received anything in the mail from Toomey. Suggest checking the junk mail folder because that is where she found the email. Two things to note: 1) the email says to...

    ConnorF2002, at least up to last year what Gabe said is correct. During last years virtual Academy Experience Program for accepted students (https://www.uscga.edu/aep/) during one of the sessions (I think the last session) the director of admissions explains when people on the waitlist might be...

    2025 State Nominations Thread

    Yes DD got a nomination for USAFA from Toomey. I imagine he is very busy in DC since he was the one pushing to limit the Fed so he broke protocol this year and sent out status by email. It is my understanding that people are also being notified if they didn’t get a nomination. Best of luck to...
