    USAFA Summer Seminar - Two Questions

    I'm not sure if the AFASS element leaders write reviews for the candidates, but I know the NASS squad leaders do, based on the candidate's performance throughout the week (leadership, teamwork, discipline, personality, etc). They also do a short 1 on 1 interview and write down their impressions...

    Nominations on the CIS

    About how long does it usually take for the CIS to have the nomination status updated? I received a nomination from my rep, dated Dec. 22, and the CIS still says I have none. Thank you :smile:

    General Admissions Question

    IMO, I'd say that the gpa and the test scores are more important than leadership/physical aptitude. I heard from my ALO that it's roughly 60% academics, 30% leadership/activities, and 10% CFA. And the interview goes somewhere in between the second and the third I assume. I'm not sure if this is...

    Do MOCs know?

    ^^^Thanks for your advice! And congrats to you too! :thumb: I think I might actually include a photo copy of the LOA in each of my nomination packets (I have yet to submit them) and see what happens.

    Do MOCs know?

    So the bottom of my letter is as quoted, "Copy to : The Honorable Cathy McMorris CR WA 5...." along with the other MOCs. Is that what that meant? I interpreted it as an imperative statement. :biggrin:

    Do MOCs know?

    I received an LOA recently, and based on what I've heard, MOCs get copies of my LOA from the academy. Is this true?

    LOA for the Class of 2015

    When I got home from school I went on DoDMEB and found, "SubAgency: NALOA." :biggrin: It's only been ten days since my CIS was completed so this was pleasantly surprising. And now the nomination...it's the only thing standing between me and Annapolis. Washington 5th District

    How many times are too many times to take SATs?

    Congratulations to your daughter!! :thumb: About how long was the wait before she actually got the LOA and when the ACT scores were updated to the CIS? And is the score of 32 the composite or the avg. for just the Math and English? I was told that for the ACT the two scores that really mattered...

    is my application done?

    So would this mean that for candidates who completed the application recently still have a long time to wait before they are notified? I'm usually very patient, but this is one thing that I can't take my mind off of. I must say, this is going to be a very anxious, suspenseful experience for me...

    How many application so far ?

    It's quite scary to think about...service academies are becoming much more competitive than ever before.

    CIS & DoDMERB sites down?

    I am still unable to access these sites. :frown: This is the message I get when I try to open the page: This webpage is not available. The webpage at https://dodmerb.tricare.osd.mil/default.asp might be temporarily down or it may have moved permanently to a new web address. Any techies...

    CIS & DoDMERB sites down?

    For the past several days, I haven't been able to access the CIS nor the DoDMERB pages. Can anyone confirm the server statuses for these two sites? :confused:

    Transcript

    Thank you. :smile: I'll be asking my counselor tomorrow to have her send my transcript. Hopefully it gets into the system soon because I've had all other parts completed for some time now. :frown:

    Transcript

    Ohhh. I didn't realize it had to be sent from school. The office lady at my school told me I had to send it myself :P So if a school counselor has to send the transcript, is it not a hard copy??

    Transcript

    I sent my official high school transcript last Tuesday, and it has not been updated into the CIS. Does it normally take this long for it to be processed by the Admissions Office? Should I send another transcript just in case they did not receive it? Or am I just being impatient?:confused...

    When do LOA's stop going out?

    So would these appointments be considered somewhat like LOA's?

    When do LOA's stop going out?

    Like the thread title says, when do they stop handing out LOA's? And another question; how early are appointments given to candidates with completed applications (but without LOA)? And one last question (actually two more) :redface: : how long does it usually take for the office of admissions...

    Race/Ethnicity and Admission

    How big of a roll does race/ethnicity play in the admission process? What is the difference between an African-American applicant, a White applicant, and an Asian applicant?

    Admissions Board Process

    I think LOA can be given out at any time. My older brother received LOA in October last year (the 23rd to be exact).
