So fun 🤩! What a great birthday 🥳 present!

The Navy is the same way. Housing $$ comes about 90 days after the start of the semester (his tuition is covered). We bankrolled him the first few years. Now, as a Junior, we request that he save enough to get himself until the bag of $ drops. It’s each semester. Of course, we’ll bankroll...

I’m in now 😊!

Thank you for the reminder! It’s a tricky balance.

Thanks! I’ve found the pages, but not getting accepted into the official one. Hopefully it will happen in the next few days!

Thank you! I’ll give it a few more days 😊.

How long did it take to accept the FB request? I’ve requested, answered all questions but still not able to join the group 🤷🏻‍♀️….

I’m sorry to hear about your TD. My DS was in your shoes in 2021. It’s stinks. But! Don’t give up! So many stories of kids starting off as College Programmers & earning 3 year sideloads (including my kid!). He’s headed back to Japan for summer training for the 2nd year. There will be...

Same 😂😂! Plus his picture was pretty bad (hair was a hot mess) but he needs to do this on his own so I had to let it go. I was like: you know you have this passport for 10 years, right? Why didn’t fix your hair first? 😵‍💫😳

Great point re: wisdom teeth! He had to have his out a few years ago - thankfully. Good luck 🍀 if you guys have to do that! It went fine but definitely adds one more thing to the to-do list….

Hello! Congratulations 🎉! Re: the FB page. I joined one but I’m not sure it’s the correct one. @Professor44 - do you know the name? I joined one called: USMMA Class of 2028 Parents (Safe Space) (Unofficial). Is there a different one? I’d love to join the one that offers Sunday calls 😉...

I know it doesn’t feel like it right now, but amazing things are in store for you. I’m old, really old & there have been several times in my life where I just didn’t get why things happened the way they did. Yes, they are still in the back of my mind - but then eventually everything becomes...

This! I know it’s really semantics but I disliked calling it “Plan B” - like it was somehow inferior. Based on his experience & what was best for him, it was Plan A.2. You all are amazing 🤩 - and have been thru so much just getting to this point. I know it’s hard but one decision doesn’t...

DS #1 received TD on Apr 28 in 2021 (a mass purge day). Feeling your pain as it looks like it could be Apr 26 for some folks…. He was ok - had his Plan A.2 queued up & ready to go. He was getting excited about it. Saw the TD, said: “Welp, guess it wasn’t meant to be” & closed that chapter...

What year are you? I only ask because both of my sons used Accutane prior to applying & both were DoDMERB qualified. DS #1 was finished his senior year so he did need to supply some AMI (including his last blood work up) & DS #2 had finished years before applying. He listed it on his DoDMERB...

I’m really not invested enough to dig this deep into the tea leaves 😊. There’s enough an applicant can do between a NASS/STEM turn down and their application to increase their odds of acceptance/change the trajectory….as well as not every NASS/STEM participant will earn an appointment. As you...

And vice versa 😉! DS went to STEM but didn’t get an appointment (it’s ok - he ended up where he was supposed to be!).

They did! Thank you 😊!

Facts! I don’t even try anymore because it’s hard to do it in less than a few sentences & I’ve lost them at that point 😂.

Thank you for giving it a try! I’ll send the message now…
