My DD is in the same pickle. She wants to be a nurse and has been accepted to prep school. Her thought is to major in Life Science and then go to grad school on the path to becoming a PA. I tell her to keep an open mind and not be focused on one thing until her junior year. Being young, there...

Down for us as well. Damn them for making us jump to the conclusion that they've brought it down because they're bulk-loading appointments! ;)

Thank you, @agmp183, for the reassurance. I think we'll all be so relieved when the waiting ends. :)

Our DS is a second-year applicant attending one of the five self-prep junior colleges this year. He's doing very well in the SAP (Service Academy program) and holds all A's in his STEM classes, which are incredibly hard. I'm not exaggerating when I say that he studies 20 hours a week in...

My DS is in the same boat. Now we wait... Everything that we've read says that the NWL is a very good thing.

I think you have plenty of time to fill in the gaps. You've got some great suggestions in this thread. As it's been said before, this is a marathon, not a sprint, so start working on what's lacking, and you'll be there in no time! GL to you!

Congratulations! :)

Looks like it's some major networking issue. I can access it from my phone (off my wifi) or through a VPN. It could be part of the AT&T outage yesterday mentioned above.

My son said that the portal has been down since yesterday. Is there an extended maintenance going on right now?

When our DS was put on the NWL earlier this month, I talked to a friend who used to work at USMA and told me that being on the NWL is very good. I was initially thinking what @michellek39 was thinking. We all felt discouraged until reading more about it (thank you, @MrMe), but now we're just...

Congratulations! That's incredible news!

I apologize; I just saw this. She had logged into her portal and it was waiting there. She didn't receive an email like our DS did last year, so I would say check daily.

Don't worry, Wooda... Our DS is in the same boat as you. He's been done since mid-November, but his nominations came in at the end of Christmas. T-37IP is right...they are swamped but moving forward. Our understanding is that the application deadline is for you, not for them. So having all...

Thank you for clarifying this! Our DS has been keeping them up-to-date, but I think he feels like he's bothering them unnecessarily because of some of the responses he's received back from them. I think he's just gotten used to how WP responds when he provides them updates. Although USMA is...

What's the difference between the two groups? Our DS thought one was for college applicants and another for high school. Is it a way to break up so many applications into something more manageable?

You can also call and leave a message. I know our DS has had questions and he'd call and have to leave a message. It might be a few days, but they should call you back.

I think your best bet is to email whatever team you are under. Our DS is Team_Blue. They should be able to tell you precisely what you're missing if anything. GL!

Our DS had the same. It's a simple form to print, sign and submit back to DoDMERB. I think you have to get it from the DoDMERB people. He also had to create an account, even though he had one from last year. I guess they renew each year.
