    Hi all- My D got a letter today from USNA and though unfortunately it was not one of the coveted LOA's it did tell her she was "scholastically qualified". I'm just wondering if this is a general letter that is sent out to candidates once they receive all their information. We have had one...

    A visit to the Naval Academy

    My D and I just returned from 2 days in Annapolis, the primary reason of which was to visit the USNA. As she is is applying and it is so high on her list I wanted to her to see it if we had the opportunity and we did. There is nothing like actually BEING there. We even got to meet with the...

    meds for headaches

    I can guess at pieces of this answer but would like anyone with experience to comment. My daughter is starting the application process and she has had some headaches in the past. Topamax controls them and they do NOT interfere with her day to day routine. I can guess that this would DQ her in...
