My thoughts returned to this forum after not being on for some quite some time. Last year, we were glued to it...awaiting word on whether our DD would receive the deferral letter or the appointment letter. She was deferred to RA and eventually was rejected. It was an exciting... and ultimately...

What is the ONE area of the application that got one cadet rejected over another? First to level set...this is just an opinion. I am not an AAP or anyone associated with the Academy. Just an opinion from a mom whose daughter was rejected. After going through this long and difficult...

I did mean concern for my daughter in the broader realm. And, I am done with this conversation. I simply meant to be supportive to other parents whose children did get in and keep them focused on their child's achievement rather than get bogged down in a discussion such as the one that is...

Well, that was mean spirited. I don't think you really meant, as an officer in the service, that my daughter is none of your concern, did you?

Good afternoon all: I completely understand how this news might be disheartening to some. And while it might not seem fair, and perhaps, indeed is not fair, the world our children grow up in, is not fair. Our daughter did not get an Academy appointment. Like many of your sons and daughters...

And it just blows my mind how that could happen...how an applicant does not have any idea of what they are getting into....suzie70...prayers of hope to you and your family...no matter where your daughter ends up...she'll do great.

nor the other way around...my daughter had a 34 ACT...awesome leadership (ran a 501 C charity for youth)...tons of community service, top 2% of class, great recommendations but was a latecomer to sports...denied..

With the arrival of our daughter's TWE today, we move on from these forums to new horizons for her at the new Plan A school. For those of you who received appointments, we will think of you on Rday and send our thoughts and prayers. For those of you in our spot, we have great kids. They'll be...

Also received TWE today...end of one journey, start of another...best wishes to all.

Congratulations!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

very cool!

And there are still some AIM attendees who may get appointed under RA, correct?

Another option is contact an AAP (don't know what the first A stands for but believe the other two letters of the acronym stand for Admissions Partner) on this forum and see if they can get you an interview closer to home. Luigi, Boss51, Bruce Talbot are great resources to tap and always respond...

Congrats to all who have earned appointments. Unfortunately, our DD received deferral today....best wishes for a happy holiday season for all!

For those of you whose DS or DD received appointments - had you received an earlier LOA?

Amen leapyear. Our daughter sent in the last pieces of her EA this week this well. You are right, it has been a long haul. Our daughter went to AIM as well. Good luck to all and thank you to everyone on these forums for their support. As you said...now the wait begins.

So could someone explain this? If you receive a LOA and all you have to do is finish the application and pass medical...how does that turn into a Scholar's appt if you do finish the app and pass medical? Does that mean you were always going to get the CGA Scholars nod? Or is there something else...

Can someone clarify a couple of things about early admission. My daughter will be taking the ACT on Sept. 11 to try to get her math score up and this will still allow her to meet the Oct. 15 deadline...which she plans on applying with best math score no matter what. If she does not bump up...
