He earned the right to take some time and decide what path he chooses to take. I personally wish he hit the accept button, but you and I don’t get to make his choice. I’ll keep you posted. Go Navy

Everyone has an ego, and that’s not a bad thing. Ivie’s are selling themselves. Head of admissions sends a note, Commander of cadre emails and current mids send texts. No call from MOC or note from area BGO. Hopefully both get in touch soon. They are trying to sway him to NROTC. Unlike you with...

Yes. Changed to CPR on Wednesday morning

The Portal updated at Midnight last night: Fully Qualified Offer of Appointment !! Revisiting one of the 3 big Ivies today with an NROTC Scholarship offer. DS is on the fence. I’m still rooting for USNA (and trying to keep my mouth shut) but I think the allure of the Ivies may win out. Believe...

Still in CPR … Now at 60:10 Hopefully good news in 11:50 . Makers Mark will help me sleep well tonight… Hoping for good news to all our hopeful mids who want to serve! 🙏🇺🇸🤞

They’re at 49:15, but who’s counting?? 🤣🤣🤣

Portal changed from Pending to CPR two days ago. No change since. No email. No contact from MOC. Could this change in status be another “miserable fail” on the USNA’s admissions office? I certainly hope not, but I am starting to wonder…. I really respect and admire that so many on this forum...

@blinkus You’re going to need a refresher course in Math and English before classes begin at USNA!! 🤣🤣🤣🇺🇸

At 8am this morning

QUESTION: My wife says that any upperclassmen can knock on a plebe’s door and demand an inspection of the room at any time. I do believe this was the norm 35 years ago when she attended an Academy but I think it’s not how things are today. Can someone shed some light on this spousal...

And it is cool!! Go Navy Congratulations 🍾 🇺🇸🇺🇸

Did Ivy day come early for some mids. I see Yale and Duke posts yesterday and today? Congratulations

Love all the positivity but sometimes I think DS is in Purgatory, not Pending! 🤣🇺🇸

Good morning to all. I just want to tip my hat to anyone who’s going through this a second time. The wait is tough. I admire your determination! And as a side note: What’s up with the kitten eating a strawberry @blinkus? I understand the military isn’t the Third Army that my father served in...

Yearly Costco membership is paid for in savings on milk alone….. The quality of the steak 🥩 is superb. No better place to purchase Tide detergent and Bleach. I’m retired law enforcement (not looking for employment) but I hear that the employee benefits are great. It’s probably why their...

Thanks for the input. I am staying positive about USNA! Just made another reservation for Labor Day weekend with the intention of spying out my boy at the Navy Football game. If and when he gets the appointment, I’ll purchase season tickets!

The Waiting & Speculating has now taken a turn for the worse in my opinion. DS is thinking that USNA just isn’t that into him. He believes (as do I) that he’s a very strong candidate, but must be lacking something the Navy desires. There are NROTC Commands that are still communicating with him...

Black 47 was an Irish American Rock band named after the Great Famine in Ireland 🇮🇪. May Day 47 bring everyone the Luck of the Irish and end the Appointment Famine! ☘️🇮🇪🇺🇸

At least NEWSMAX covered the story. It appears CNN didn’t even find it newsworthy. I couldn’t find anything about it on the CNN news feed. p.s. I am not a CNN or MSNBC fan 🤣

I know graduates from 20 years ago from SUNY Maritime & Kings Point that made double the median salaries quoted. They are great schools! Good Luck to everyone!
