I-DAY Last year we stayed at Two-o-one BB. It is located between Gates 1 and 3. The owner has a private parking lot and let us park early on I-day. We also stayed there on Parents weekend. I know they have a website with pictures.

A gift card to Victoria Secrets is a great gift for girls. After plebe summer they can wear anything under the uniform. When we went to the mall all the plebes in VS.

Summer Seminar I must agree. My daughter attended SS a few years ago and had a roomate from the west coast. At the end of summer seminar she was one of 3 out of 600 recognized for her accomplishments at the SS. My daughter stayed in contact with her during their H.S. senior year. She applied...

My daughter has an appointment to Navy and WP. The navy one came through last week. Now she must decide. She has visited WP and will be visiting Navy soon. As parents we are not pushing she one way but making sure she knows everything before she sends in the cards. Her biggest reason for Navy...

eye My daughter had the same thing. She was 20/25 in both eyes and her refraction was -7. WP requested the retest and was used for Navy as well. If you decide to do the test on your own make sure you do not wear your contacts for 3 days prior. I can not say if you do the retest on your own it...

C. has a LOA and two nominations for Navy. She has the same for WP but Navy is her first choice. Unforunately, because of her eye sight she is DQ'd for both. WP has requested additional testing thru DOdmerb. My question is how do we know if Navy is going to persue a waiver or will not accept...

She received the letter from our MOC today with a nomination for Navy and WP. WP posted her nomination the day before Xmas, but Navy's was not. She was afraid she would not get two, but she has LOA's from both. The LOA for Navy came a week after her interview with the MOC committee, so she...

Use Baron's I agree with using the Baron's for SAT's. My daughter took a prep class and scored OK on her first test, but she was not happy. Her class standing is high and all her friends are competative with grades. The OK score was low relative to her friends. She took it again in March last...

Score Yes about the scores. My daughter had her nomination interview last night with our congressman's committee and they did not have the lastest SAT scores that she took early November. She did bring it with her but she was not allowed to bring anything into the meeting. Since she had an LOA...

My daughter's first choice was Navy, but she has received a LOA from WP and visited the school. We have not been in contact with NA (she did attend the summer seminar)but she has a DQ because her myopia is over the limit. She has been to two senator nomination meetings and soon she will see the...

My daughter is appling to the USNA and USMA. We were all for navy since the summer seminar (and I grew up in Baltimore), but when West Point called and sent her a LOA she is now hoping for USMA. She is apply for NROTC and does have a backup college if things do not work out. This forum is...
