What is the address to which I send my second semester transcript? (Incoming plebe)

Just to confirm what usna1985 said, you will not be notified of their decision (at least if you pass their review). Just answer the questions they ask you honestly and try to express what you learned from the incident, etc. This was the part I was most worried about through the admissions...

1. AKH - Burke, VA, 23 September 2010 2. Future Midshipman 2015 - Anacortes, WA, 23 September 2010 3. Vignesh56 - Germantown Maryland, 24 September 2010 4. Run Faster - Atascadero, CA, 15 October 2010 5. R I- Portsmouth, RI, 30 October 2010 6. NavalAcademyCandidate -Newton, Iowa, 15...

Thanks all. I can't say how helpful this online community has been to me both times through the admissions process.

I'm sorry but I'm not going to wait until I get there to see reef points for the first time. I have plenty of time right now to learn them AND do plenty of other things. My time will be a much scarcer commodity during PS, so I might as well at least give them a look now. If your advice is...

My father told me today that there was a "letter" for me at home. When I heard letter rather than package or envelope I was half-expecting the TWE, but to my surprise it was a letter from my MOC congratulating me on getting in! I'm so excited. Not making the final cut last year makes this all...

Some of us do. I was informed by my BGO. I suppose he keeps pretty close contact with the admissions office.

Thanks, and I'm sorry, I didn't mean to be obnoxious; I was just saying I already understand the implications of a principal nom. I see now you were clearing up somebody else's confusion. Thanks again and sorry about the misunderstanding.

I understand this. My concern is that the board could find my high school suspension disqualifying, particularly they could decide it means that I am not "of good moral character", one of the basic eligibility requirements for admission to the academy.

Uh, I think those are the head people in the Candidate Guidance (Admissions) Office for each region. Their job is to handle basically everything dealing with admission. I think.

I got home from college for the weekend today and there was a small envelope here from the Navy... I knew my file wasn't supposed to go before the board until yesterday so it was unlikely that it was a decision, but still I worried it was the dreaded TWE. Opened it to find it was just an...

If your GPA is otherwise good, it's probably not going to disqualify you. You probably shouldn't have signed up for a class where you had to struggle intensely to get a C though

You're probably fine. Also you didn't really ask a question. I realize how easy it is to worry about things like this but since its one class and you've got the principle nom I don't think it would keep you out. It would be helpful to post what your college gpa turned out to be though...

Good question, unfortunately I don't have a good answer. I never had that conversation. Well, everything is reflected on the candidate file and if they need more info they've got all my contact information. I guess there's nothing I can do but take a step back and let the academy make its...

In other words, could letting my BGO in on my concerns about this help the situation at all, or would it just be bugging/burdening him unnecessarily?

This complaint is insane. These people need to stop being afraid of other people's right to practice religion, and stop trying to take that right away.

Thanks to you all for the responses. Do you think I should voice my concern about this incident to my BGO? I brought it up to him in my first BGO interview (when I was applying last year). So he knows about it, but it didn't come up this year. My packet is supposed to be reviewed thursday. My...

I'm in the same boat as you. This year I'm at Wisconsin. I'm almost certain you should finish your studies. They probably even want to see your second semester transcript after you get accepted.

According to USNA's info on validating subjects, they don't administer history validation tests but a combined score of 9 on the US History and either World or European History tests will allow you to validate history. I got a 5 on AP US but haven't taken AP Euro or World. I'd love to take...

I was told by my BGO
