My DS just received his 2nd nomination. I think I’m more excited than he is. Does having more than one nomination really increase the chances of getting an appointment?
If he is 3Q, then more nominations does increase his chance of getting an appointment. He has more opportunities to win a slate, and the USAFA has more flexibility assigning an appointment.
Yes, No, Maybe is probably a better answer.
Yes: You do get to compete on two different slates.
No: Multiple nominations do not increase the the strength of your application.
Maybe: It depends on the overall strength of the slates you are nominated on.
