I'm surprised that there wasn't TWE's today.
I am not from TX, however, one way to find out if your slates have been reviewed and appointments given is to search through your congressman or senator press releases. Here is one that was published by your senator Cruz very late last year - May 31, 2016. https://www.cruz.senate.gov/?p=press_release&id=2655Oh thank you....maybe our Slates have not been decided yet?Do you think if a candidate was not 3Q in say academics (worried low SAT's) that they would be TWE'd by now? DS is the primary nom for district. Lots of leadership and good grades in AP classes, but still CPR. I am trying to stay positive, but looking at last years thread.....few appt this late. Who else is CPR in Texas?
I know of three CPR candidates in Texas at my school alone.
Hoping for the best while forging ahead with Plan B is certainly wrought with anxiety! We are still holding out hope for good news!! Keeping the faith to all here!!
Thanks! You too!!we are district 8...wishing you the best!!!
@WonderGirl1965, not blowing smoke, but judging by your comments you do have the right attitude even when the situation is out of your control. So much others can learn from. Best wishes to you and your DD!We are each dealing with this and some are glass half full while others are glass half empty. I'm a half full person. I still believe CPR is a great place to be instead the TWE folks. I want my DD to get an appointment but I also am sincerely hoping all of my SAF people do too! You have to be in it to win it! And if you are still CPR then you are still in it! Please give yourself some credit and some optimism. You've come this far, soooo much farther than most. And really? If this is stressful, imagine the anxiety you'll experience leading up to I Day?!!! I hope to be able to have to deal with that stress next!
It sounds as if the person you spoke with in the MOC's office is misinformed. USNA always notifies the nominating MOC about a week before they post the appointment in the candidate's portal. It is up to each MOC to decide if they take advantage of this opportunity to call the candidate personally and inform them of their appointment. This is a long-standing tradition. My son's MOC called him, and his portal was updated 6 days later. However, it seems many MOCs choose not to call appointees.Ok I finally got the nerve to call his MOC office, and they said with the USNA, they don't find out about appointments till after the student is notified. They informed me that usually the students are calling them to verify if portal info is correct. They did inform DS is still principle nom, so........we wait.......ughhh!!!!
