Received my ECandidate Packet over email today. Take two here we go! If any first-time applicants have questions I'd love to help you.

I was accepted into NASS (which from what I know also serves as the preliminary application) and was wondering when to expect the ECandidate Packet email. Thanks!

It will contain links for you to send all necessary information to Admissions. It also will show you what nominations you have, who your BGO and admissions counselor is. You will have to fill out the personal data record and activities record. Then it will have spots for you to request recommendations from your math and English teacher, a candidate academic profile (completed by a school official), CFA, and you will also request activities info from your guidance counselor. It also will show if your transcripts have been received as well as ACT/SAT scores.
 
I believe for first time applicants you won’t get your access and candidate number for several weeks. If memory serves early to mid-June possibly. Joe is a reapplicant so I believe he may have gotten earlier access. Joe, good luck. Keep us updated!

I got mine around this time last year as well. I think it might depend on when you get your preliminary app in. I know another candidate who is a first try this year and she got hers today as well.
 
Are all of them sent at once or throughout the day for everyone? I haven’t received mine. Should I be worried? 2nd time reapplicant as well

I'm sure that they are spread out throughout the coming weeks. I wouldn't be too worried if you are a second-time applicant you obviously have the qualifications to be a candidate.
 
Hang in there, they will all come. And remember to mentally prepare to hear in mid-April. First in does not mean first reviewed. I had a candidate who finished their application in early August. He had one of the strongest apps I have seen with LOAs to 2 other SAs and an appointment to a 4th. He didn’t get his appointment until late March. For re-applicants... remember you won’t be reviewed until first semester grades come out. Live the college life some then come back to your essays. You have some incredible months of growth coming your way. Good luck to all.

Thanks for the advice and reassurance.
 
Hi, haven’t been on in awhile, glad you are reapplying!! Did you have to start a new preliminary application? Good luck !!
 
Once I submit my activities information, will I be able to go back and change anything if I get moved up to a varsity sport, or if I move into a new club leadership position?
