Class of 2017 Mailbox Stalkers Club

Nope!

My parents saw the portal when I clicked "Accept" and like others have said, didn't know what they were looking at :wink: Although they have supported me through everything, my education and USAFA have always been "my thing." I've always chosen my own class schedule, scheduled interviews, etc. The most involved they were in the application process was driving me 3 hours to my MOC interviews because they were curious! :biggrin:
 
Is it just me or does it seem like a lot of people have received appointments/calls today? Making me anxious!
 
Abigail, me too :)

Yes indeed, I was all content to wait for Monday to restart the vigilance of waiting, and here are a bunch of appointments already! Back to pursuing peace. Congrats to all!!!!
 
Remember that not all Appointees receive a phone call. Their first indication is a change in the portal a week after the MOCs are notified. The Appointees finding out today may have gotten THE phone call. Hang in there. Many of us are pulling for you. :thumb:
 
We were just told that we (preppies) won't be finding out until May. Congrats! :smile:

Surprised to hear Preppie appointments won't be announced until May. If a Preppie decides to decline the appointment, doesn't leave much time to to appoint another candidate.

Hang in there LFry. Falcons didn't hear last year until May 1. Continue to excel there and I hope soon you will be heading up the hill.
 
Someone from my MOC's office called today. It turned out they wanted to ask if I was in town on spring break this entire week. I practically had a heart attack when I heard who was on the phone. Back to waiting, I guess.
 
There has to be a reason...

Hi Knittle! I'm sure there has to be a reason behind why they called! :thumb: I am hoping it's a good sign for you!!
 
Received my appointment today, but still went to check the mail. This habit may be hard to break...

Can't think of why a preppie would decline an appointment:confused:
Why would you spend a semester at a prep school and wait a year for an appointment and then turn it down?
Although, a couple of preppies out-processed from my C4C's squad after 1st semester:frown:
 
Hey guys, according to some of the other appointees and my Congressman's office, some of the appointment letters will be sent out on March 18th. Good luck to everyone!
 
Hey guys, I found out I received an appointment tonight, got the call from my senator. My portal is unchanged and nothing in the mail! So put your head up and realize that that call could come any time, before you know it, a restricted number might just notify you when you're having a bad day :shake:

Happens more often than you would think mostly with football & basketball players who are still being viewed/recruited by other colleges while they are at prep School. Just really surprised why Preppie Appointments wait until May unless they are using this extra time to confirm that all appointments offered will be accepted...that would make the extra time well spent.
 
Phone Stalking Over!

The phone stalking is done for me :)
Mailbox and email is not quite over though...
 
I've heard that some of the nominating sources will let us know if we receive an appointment, but I was nominated by Sen. Webb (VA) who left office. Is there a chance that I could still hear from a Senator?
 
dj_dagger...

My senator also left office before my appointment, but I heard from her successor. It can happen!
 
This thread has gotten quiet in the past few days... Don't lose hope! It's not over until the fat lady sings, and she hasn't even begun to warm up yet!
