After reading previous forums, it seems that you either get a nom from Kirk OR Durbin, but with Kirk out, has duckworth given any indication on how she plans to do it? In addition, how competitive is the 9th district in Illinois
 
Kirk had completed the process (although there were no interviews this year) before Duckworth took office.
 
My son got noms from Durbin and Bost (Dist 12). Does Durbin only have one spot at USNA on his slate this year?
 
NavyLion, I believe Durbin's website/paperwork said he had one vacancy at USNA but I don't have access to it right now. Congrats and good luck with the congressional nom.

Well, one of his noms was appointed. I guess that doesn't necessarily mean his spot is gone but I think it is.

Oh, and THANKS for the congrats! [emoji3]
 
NavyLion, I sent you a message -- look at the Private Conversation Inbox on the upper right.
 
Same...the waiting is agonizing and thats a kind way of saying it. Did you get any other noms beside schakowsky?

That's for sure, it's definitely getting to me. Schakowsky is my only nomination, although I did apply for Kirk and Durbin. Their rejection letters did say that they had a record number of applicants this year, though. Were you one of the recipients?
 
Ironic...we're in the same boat!! Got the same letters from them...and said exactly the same thing. I think this forum is good and bad...a lot of good information but it just raises the anxiety level with seeing everyone else get their appointments...kinda on the outside looking in. Based on all the threads I have read, pretty sure we will hear something within this next week. Crossing my fingers for both of us!!!
 
Crazy! Small world...I totally agree, this forum is great but every time I check it and see all the appointments I get nervous. This next week is gonna be nerve wrecking for sure!! Definitely hoping for the best for the both of us too. Good luck!!!
 
Please post if you hear something...my guess is we are the only ones from 09, at least the only ones on this forum.
 
Will do, you too. I know we're kind of a small district so it's possible we're the only ones.
 
Could be...so many unknowns and it's frustrating. I found it odd that there wasn't an interview for Schakowsky...seems like most every MOC holds an interview.
 
Yeah, in comparison to the other MOCs it seems like Schakowsky's application was pretty straightforward. No interview and some simple forms to fill out. Sent it in and heard nothing, then out of nowhere I saw on my portal that I got the nom.

I wish I could find out if she calls you if you get an appointment, every phone call I get, I get excited...
