Mr. Ohio, my deepest sympathies to you and your family.
Hmm...this is odd. I called my the AROTC department at my top (and only) choice school, and was told that they were almost certain they had not sent out their offers yet. I didn't list any other schools, so it's odd that they wouldn't know what's going on. Then again, they appear to be in the dark just as much as we are these days.
DS status changed! Hooray! Sent an e-mail to #1 school to try to find out if that school will be a choice.
28 ACT
4 yr. Varsity Football
3 yr. Varsity Tract (Captain 1)
Sea Cadets 4 years
LPO Sea Cadets
Hundreds of hours of Community Service
NHS
4 years robotics (Captain all 4)
INTEL Science Fair Finalist
Lifeguard
Good luck everyone! These are all great kids and, in the end, I have no doubt that they will get to where they want to go.
Oh geez. Looks like the CC website appears to have crashed. Hmmmmm . . . maybe I shouldn't have refreshed my screen so often!!
I think we crashed the server, folks. Ugh.
Wow, it says network error! I would get there after it crashes!
Not all schools have been notified yet. I was told this morning that my DS's #1 school had not yet been notified, so I wasn't able to find out whether my DS got the nod from CC. Hang tight.
I was told that the number of awards is 90% lower (yes, 90%!!) than last year's January board (idea being that the remaining folks would find out after March board). Whether these remaining 90% will be picked up, however, depends entirely on the budget.
Yep, gateway error message..we killed CC by overloading requests. Too many times checking!
Hope they don't have to use the "contractors" responsible for DodMERB's computers....its been down for weeks.
sorry moderators if that's pushing the line.......
If these numbers are correct there are going to be either a large number of offers on the March board or they will be drastically cutting back from thier projected numbers.
I came to late to the web sites today
When I go to check my DS status I get;
"Network Error (gateway_error)
An error occurred attempting to communicate with an HTTP or SOCKS gateway.
The gateway may be temporarily unavailable, or there could be a network problem.
For assistance, contact your network support team."
....So close to finding out
DoDMERB has been down since January 18th. I think their five week anniversary of working feverishly on the problem was yesterday.Hope they don't have to use the "contractors" responsible for DodMERB's computers....its been down for weeks.
