This is absolutely a "call admissions" event.

Do you have EVERYTHING (including medical) done already? Where are you on nominations?
 
If that was a mistake, it's pretty unfortunate to say the least. Hoo boy.
 
Ok I contacted my BGO and his portal is still reading LOA. I'm guessing it's just a glitch in my CIS portal.
Happy Dance at LOA tempo authorized. Once you complete conditions and see 🤞offer of appointment, full Happy Dance at dervish-pace authorized.
 
Wow congrats!! looks like your are the first one received LOA from USNA for the CO '29 this year?

Daughter's early LOA (snail mail) was conditional upon completion of all other requirements. Medical DQ and letter from USNA rescinding LOA. Medical appeal processes successful and fulfilled all conditions for appointment. Sempre Fi🇺🇲

No I am not, I am a National Merit Semifinalist though and that might have something to do with it because my status went to LOA the day they released the NMS list.
I doubt it had anything to do with National Merit, and more to do with your academic excellence that led to you receiving Semifinalist recognition. Obviously I don't have inside access to USNA admissions processes, but my USMA RC told me in person while on a tour that I had a LOA. My portal didn't update to show my LOA until 2 weeks after that. They probably don't update things that fast.

Also congrats on National Merit and LOA!
Go get that nom
 
How far are you into your application? Did you complete your BGO interview? Completed all SOE requirements?
 
Just offering my son’s anecdotal experience. Hopefully it will help avoid stress for future candidates reading this thread worrying about LOAs.

My son got an LOA later in December. He needed a waiver. He called admissions in January and was asking them questions about the waiver process.

She couldn’t tell him anything, but she said she would check his file. She told him he got an early LOA. He said he got it December so it wasn’t early. She laughed and said an early LOA isn’t based on the calendar.

She said it is based on the reason for the LOA. The early LOAs are based on the record. And are issued early after certain aspects have been completed. I don’t what checkmarks need to be done to get an LOA. My son submitted the last item in December.

After reading someone else’s discussions on here, I assume it is based on the WPS. I also assume the other LOAs are based on the needs of the navy at various times as they are putting the pieces together.

1. Don’t worry about LOAs. 90% of the candidates don’t get them. And once inducted, everyone starts equally. Nobody discusses LOAs at the Academy.

2. Don’t compare your stats with someone else that got them. You don’t know why they got it.

3. Don’t try to read tea leaves. You don’t have all of the variables.
 
Portal also changed from pending to incomplete. Will be checking with BGO tomorrow. Application complete; medically and physically qualified. Just waiting on nomination.
 
My kid got his LOA the day after Thanksgiving. Nom, BGO interview, and medical were the conditions. BGO was already done, just not in the system, he was waivered for medical.

He told all three MoC panels he had received an LOA. No joy. Did not get a single nom. Got his TWE at the great purge that year.
