Replying to this thread everyday until an appointment/rejection

Looks like you will! She came in from work (she had called me and told me) smiling and bouncing with excitement and her plans. I didn’t cry in front of her, but I couldn’t stop crying. I wanted her to stay close by so I could still see her for lunch or dinner. She is my oldest child, so it is a struggle right now. I have no idea about any of the things that need to be done or when things are supposed to happen so please feel free to message me and keep in contact. I need all the help. 🤪

This made me smile, inside and out.

I'm going to get my body comp form done tomorrow, sucks that my school nurse couldn't do it! A little bit worried, cause that's what I'm used to now haha. Hopefully it goes well. Until the full appointment comes through, I'm still here! :D

You can tape yourself to get an estimate...if it's not even close to failing then no need to worry for official tape test

I don’t have a tape and used a long charging cable. 😓😓 it’s fair to say it was not accurate at all, in 5 attempts I had 2 that had me below 20% 2 above 25% and 1 at 22-23 😭😭. Two of my “smart” scales places me between 18-22 so it’s ok! Will keep all of you in the loop 😁😁
 
Good Morning Day 53. so close yet so far away ....Still pending. going into the weekend with family visits. Congrats on all the good news for those who are getting LOAs, Appointments, scholarships, College choices. Crossing fingers for good news, went to another Graduation meeting at DS school super large class!! I learned they announce the students with appointments at Graduation .....not sure how I feel about that knowing someone may have gotten turned down. I would think its a soft spot?? What do you think ?

I think that’s a moment for your DS. It is about what they have accomplished (a phenomenal one BTW) not about another student.

You are worried about hurt feelings? I mean, one of the students in my DS's class was recently admitted to Harvard. Should the school not announce that at graduation, just because some other kids in the class may also have wanted to go to Harvard but didn't get admitted?

My question is, from the : "things you don't know, until you do file", if you're given a Foundation Scholarship, does that lock you into that specific SA? It seems it would, or should.

I’m pretty sure it does. Cuz if u leave I’m pretty sure u have to pay back the money. Not 100% sure tho

Good morning Day 53! Still frozen on our end. I do wonder when will the class be full for SAs and Preps? Is it exactly on April 15? Post April 15 appointments are for unicorns / pure destiny?

It’s right around then. Usually NAPS and Foundation will round out the class. They get their appointments fairly late, but they know their destiny. They also know what they have to do to get that appointment. So there could be some cutting it close or under review who get them late April even early May. For the rest of the class, really mid April. It does seem like it’s slightly slower this year, but USNA has not said yet it will be beyond 4/15. At some point we will also see the wait list come out in early-mid April. If USNA’s yield drops below a certain number, then the wait list comes into play. As the last spots firm up with waivers, even late injuries, late declines, you will see the wait list cut down in phases. So throws unicorns or onesie and twosie appts really come from the wait list.
