USMA Class of 2024 Appointment Thread

Some users (including myself) added ourselves to the list before the forum page updated with new posts. This meant there were multiple lists, some of which didn't include all the names. The most recent one looks accurate to my knowledge.
 
I actually see a duplicate (same name listed twice). I'll fix it now.

It took the bold away though when I copied. Not sure if that is important or not.

It’s y’all’s forum but I thought the LOE info, if used by Admissions as a tool, is useful information.
I wholeheartedly agree with you but it would appear that the LOE topic elicits far too many strong opinions. However, I sure did see a lot of LOE's (for being "meaningless") in the list above before they were removed.
 
In my opinion, I think the MODERATORS need to step in right now and intervene.

Whoever removed the LOE's are trespassing on the "original post" persons who all indicated that they (or their DS or DD) received an LOA or LOE or none received.

Removing LOE and replacing with NO LOA is wrong!

When I researched the previous year's Class Appointment Threads, the number of LOA, and LOE, and none received were VALUABLE information to me.

(This forum is really getting out of hand)... in my opinion.
 
LOEs are useful information solely based on the fact that not everyone gets them. I don't see a point in removing them. It doesn't allow us to hypothesize about whether or not they make an impact on your chances of being admitted. Whether or not we should be hypothesizing at all is an entirely different question. However, I think the data is still useful, especially considering that this forum garners an alright sample size.
 
If an appointee opts to not indicate that they received an LOE ... it is solely up to the APPOINTEE to make that decision.

Others should not be messing with the original appointee's decision to put their LOE tag.

My post has nothing to do with the "effectiveness" or the lack thereof... of an LOE.
 
It appears that we now have at least one appointment for the class of 2024, so it seems appropriate to add the self-reporting appointment thread.

HOW TO ADD A NAME: This is self-reporting, self-updating and DIY. Mods don't update the list (kindly posters occasionally do, but the burden falls on posters). Please copy the most recent list, paste into new post, add a number, enter your information in a similar format, post.

FORMAT:
xxnumber) SAF forum name / Self, DD, DS / LOA or No LOA / Date Notified of Appointment / Accepted, Declined, or Undecided / State / Nomination Source(s) / Direct Appointment, Prep School, College Re-Applicant, Etc. (items that are perennial topics)

SAMPLE:
1) GoArmy2024 / Self / LOA / 24-Oct-2018 / Accepted / NY / Congressional, Senatorial / Direct Appointment

I believe we are getting away from the original point of this thread and perhaps should refer back to the requested format for this post.

Congratulations to all USMA 2024 Appointments!

Whoever initiated the original Appt. Thread is NOT a Moderator.

Go look at ALL the previous USMA Class of " ____ " Appointments... they ALL have LOA or LOE, or none.

Again, no one should be editing other people's posts... that is all's I'm saying.
 
Hate to go 'Full Professor' on the creator of the graph, which is a great initiative. It might be more useful if each state was mentioned once on the x-axis and the bars were three colors for 'LOA' 'LOE' or 'Neither'--so that people could track the number of appointments from their state in total.

Also, there are some states that may never be represented in SAF's self-report format. Some states will only welcome 1 or 2 new cadets a year. For #3's R-Day as we wended our way through the long line and finally approached Ike Hall, there was a map posted of the US with a yellow dot on the hometown of each member of the class. Some states (ND or SD) had a single dot, whereas parts of California, Texas, and the entire MD/DC/VA area were blobs of yellow. (I took a picture of that map. If I find it, I will post it.) In the end, it does not matter what lead to the appointment but rather that an appointment was given and accepted.

As with EVERYTHING in this forum, these are NOT official stats. We're all aware this forum is not utilized by ALL candidates or eventual appointees, but if someone reading this is NOT aware of that please make that note. Only those who are on the forum can present their data and all of that is not fully recorded (as can be seen by one member putting "??" in their state. If you don't like my graphs please feel free to not view them.
