I'm waiting here as well, checking my portal daily.
I am curious to hear from any other candidates or appointees! What are you looking forward to (or dreading) most about KP? What is your story? Did anyone else do an overnight visit?
I know for me personally, I want to get out to Sea Year and sail! But I also look forward to IDOC and a year of maritime academics before that.
PM me if you are interested to chat more to get to know what the C/o 2027 might look like.

Is anyone else having trouble accessing their Admissions Portal? Yesterday my status was "Under Review" and now I cannot open it at all. 😬

My daughter enjoyed her overnight visit this past weekend. The young men and women she met were really honest about their experience to date, which my daughter appreciated. It's not going to be easy, but there's a ton of support! I can't wait for you all (my daughter included) to get your appointments! :)

My son is a plebe now. It is not going to be easy but the people are just wonderful there and a lot of academic support has been provided to him. He likes USMMA very much.

I am glad this problem is not isolated to my application, and I hope it means lots of offers too!
@hopefulmominva I really enjoyed my overnight visit too, and I've been emailing all year with my Plebe host with updates and questions about his experience.

Just remember, getting in is the "easy" part. There are lots of pressures that make getting through the program challenging.

My portal has been updated to under review. The only thing left that needs to be done is the spring semester transcript, but I still haven't seen the spring courses in progress piece updated even though I sent the transcript to my admissions officer since he asked for it directly. My admissions officer is also recommending me to try another ACT as my old one has reached the 3-year expiration date (a 31 gone 😭), and the one I just recently took was not at a score I wanted. The nerves are kicking in, and I really really hope I things work out.

Trending lower than last year... by this time last year 16 people had reported appointments, not that this board is an exact science, but it's been my experience that the trends have typically stood up over time. So perhaps KP is a bit behind in issuing appointments.
