USNA Class of 2027 Waiting and Speculating

There is no longer a need / option to withdraw if you have been removed from consideration.

Common sense 101.

I feel everyone's pain.

It isn’t really common sense for the admissions of the USNA though. To have a button that means withdraw application and “withdraw appointment” so hundreds of applicants are notified by the removal of a button. I would venture to guess the past classes didn’t get notified through the removal or a button and it would be fairly obvious for everyone once that took place.

But maybe you’re right. In which case we will let other classes know to be prepared for that news in such a manner.

Again, you cannot withdraw if a decision has been made and you are no longer considered. When it's over, there's nothing to withdraw from.

You don't withdraw an appointment; you decline one.

Again so you’d be notified by the removal of a button.

The withdraw option is simply “stop, I want to get off the train and not continue the application.”

Disappearance of this option is the harbinger of decisions to come, ranging along the continuum of options. The SalesForce database platform is rigging for the final cycle phase: decisions for each candidate, though some will not be resolved and will go into May or even June.

@Capt MJ any thoughts on the Medical section being removed? He did sign on DODMERB and it still shows qualified
 
I really think we are over-thinking this withdraw button disappearing. It may mean they have now reviewed everyone or it may mean nothing at all. But the fact that EVERYONE's button disappeared at the same time probably means it's a system issue and not indicative of anything specific to each candidate.

I asked my DD about the withdrawal button and she said, “Dad, chill out, there’s six days left.” Sometimes she’s annoyingly wiser than me. 🤪🤪

My son said the sane thing. He saw it and said it's something system related, nothing to do with appointments. We'll see I guess.

I think @Capt MJ is our best source :)
 
Wait, you all have a green qualified for medical? DS cleared DoDMERB in September before the crash and has never had that. All he has is a check next to medical. He was advised by DoDMERB that he is qualified but there's no green box like there is for CFA. Am I misunderstanding?

Speaking from the perspective of a third time applicant, it's simply not worth overthinking the withdraw button. This process is stressful enough as it is and speculating that the removal of the button means people will not receive positive news is unnecessary additional stress, particularly for those who are new to the process. I know everyone is at the point where we're all looking for clues, but I think taking this kind of attitude is the wrong approach. USNA has made it clear that 4/15 is the day we should expect decisions. Until then, it's pointless to add to candidates' worries, IMO.

My DD never had a green qualified box for DODMERBS, just a check and was told by DODMERBS she was qualified. Was she supposed to have a green box? Now I'm confused.
