I have posted a couple of times before - but received new information today.
We can go back to the MOCs assistant and ask - but what would you take from a conversation where the person said "you have the nomination"?
- DS applied to West Point and Navy
- Received LOA from West Point in July
- Completed full applications including DodMerb by Sept 1. Was qualified for Medical and did really well on CFA.
- Invited and attended Navy CVW
- No NAVY LOA as of yet.
- Listed West Point as #1 and Navy as #2 for MOC, and Navy as #1 and West Point at #2 for both Senators.
- Had is MOC interview on Saturday. 15 people were on list for interviews. Don't know what they applied for.
- Staff member called my DS this morning and said my DS received the West Point Nomination, Navy and Air Force (he didn't apply there). He had a great interview and the whole committee liked him.
- She was going to enter everything into the portals next Monday after Thanksgiving.
- She said she had coordinated with the Senator's office who had my DS down for Navy, so she "pulled" it back to their office so that the Senator can use his nomination for a competitive district. This is a rural district so she coordinates with the Senators to "pull back" the nom. Senator is one of the more "well-known" senators. (you can guess).
- Went to a USNA information session tonight. Seemed to get a different picture
- BG officer asked "was he primary"? "ughh, she said he had a nomination to all three academies" -- she didn't mention slates
- BG officer - "well if he is the primary for X senator than is probably a lock" - "but getting a nom from a MOC doesn't necessarily mean he will get an LOA/Appointment". Committee has to meet.
- Another BG officer - if he is listed as Primary for the MOC - that means he will get in.
