You will receive an offer of admission letter in the "Official Correspondance" section and new prompts will appear on the overview page of your portal.How do you tell in your portal you are being offered an appointment?
There will be a BIG PURPLE BOX that appears when you log in telling you that you have been offered an appointment. You will not miss it. Your portal updates.You will receive an offer of admission letter in the "Official Correspondance" section and new prompts will appear on the overview page of your portal.
I'm in that portion right now. Nominated by senator and I completed my app. Curious to know when I'll find out.Just out of curiosity, how long did those who have been appointed hear about their appointment after completing their entire application and receiving a nomination?
Appointments are given out from September through late spring and a few final ones after that. Some will have little time between noms and offers/notice of declination, some will have months.Just out of curiosity, how long did those who have been appointed hear about their appointment after completing their entire application and receiving a nomination?
The range of waiting time is broad and is not necessarily correlated with when you submitted your part of the application. There are several moving parts, not all under your control, e.g. MOC noms, DODMERB. The DOD SAs announce that most appointments are offered in February and March — some earlier, some later of course. So that should be your expectation. They’re putting together a puzzle and it takes time.Just out of curiosity, how long did those who have been appointed hear about their appointment after completing their entire application and receiving a nomination?
Usually about two weeks. Got appointed on the 2nd of February and received on the 29th.I received an offer of admission from West Point last Thursday. When will I receive my BFE?? I’m curious haha!
Abby and All, it depends. Appointments have been drifting out since September--but just a trickle. There is normally a big first wave in mid-late January when about 500 BFEs are sent out & folders are updated. That said, you will hear by 1 May. It is a long wait between now and then and you may hear nothing until your portal updates with the big purple box or the BFE lands on your doorstep or your Senator/Congressman calls you with the good news. Not hearing until mid-April does not mean you won't be accepted or are less likely to be accepted, it just means you are still in play while Admissions builds the perfect incoming class. So, hang in there. It is hard. Keep faith.Just out of curiosity, how long did those who have been appointed hear about their appointment after completing their entire application and receiving a nomination?
