I agree!:) I love and highly recommend the Inn at Great Neck! Well run and staffed and there’s love there and customer service! We stayed there in March for my DS’s overnight and tour and briefing!

Before I bother the USMMA folks and because I’m not a patient person when it comes to planning travel, has anyone gotten any information concerning the July 5th Indoctrination Day? Was gonna book a VBRO but maybe there’s a hotel block(s) or maybe things happen around the date that I need to be...

Hope everyone is doing well! Just wanted to let y’all know that your answer might just arrive via fed ex with no portal change. My DS is under review but we got his formal and very beautiful appointment package in the fed ex this afternoon! He’s accepted and will be joining the USMMA class of...

Shoot shoot shoot!:) You are an exceptional candidate and I know you’ll serve this country proudly and distinctively as an officer! Good luck at NROTC and college next year and on your re-application; you won’t need it because you have such the right attitude and work ethic!

Congratulations!!!:) Here’s the upcoming USMMA school calendar! There isn’t much time as they have the trimester plan and go to school all year. I personally wish all schools from k and up did this:)!

My DS was TD in VA-10 with Wexton and an NROTC nom; college re-applicant! I’m pulling for you as a local favorite! My kids all go to Dominion; I’m sure you are close by!! Wishing you the best of luck!!:)

Still under review; I know USNA just sent out a bunch of TD’s which is tragic but at least the whole thing will move (so many of those fabulous young people are taking it so well and moving right along to awesome plan Bs)! There are still so many stranded in Pending purgatory for USNA and I’m...

Congratulations!!!:) It’s because you asked nicely!! Good luck!

This young person should be leading the Navy!:) Extremely well said Egag!! I hope Admissions does check this place out and can decipher your tag and appoint you immediately! You’ve got it all right! Good luck but you don’t need it!!!:) I’m now 100% pulling for you since Blinkus got in!

I gotta give the flip perspective! I wish yall still here pending and still have a shot at it, all the luck in the world, however what’s worse is what so many of us on here have gone through, either ourselves or our DS or DD. Multiple years of effort and work and dreaming and hoping and working...

Hi everyone!:) Thank for starting this thread! So I talked to my DS’s AO a few days ago (called early am!) and decisions should be out by May 1. As USNA is behind (they are trying to get all decisions out by today per folks on the USNA thread) and everything rolls forward, I suspect that’s the...

Wow wow wow!!:) What a wonderful document! I’m so impressed! Thank you for taking the time to put it together and for just being such great young people! This is what true leadership and empathy are about! You will make great officers in our great Navy!!! Thank you! Some other books to read...

I don’t think it is high because they use the number of candidates as the number that apply to summer seminar because that starts your application. That app is easy to fill out and they sell ya a bill of goods that makes ya think it’s possible at any level (believe me I went through all of it...

Thanks for posting these and good luck to your DS! I like how he applied to three!!:) Does anyone know the USMMA date? Thanks in advance! Good luck and Go NAVY!!

Aren’t we gonna hear something today?:) Maybe I’m just hopeful! Anyone heard a peep! Just crickets here! Thanks!

I’m so sorry! Please get back on that horse! You are awesome and use this as fuel!!! Kick butt!:)

That’s reassuring that they do!:) They could learn a lot all different ways for sure. Thank you as always Capt MJ for your dedication and assistance to all of us on this ship together! You are truly a wise and capable and trustworthy Capt! I’d gladly sail anywhere with you at our helm (sorry...

Awesome work!! I love this! I think admissions should check out this site; they’d get a wonderful back door window into the genius hardworking folks that are sitting pending! I’ve seen such resilience, determination, heart, helpfulness, empathy and just some good old fashioned smarts! Aways work...

I’ve always liked Jocko’s (of course y’all know the illustrious and amazing Seal) who said (YouTube link below) “Don’t get X (insert: appointed to the Naval Academy); GOOD! Get Up; Dust Off; Reload; Recalibrate, Re-Engage!” Paraphrased but thats the idea. It’s the things in life we don’t get and...
