Wondering if you could put us in touch with someone in our area as well. I will DM you my location.

@futureusmcmom24 and @TXMomof3 have you joined the fb group for Parents of USMMA 2028 yet? If you haven't, please do so we can connect on a more public network, i.e. if you'd like to. :)

Same here. My DS is not the least bit bothered with his TD from USNA and USAFA since he looked up USMMA opportunities. He is also very excited about the smaller class size. He comes from a school where his graduating class is 2000 strong! One of the academy forums we went to last year, the rep...

I just got accepted yesterday night. Will introduce myself soon. Hope to catch up with you on there.

Thank you. He was already leaning towards USMMA before USNA TD came out. He is very happy with his choice, though he does want to commission at this point. But four years is a long time to change your mind. I'd be happy either way.

I searched for it on fb. There were several groups that popped up. I hope I sent request to join with the right one. @Bduett and @Boymomof3 have you joined the fb group? Can I DM you to find out which one to join?

After waiting, what felt like eons, the DS had a definitive answer to USNA (TD). He promptly emailed USMMA admissions with his acceptance. For those of you who have already accepted USMMA appointments, can you shed light on what is the process to prep for admissions going forward? When does he...

Just checked the portal. Turned down. Which is fine. Because the DS was leaning towards USMMA anyways. Now he can accept the USMMA appointment.

TX MOC. Still pending.

Thank you. We are still pending here. The DS is this close to sending his acceptance to USMMA. The more he reads about it, the more he likes the option.

LOL. Yes, that'd be epic but short. Still pending on our end.
