Pending Application = Scholastically Q'd?

Colleges and Universities A-Z Naval Academy - Annapolis

<p>As some of you have probably heard me say, I haven't had any word from the academy since September. Application was finished October 1st, however, no scholastically q'd letter was received, nor an LOA.</p>

<p>Concerned with hearing nothing, I e-mailed my BGO on Friday to ask if there was any update, and according his information, my application is still pending.</p>

<p>Because my application was finished in October, I'm pretty sure they've reviewed it by now. From what I've heard, if they find a file that is scholastically unqualified, that person is rejected. So, my question is, because I am still "in the running" at this point in the BGO information system, does that mean I am scholastically q'd? (A BGOs thoughts would especially helpful).</p>

<p>I'm running on speculation because I feel contacting the regional director or admissions directly seems inappropriate.</p>

<p>Thanks again for any input.</p>

<p>Unless things have changed (and a BGO can comment on this), then the following applies to board qualification:</p>

<ol>
<li>Qualified</li>
<li>Rejected</li>
<li>Deferred</li>
<li>Not Reviewed</li>
</ol>

<p>You probably fall under #3. Presumably, the board wants to wait and see (i.e. review other candidates) before they make a decision about you.</p>

3

<p>All candidates who have been found to be academically qualified receive a letter from the academy. What that means in your particular situation I would not know.</p>

4

<p>Several mids and candidates have said they received appointments w/o ever getting a scholastically q'd letter.</p>

5

<p>Then I guess the best response to any question on this board is that "who knows". Every candidate I know personally received letters. So who knows. I guess it is'nt over until July 2nd and you are not there.</p>

<p>Jadler - If I'm the #3 case, hopefully that doesn't mean I've been waitlisted. Heh.</p>

<p>Hopefully a BGO can comment as to whether the "Pending" status has any more details on their system, if it's vague like the DoDMERB status.</p>

<p>To be waitlisted, you have to be qualified by the admissions board.</p>

<p>Simayan, jadler is correct on all accounts. However, it is slightly possible that you are Case 4 above.</p>
