2024年11月12日 · We received an email from USAFA admissions this morning followed by LOA in portal. We didn’t receive LOI last week so this is a pleasant surprise! Anyone else got notified of LOAs?-Language from the letter-Congratulations! You have been approved for admission to the United States Air Force Academy Class of 2029.

2024年12月3日 · Hi everyone! I have a quick question regarding Letter of Assurance; I have opened my USNA portal and received an LOA Conditional Offer based on my Medical Examination Active remedial due to my medical disqualifications. I was wondering if there is any other information or specifics on the LOA...

2024年11月12日 · Bottom line is the answer I got is the LOA (or appointment) could come immediately, in early 2025, or not at all. We'll just have to be patient at this point. You can read the thread by viewing my posts if you want to understand what those who know the processes best said about LOAs vs Appointments.

2024年11月18日 · My DD was one of those, getting an LOA from USAFA just a few days before the decision day of May 1. Her LOAs from USNA and USMA also came "fairly late," e.g. February and March. As mentioned here many times each cycle, the SAs grant LOAs for any number of reasons -- known only to them.

2024年10月28日 · My kiddo received her LOA in September of her application cycle year ( 2020) and had her full offer of appointment 4 years ago yesterday. Her LOA was clear that it was conditional upon being 3qd- and her appointment came soon after she secured her nomination.

2021年3月31日 · LOA is also used to lock in their most wanted candidates by each Academy. The truth is, Academies compete for similar candidates. SAs know that candidates are applying to multiple SAs, Ivies, Military Colleges, and other selective colleges. LOA increases the chance for SAs to successfully close the deal with candidates they most want.

2023年7月28日 · It‘s as simple as that. Consider a couple scenarios: (1) Candidate has LOA come ED deadline. If they apply ED, then the LOA is clearly irrelevant because they prefer another school over the SA. (2) Candidate has no LOA come ED deadline. If they apply ED, they clearly prefer another school.

2024年12月9日 · I have a funny feeling far more LOAs go out that people realize. On a similar note, is it beneficial to have a multiple congressional nominations while having a LOA, BUT will be going through DODMERB waiver process. Basically, does a LOA "expire" if a congressman "slots" are used up and there is no longer a spot for his "nominated cadet."

2024年9月30日 · They can come any time during the cycle. And, as always stated, they are a nice to have, but not necessary. Just because someone gets an LOA, it does not mean they will actually get the appointment. There are requirements to be met in them usually, and not all meet them. (Ask me how I know).

2024年5月26日 · Probably just a return to the norm. Historically, USMA has given out far fewer LOA's than other SA's. The problem with giving out LOA's is that if the LOA holder gets beat on the slate by a non-LOA candidate, admissions must then find an authorized category to charge the LOA holder's appointment. They can not simply create more slots.
