Ok, the application is in, the packets for the Congressman and 2 Senators will be in the mail within the week. We expect to spend the winter waiting to hear.........Here's my question: I have been told that even if a coveted LOA arrives in the mailbox, my son should go ahead and apply to the traditional university that is his "back up plan," just in case something medical should happen? We plan to apply for scholarships, etc for the "traditional university." I had thought that once we heard that he was accepted to USNA, we could abort the other application/scholarship process, but further thinking suggests that we should move forward JUST IN CASE.

Would you go so far as to accept scholarships even once son is accepted to USNA (but prior to I-Day) just in case something happens? (I am praying this will be our problem!) Any thoughts? I have enjoyed reading many wise posts from some of you!
