<p>the NAPS question is supposed to be brought up during the interview.
There is a box on the BGO site where you indicate whether or not interviewee would accept NAPS.</p>
<p>It should also be appreciated that it works both ways sometimes. I have had applicants show up on the screen, email them to offer assistance and never hear back from them.
Its not a perfect system but it seems to work most of the time.</p>
<p>Other thing to remember is that, unless there is some particular reason to communicate, there isn’t a lot the BGO can really tell you. He/she may answer questions about process, etc. but we–at least in our area–don’t have a lot more information than what you have about where your application stands. Our AC, for example, does not encourage us to call him–or admissions–to check on status. We have access to a screen that indicates whether your applicaiton has been evaluated and whether the board considers the applicant “Q” [whether that means “triple qualified” is not particularly stated] and other such information but thats about it.</p>
<p>535 miles? wow. That seems to call for a telphone interview.</p>
<p>In my son’s case, for example, he met w/ BGO for his interview and that was it; didn’t speak to him before or after. So, as, I think, 2010 said, don’t read more into it than is necessary.</p>
<p>ONe other thing [re-read above]; I had an appliant who had some update materials. NHS, I believe. I e-mailed admissions and they said to contact his admissions counselor to submit the update. Via e-mail is what I believe they encouraged.<br>
2010 is correct in that, you need to remember, there are thousands of applicants. Evena quick phone call from every third of them adds up.
E-mail your update info to counselor [it is not up to BGO to update your file] fo rinclusion in file for consideration.</p>
