<p>Speaking for USNA, as stated in the current catalog:</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>USNA will only offer scholastic LOAs to perhaps 10% of those who are accepted. As the catalog states, they commence in mid-October and continue throughout the year. So perhaps 50 or so will be coming out in the next week or so. Look at the upper 10% or so of the USNA Class of 2011 profile which is available online and see what the numbers are. Very, very selective and nothing one can really do about it. I would say that way too much undue concern has been expended on this thread worrying about something over which one has absolutely no control.</p>
<p>BGOs are counselled against making predictions. They do not see the entire package and have absolutely no insight into the deliberations of the Admissions Board. Any BGO who mentioned an LOA would be foolhardy. I would doubt very seriously if anything is different with AFA except that their board only meets commencing in Nov so they are a few weeks behind.</p>
