September? No Offer, Not Yet
People on the A-100 Yahoo forum started reporting offers last Monday, June 27. None of those highly desired emails from State arrived in my mail box, unfortunately. And yes, I'm bummed. I admit it.
I think my rank before the offers for the September Class went out was around 25 or 27. Actually, it could've been much lower down on the Register, since I hadn't checked my rank in a month -- and a lot can happen in that amount of time. Long story short, I checked on Wednesday and learned that my new ranking was 19/180. This was the result after all consular offers for the September class had been sent out. (I've read that ranks don't change when the offers go out; they're only updated when people accept an offer and are then removed from the Register.)
If any of the initial offer recipients declined, then we'll learn about it this week, I hope. Usually, second-round offers, when there are any, are sent out the week following the first round.
I would so love to get an offer, but I'm steeling myself for another week of silence, and then months of watching my rank slip.
But, in the meantime, I'm sending out my best wishes and congratulations to those who did get an offer. One of the most touching and meaningful stories is that of NJT. I'm so happy to hear that NJT has gotten an offer -- finally. This person has gone through a lot. My heartfelt blessings go out to the winner and family.

ugh. I was so hoping to read good news. I so know what you're going through. Keep hope alive. I too am so happy for NJT and I am crossing fingers for the same for you.
Thanks for the kind words. I'm trying to stay positive. And every word of encouragement helps.
Well, that was a nice surprise. Thanks for the encouragement Lady. (and Bfiles). Still hoping for a Sept. second round offer for you. It would be fun to be in the same training class.
