Actually, she just might go to NAPS and lead a new swim program to help others pass all those future swim tests that "Swim or be Separated" was talking about.
Also we found out that if there is a specific sport that is unique to a few, the athletic director finds that sport in the area for the student to participate in. Thingas are looking up!!
NAPS is not simply a holding pen for future admission. They will not send a candidate to NAPS unless two things are true:
1) The academy thinks they would make a good midshipman/officer, and
2) The candidate is lacking in some academic area.
If a student is fully qualified academically and the academy is convinced they are currently ready to handle the rigors of the Naval Academy course load - they will not send them to NAPS. They will either appoint or reject the candidate.
