It's a mix honestly. I am currently in the USMAPS Class of 2015. I'll try and give you a run down of the application process. They will keep your academic stuff (transcripts and academic info) on file, but you will have to do a lot of stuff over again (candidate statements, ACT and SAT, CFA, and...

This is a late reply, but thank you for answering. I was curious, I never received a letter telling me I received a nomination, it just popped up on my portal in January.

I was nominated in late January for West Point and was appointed to USMAPS for this upcoming year. I was curious about the nomination source, because when I researched it online, I haven't came across many results helping. My representatives district is just 6, not 62. I'm assuming 62 is a...

I was accepted in February. I was looking forward to meeting others going too, so feel free to inbox.

I became medically disqualified from USMA and USNA becuase of a history of Pes Planus (flat feet). I received a waiver for USMA about 4 months later. I know I'm going to UMAPS first instead of USMA, but I wanted to see if anyone else going to USMA has flat feet as well. It's something I'm...

Thanks for the inputs. I made the choice to attend already, I initially wasn't aware of the likely hood of a USMA appointment following Prep, so minor worries were there. I made the choice and I'm happy with it. I'll be looking forward to my future attendance of USMA itself. This is something...

I see that you're not interpreting my wording here the way it was intended. Now you're presuming that I'm not looking into it properly, I am, that's why I'm inquiring here. I wasn't declaring that it is "repeating a senior year of high school with military training" I was saying that's what it...

I am a HS senior who very recently got accepted to West Point's Prep School, which made me very happy, but got me thinking as well. I could go there and have a chance to go to West Point or I could of done my secondary plan (doing the SMP with the National Guard and doing ROTC at Michigan Tech)...

From the number of push-ups, volleyball, and an award having the word daughter in it, I would presume they're female. Can't be absolute on it, but that's my guess.

Thanks for the input guys. I make a good effort to be conscious of how low I'm going as to make sure I'm doing push-ups correctly. I'll definitely keep that in mind though. However, I want to decrease my mile time and I know I can do it. I don't run on a regular basis, so starting that will...

I'm on the first decision board for the 4-year Army ROTC scholarship. I took the PFA in August and couldn't find much info regarding that specific test. Here are my scores: Push-ups in a minute: 81 Sit-ups in a minute: 65 1-mile run time: 6:13 I'd appreciate the feedback.
