You've been incredibly helpful Just_A_Mom. I actually finishied the URI application a couple weeks ago just in time for early action. I didn't choose military science where it asked possible fields of study (or perhaps majors)... will that be a problem? I'm sure I could always change it later.

Thanks again for the fast reply. Haha, I guess I'm a little late in the whole process... I'm pretty sure that they haven't received my SAT scores or high school transcript as I only sent them a couple weeks ago. Once they do though I'll keep checking for that letter. Thanks again for the...

Thanks for the quick replies. I guess I will apply, although I'll probably have to retake SATs first.

Looking at sites like princetonreview, collegeboard, collegeview, etc., I can't believe how difficult these academies are to get into. For the past year or so I've been asking the same question, and keeping the academies in the back of my mind as I research colleges that may realistically accept...
