    LOA to USNA=highly ranked for USMA?

    USNA Candidate - Too late about being cocky. Decide where you want to serve and go for it. Remember, there's no bonus for getting accepted to more than one academy. USNAjosh - Hmmm, better check your school's ranking. Yes, everyone's heard that one before, but when's the last time you saw...

    ROTC to USMA

    As you probably already know, USMA recommends applying for all available nominations. In your case, this will include ROTC. I can't remember who all is authorized to administer the CFA, but I believe the instructions address your this question. When in doubt, always contact the admissions...

    ARMY 2 year ECP

    Simple answer, no. The ROTC-ECP commitment clearly states the obligation is to the Army. With that said, there is probably an exception but don't expect one. The ECP is a great way to become a commisioned officer.

    Curious can you get 2 presidentials?

    While the possibility of getting two in this situation seems logical, what would be the benefit of getting two, especially from the same source? Only one nomination is required to get an appointment. Multiple nominations do not always mean a greater chance of getting in. I know a person that...

    ROTC connected nomination

    Getting an ROTC nomination will probably not be all that difficult, however receiving an appointment from an ROTC nomination may be pretty competitive since the academies are limited to 20 ROTC related appointments each year. The 20 includes JROTC nominations. Not sure there is a typical MOC...

    Peter - Given you are in the VA 10th District, you will want to talk to Ms. Potchnak and LTC Shablom in Congressman Wolf's office. They know the process and are very helpful. LTC Shablom is the USMA Liasion Officer in this area and he is also the head of Wolf's academy selection board. Don't...

    Running Issue

    Running everyday is not too much of a concern if you are not experiencing any problems. My point was made with regards to someone who is having pain during or after their runs. Trying to run through pain is not normally a good idea. If you are running everyday, I suggest the routine be...
