    My application has been sitting at: "Application has been submitted online Your electronic application has been received and is being processed ... Etc..." for about a month now and I heard that the board met on the 23rd. Does this mean I missed the September board since my application never...

    NROTC Scholarship Questions

    Hello everyone! Following my decision to abandon my application for a service academy(would rather go to a civilian college), I've decided to apply for the Navy scholarship, but I've got a few questions. On the references, how does it work? Are your references emailed and asked to fill...

    Color Guard

    Just a few quick questions about Color Guard(not to be confused with Honor Guard). Couldn't find it anywhere on the forums. Does the Academy consider Color Guard a sport? It's physically demanding and essentially a team activity. Does the Academy or Texas A&M Corp of Cadets have a Color Guard...

    AFJROTC Senior Year?

    AFJROTC is offered at another school in my campus, so I was wondering if it'd be of any benefit to do that my Senior year. I've heard from people that it's a "joke" and doesn't contribute to applications, but I'm certain that's just talk. Would AFJROTC be worth taking? Would it make any...

    In-School vs. Out of School Athletics

    I currently do Krav Maga four days a week - Would the Academy consider that athletic? I mean we probably work just as hard as any of my school teams and we're learning self-defense, they must put some sort of value on it. I've seen that the AFA has Karate, Taekwondo, etc. clubs. I'd like to do...

    What are my chances?

    Please don't sugar coat it. I was sent here by a 2017 hopeful who said you guys were very helpful. I'm currently a High School Junior. My GPA is decent I suppose at 3.5(standard 4pt scale) and my PSAT score was 1810(kinda low for me). I'm taking the ACT in April and expect around a 30...
