    Anyone had experience of being a few days too young so offered NAPS?

    That happened to my son . Take NAPS . Naps is everything that has been posted prior on this Forum. Helped my son immensely . He graduates from the USNA in less then 2 weeks .

    USNA vs West Point vs ROTC and athletics?

    I would believe a 3.0 at the USNA would be a little more difficult then at Cal . Hard to compare the two. couple of insights . If she is an athlete , I would contact the coaches of both the USNA and the USMA . If she is good and they want her , she will get in .

    CVW or prom

    That's something you will have to decide . Sounds like your a little on the fence about the whole military thing . Its up to you . As for my son the Academy was number 1 priority . He wanted it since 6th grade

    Best Majors at USNA

    On a more serious note, My son had no clue what he wanted to major in when he got to The Yard. He talked to lots of his company Mids and decided on what he wanted. So you never know. What he thought he wanted to major in didn't even come in the top 3 for him when it was time to choose.
