Tell him to keep an open mind.. This is a big thing the SMC's offer that the Naval Academy cannot. A great education without being locked into any particular branch(until the end of your sophomore year).. Make sure he keeps an open mind.

Is he wanting to go to a military college? Or are you making him look?

You cannot just not take it, you must take ROTC all 4 years.

Good effort but still not what I am looking for as ROTC is an academic requirement as SMC's..

I'm just not sure because I know the Coast Guard has DCSS from The Citadel so I wonder if the service commitment would be absorbed.

Hey everyone! I was recently accepted to The Citadel and would love to hear from any other members of the Class of 2020!! Send me a DM or reply!

Hi there, Just curious if anyone can provide an answer... If I am granted an NROTC scholarship to The Citadel, can I commission into the Coast Guard via DCSS or OCS later on down the road? Thanks

A while back a USMMA Admissions field rep visited my school, I remember her saying that the academy selects based on region. For example, the East coast is much more competitive than the Midwest, and I was just wondering if anyone else has heard this. In addition, how does the commissioning...

It seems to me that when talking with men throughout the Marines, can't talk for the Navy, but there seems to be a negative attitude towards Naval Academy grads. Especially among the enlisted ranks... Just curious, don't need any hate mail, but I'd like to hear from some people on if this seems...

Hey everyone, I was wondering if there are any USCGA Football players or athletes for that matter who were recruited who could let me know if this is an email actually from the coach or just a generic email? Any info would be greatly appreciated! -John

Can anyone explain how you gain a comission into the Armed Forces thro MMA?

I don't like the diversity theme... At all, they should get the best man for the job, not because some bleeding heart liberal feels they don't have enough minorities. That's ludicrous and stupid and offensive to all who have served, I don't care about color until it is a basis of recruitment or...

Sorry to hear it didn't work out for you..

Hey everyone, I was wondering if anyone could offer some advice on the best way to be one of the lucky few sent directly to flight school out of The Academy, any info is appreciated, thanks!

Crap at the Naval Academy? Last time I checked the Naval Academy puts out a pretty good product...

I have heard from a few guys at my school who have gone on to play football and baseball at West Point and USNA that they got in with subpar academic credentials compared to the rest of he corps of cadets owing to them being recruited athletes, for example the now West Point baseball was...

While I appreciate the input I am also open to the Air Force and while I do know that all Marines have infantry training, I want to fly in the military wether it be Coast Guard, Marine Corps, Air Force or Navy which reminds me, what is the policy on applying for more than one commission and if I...

It has nothing to do with him disagreeing with my opinion of MY future which is fine, it's how he came across, saying that my gpa was too low for he Naval Academy so I go here as a result as if he actually knows me, that's my issue, and I know the purpose is to bring about professional mariners...

Bro?... Ok, well, anyway, if you did go to KP you would know it's a great university and is not second class, get out of here, no way in hell you go to Kings Point

One of the bigger jerks on this forum, no actually, I like the idea of doing something unique and far from the normal college life, now I don't know about you but serving as a Junior Officer aboard a Merchant Ship or USN SeaLift Ship, and then when I'm done with that I get a commission In the...
