    Questions About Freshman Year?

    1. I know a couple of cadets who are in the triathlon club that have their own bikes as freshmen. I would imagine they would allow the mountain bike club to do the same thing. I'll do some investigating and confirm that. 2. Yes, you probably could store them with your host family if they are ok...

    Questions About Freshman Year?

    Wildblueyonder has given excellent advice! I would just emphasize how great the instructors are with EI. Almost all of the professors will know you by name so getting help from them is super easy!

    SAT/ACT Troubles

    This is ridiculous......It's sad that we have to have a literally pointless argument when someone is simply asking for advice on the SAT.

    SAT Dates

    From what I remember, the Academy allows you to update/add to your application even after the submission deadline.....If you think you can improve even more on your scores, I would say go for it!

    LOA questions

    The academy is very difficult, but I wouldn't want it any other way. I personally love the place even as a freshman. The instructors are awesome and the resources you will have to access to are simply unbeatable. In addition to the academics, the friendships that you develop will last a...

    LOA questions

    Your congressman or senator will be notified that the academy wants to give you an appointment......They should give you the nomination since they know it will be filled.

    Preparing as a high school freshmen

    Definitely some quality information here.....My two cents is to make sure that you are well rounded. Get involved in your high school by participating in sports, NHS, clubs etc.

    Friday appointments

    Honestly, I have come to the point where I have decided to just enjoy senior year and let the chips fall where they may.......Attending the academy has been my dream since the fifth grade, but if I don't get in this year than by gosh I'll apply next year out of AFROTC. Best of luck to everybody!

    Act scores

    My composite Act score is 30, but I got a 25 in the science section....If my unweighted GPA is a 3.86 with 7 AP courses, will the low science score severely effect my WCS? .........I was captain of both varsity track and football as well as group commander of my AFJROTC unit, so I think I'm OK...
