    Deciding to Affirm/Leave USMA Advice

    I used to live on this forum in high school. (Which I DO NOT recommend--enjoy high school and quit the extracurriculars you are only doing for resume points! Just work hard at the things you are genuinely passionate about, get good grades, and be kind and you will do great. But that's not what...

    To apply or not...

    I received an LOA from West Point about a week and a half ago. I am ecstatic about it! However, it has sort of disrupted my Plan B, C, D, etc. USMA has always been my top choice, but I also decided to apply to AROTC. My ROTC application is not yet complete. I still need an interview, my physical...

    Hello, I am only a sophomore at the moment but am set on going to USMA and was wondering if anyone can give me some advice on nominations.

    SAT Subject tests

    Hello, I am just curious as to whether USMA will look at SAT subject tests. I know they are not required, but, though my school is academically competitive, it does not rank students so I want to do everything possible to validate my grades. I am only a sophomore at the moment and am probably...
