From what I experienced in the application and nomination process, the high school that you go to doesn't really matter. If all of the qualified candidates from one district come from the same high school, very well then, they get the appointments. Never once in my application process did I see...

In my opinion, having pre-written responses is great, but you have to be able to deviate from them. Don't be waiting for a question to fit your answer perfectly...it won't come. My advice: Know the main points on what you want to say about yourself, but don't have a script memorized...

I went and asked one of my company mates who is on the club hockey team. He said it was $300 to play, which covers all uniforms, etc for it. It does NOT cover gear however.

The people in my company that went to NAPS loved it! They got paid A LOT as well. The thing to watch out for, however, is SOME people that come out of naps get in to this mindset that they feel superior to everyone else in the company.

Also, Mids are Issued a card referred to as the Midshipman Card- What it is is a direct check-card for their held pay account. How this works is: Each and every midshipman on the yard is paid $990 per month from the Navy. As 4th class, you only see $100 per month, every month (except July...

Thank you! Now that you mention it I faintly remember seeing something about this.

So I just found out that I can no-longer log in to CIS as a member of the class of 2016. The only problem is, that is where the plebe sponsor questionnaire is. Any clue how I could find the questionnaire elsewhere? Thank you.

I just got mine... November company, 25th Platoon. Bearsharks here I come!

where on facebook?

The applications process works in a strange way. Sometimes, (jokingly) I swear that they have a machine that they put the applications in to, that randomly picks people to admit for different reasons, at different times. I have seen people be accepted that I would have bet never would have been...

DO NOT DO IT!! I went to NYLF/NS. It was pretty much a really expensive trip to DC. You do not learn anything, and the speakers are quite boring. They advertise all these trips that you can go on, and all these amazing speakers that they will have; but when you actually get there, most trips are...

Just got mine the other day! Woo! Time to dive in on paperwork...

For me, my feelings are mixed. My dad and I are making the drive to Annapolis into a 2 week long road trip, and I guess I will find out how that works- but I certainly do understand the point of wanting to just say goodbye early.

In my case, the answer was NO. If you are heartset on one SA, then DO NOT apply to multiple. Long story short, my original intent was to go to go to USAFA, and I would have had it, but because I applied to multiple, I am now going to USNA. Don't get me wrong, I am excited for it - especially...

You are on top of this stuff! Thank you yet again!

Thank you!

I heard over the phone today that some PTRs will not be sent out until May 1st. I think it depends on how fast you sent in your letter of intent.

As soon as I rejoin FB on May 1st, I will do that! Can you send me a PM with a link to the FB group?

I know for us, two of the three apply. We have never been to Annapolis, and being from the west coast, getting used to the time change is a must. Also, my father and I have never done a road trip, so we are sorta' killing two birds with 1 stone.

I know that my father and I are doing a 2 week road trip, and will be in Annapolis 1 week early. We are renting a car, and then my dad is flying back home. Don't know if that is any help!
