    CVW Offers

    Who gets offered a CVW? Does it have to do with qualification? Representation? Proximity? Is it a good/bad sign if you do/don't get offered one? Thanks, J.

    ECA Calculation

    If Board Qualified just means academically qualified, and the other Qs are medically (DoDMERB) and physically (CFA), where do extracurricular activities (ECAs) fall in? Which "Q" are they under? And how are they objectively measured to add "points" to the whole candidate score? Thanks...

    are spaces counted as characters

    When completing my application I had a lot of trouble with this. I trimmed mine down to less than 2000 characters WITH spaces, and it still wouldn't let me submit the item. It will not let you submit it if it is over the 2000 limit, but is SEEMED as if it were counting spaces as characters...

    Letters of Recommendation

    I am just confirming that there are no letters of recommendation as a part of the USNA application. No letters should be sent to the Academy (not including recommendations for VP nom, etc.). I completed my application 2 months ago and didn't see anywhere where it asked for letters. Just...

    Swimming Requirements at the USNA

    In regards to the application, there is no swimming test/requirement. When I attended NASS I remember hearing Mids talk about this. They said there are people that come the Academy that are poor swimmers. There are swim requirements that Mids must meet, but instruction is provided. They will...

    After PCQ

    I completed my PCQ about a week ago, and got a response the next day saying I was "promoted to Candidate Status," and I will receive more information on continuing the application soon. How long is it usually until the rest of the application is "unlocked?" Trying to be patient, but I want...

    Application Review

    Crair, I spoke with an admissions officer and they said that after initial review, it is simply the WPS that is updated. Then when the nominations come out they match nominations to high scores. I'm sure there's more to this than simply that, but in a nutshell, that's what they said...

    Application Review

    This question is about the process of the admissions board. In other words, I understand that an appointment is the goal, not an LOA. That being said... If the board reviews your application and does not decide to give you an LOA (say for SAT scores, or some other "easily changeable" item...

    BGO Interview Submission

    I had my BGO interview almost two weeks ago and it has not appeared on my CIS page yet. The submission of the interview is the last part of my packet (except Nom). I emailed by BGO confirming the submission of the interview. My understanding is that your file will not be reviewed until all...

    AP Stats Candidate Eval

    From my understanding, USNA does not weigh AP Stats as a "strong" math class. I took AP Stats and Trig/Precalc Junior year. My AP Stats teacher knows me much better than my Trig teacher, and therefore could write a better Evaluation I believe. Because of USNAs view on AP Stats is it better...

    "Evaluation of Candidate"

    The English and Math teacher "Evaluation(s) of Candidate" are supposed to be current or from the previous year. I will be a senior this upcoming year, so I assume this means that the teachers must be from junior or senior year. I had Math and English teachers my sophomore year that both know...

    Application - requested "High School Official"

    CandidateElias, I received my Official Candidate Letter after my school year ended, so it would be difficult to contact and set up an interview with the "High School Official." Essentially though, the person does not need to know you very well, correct? This is simply a person that submits...
