    Sports at USNA

    From a former community college reapplicant and current plebe, the easiest varsity sport to join with no experience is the offshore sailing team. They can’t recruit, so all members are walk-ons. Some like me walk on with years of offshore experience, others make the team with only their 4 plebe...

    Current Self Prep at Marion Military Institute- ask any questions!

    Im another self prep at Marion this year. I got my USNA Appointment. The numbers for MMI are pretty impressive. Definitely the best self-prep results out of its competitors. I can't give you a sure statistic but we should be around 75-80% appointments for self preps this year. If you want me to...

    USNA Class of 2027 Waiting and Speculating

    I was just about to sit down and do the same spreadsheet analysis. Thank you for saving me the trouble. I have been over these numbers and other data sets more times than I can count and more frequently than I would like to admit. I've looked for patterns and clues everywhere. Haven't found...

    USNA Class of 2027 Waiting and Speculating

    Is there any anecdotal evidence or data to suggest that the admissions process likes to handle the more competitive districts first and save the less competitive districts for later? I notice a pattern of more populated districts getting more appointments earlier, but maybe I am just seeing...

    Current Self Prep at Marion Military Institute- ask any questions!

    No. In MMI SAP you are SAP, not in any other curriculum programs. You are required to take Military Science through the Army ROTC department but you are not a member of Army ROTC. AFROTC is whole separate program. It is also not on campus. MMI is a subsidiary of the U-Alabama AFROTC wing. They...

    Don't want to waste time while DoDMERB is down

    Mr Mullen, USMA has requested a waiver for me on 10/12/2022. I want to make sure I am working to be responsive to any AMI. Would I be able to send an email to you as well?

    So most likely I'll get denied this year, and I have a solid plan B which is going to Marion Military Institute, but I am wondering how the foundation scholarships work. If you get denied, do you have to notify USNA that you are interested in getting recommended to a foundation school? Or do...

    It has gotten to the point where I can type my portal password faster than my name. Eventually I'll just be curled up in a fetal ball somewhere repeating my login over and over again for eternity

    I am in the same boat. My district has two committed athletes. 1 for football and 1 for squash. I've made peace with my plan B, but I am not saying anything yet and keeping my fingers crossed for a miracle.

    USNA Class of 2026 Appointment List: Self-Maintained and DIY

    So what I hear is there is still hope. I've done some serious number crunching for my IB math class but that stuff is nothing compared to these numbers. I don't think I would even know where to start if I tried to extrapolate something😂.Trying to see clearly into the USNA admissions process...

    Confused about LOA

    @bubblyroses Did you receive an email or notification that your portal status changed, or did you just randomly check it and saw the LOA?

    Do applicants receive an email when the portal updates? or should I just keep checking my portal every hour like I have been doing.

    DoDMERB disqualified me for an issue I don't have

    I received notice from DODMERBS that I am not medically qualified for USNA by reason of "a current or history of academic skills disorders, including but not limited to ADHD, dyslexia, learning disorders, or need for academic accommodations." But I don't fit into any of these categories...
