There is always frank discussion about the routes to achieve an appointment. I now know the the best way is to be a recruited athlete. This may not be as accurate with USNA, USMA, or USMMA but the instance I speak of is for USAFA. I have been reprimanded before for suggesting a two-tier system...

I feel stupid asking this. I was under the impression that the last ACT score the SAs would accept was from Dec. But, if people are being encouraged to update their file with new information,does that include scores past the Dec date? I could not take the Feb test due to a wrestling tournament...

For some reason, my computer can't pull up the website that I have used in the past to check my NROTC application status. Does anyone have the correct web address? And, is it working? thanks

How do they decide which is Senator 1 and Senator 2? I received a nomination from the senior ranking senator from my state but was confused on the USNA website to see Senator2. I thought he'd be 1 for some reason. I also received a nomination from my representative for both USNA and USMMA. Does...

There are always questions on what to expect with a BGO interview,so thought I'd share my experience. He wanted to come to my house, so that he could meet my parents. We all talked for about 25 minutes and answered any of my parents questions. He also said that these BGO interviews have...

I was just curious... this USNA thread loves to discuss all the diversity the USNA is accused of trying to achieve. However, over on USAFA and USMA, they have DVP weekends. I have never heard of this for USNA. Do they have diversity recruiting weekends? Or is theirs a more secretive process?

I am a candidate for USMMA and am a bit concerned with a couple of the threads. The one with funding was concerning whether it will be around. And then a report about disrepair of the dock area. Are these things to be worried about or not really?

Received letters from my senators this week that they received my applications. There was no mention of an interview. So, after a little questioning, discovered that neither of my senators give interviews. I was told that with so many candidates that they just can't ask the review board to stay...

This question is a bit dated since NASS happened long ago.But, I have been dying to ask. Do they make an evaluation of you while you attend NASS? Of course, we did our CFA there but I didn't know if they gave secret evaluations of other kinds to place in your applicant file? It seems to me like...

In some of the threads, I have read that a SA education can be worth around $400,00. In the literature sent from USMMA they estimate the value there at about $185,00, Why the big difference?

On a letter from USMMA is says to" notify DODMERB if you have already completed a phsical for any other SA. Each academy has unique requirements , qualifications for another SA does not automatically qualify you medically for the USMMA." Nowhere on my medical form/app did I see where to...

When an MOC gives you a nomination is it for a specific SA or is it good for any academy?

All my MOC applications must be typed or hand-written. The essay portion is hand-writtten only. Does anyone know the why behind this?

I am a candidate for both USMMA and USNA. Don't know as much about KP. Would someone give me pros and cons of USMMA? Also could you also give some more personal info other than what I've read on the brochures. Thanks for the help.

Sorry if this has been a previous topic. I read that a candidate was sending letters of recommendation to the USNA. I did not see anywhere that they requested letters of rec. Now, my MOC apps require three letters of rec. On a PM a mom said the letters were optional. How can they be optional...

Is it possible to get accepted to NAPS and not have a MOC nomination?

I just glanced at a disqualification list. I am really healthy but have been taking seasonal allergy shots since a kid. This past year have hardly been regular with them at all. Will this treatment disqual me? Should I stop immediately? Not really convinced I need them anyway. Please advise

Do you need a MOC nom to get accepted to NAPS? On the NAPS thread, it seemed candidates were being accepted and my MOC apps aren't even due until October .

On the website application, it asks if your parent has served in the armed forces. On my MOC's app. it say military service. My Mom was in the USPHS and a Lt. Cmdr.with full base privileges and Navy uniforms. I did not know if that counted and asked my BGO. He did not know either and had me...
