Currently can barely do more than 10 pushups and 8 second fah, should i still take the cfa at inspire for practice?

Hey for the kids/parents who have went to Inspire did you/your child take the CFA? Would you recommend taking it even if you know you won’t get a good score at the moment just to show that you are trying? and if you/your child did take it or did go to Inspire what were your scores and did most...

Hello everyone! I am currently a sophomore in high school and I was wondering if anyone had insight on how I can improve. I did not have a good freshman year at all, barely passed (COVID hit me like a truck), so I'm trying to rebuild. Academically, I maintain a 3.8-3.9 GPA, I take three honors...

I got accepted into NASS yesterday, but I need to switch my session due to a schedule change with a prior volunteering commitment. Has anyone requested a session change and been successful? How long did it take to hear back?

Reading the forums is a pleasant way to spend an evening or three and I want to thank you all for building them into the helpful things they've become. Tonight my son submitted his USNA 2020 Summer STEM application and my wife and I couldn't be more happy. The process was straight forward and...

How exactly does one get put onto the waiting list? And is the waiting list for kids that don’t have a nomination?

I am currently in the process in applying to USNA and have done extensive research about the academy. Unfortunately I haven’t been able to find out what the midshipmen do on the weekends (Yes I know you don’t get much free time) but what do they do?

Hey everyone! I hope you are all doing well. As everyone knows, we’re two weeks out from Plebe Summer! So, I wanted to start a thread to compile words of wisdom, encouragement, and other tid-bits of advice from parents, graduates, current Midshipmen, etc. Please share any advice you have —...

Hi everyone! I’m working to gather up and send out all of the required documents to get ready for USNA this summer. I was just wondering if any of you had suggestions as to how I can ensure I’m physically prepared for PS? Naturally, I’m as nervous as anyone about being prepared, especially...

Hi everyone! I hope you’re all having a great Friday. I was about to call the admissions office a couple of minutes ago to get an update on my admission status. Instead, I checked my portal and I saw that I received the VP nomination this morning! I’m so beyond excited. Thank you to everyone...

Hi everyone! I forgot to mention that the Director of Noms/Appts emailed me March 7th asking if I’d accept an appointment in the event I received the VP nomination (I’m that LOA/no nomination case!). So, since I’ve been trying to get a status update, I was wondering if it’d be worth a try to...

Hi all! It’s been 7 days since the admissions decision deadline for USNA, I still haven’t heard back. LOA, no nomination as some of you know. What would any of you suggest doing? I feel like it’s best to just wait, but just waiting makes me even more anxious. Thank you!

Hi everyone! I’m still waiting! I was wondering if anybody else is too? Should I email my admissions counselor or just continue waiting? I’ve already accepted plan B, but if I were offered an appointment, either to USNA or NAPS, I’d take it. I have an LOA, no nomination, and considering I...

Hey all! I’m still waiting... not CPR, but LOA with no nomination. Anybody else still CPR or in my shoes as well?

Hi all! I have an LOA for USNA but no nomination. I was just wondering if there were ANY other possible nom sources as of now other than VP, which I already applied for. Is it still possible to receive a nomination followed by an appointment by other any sources? Thank you in advance!

Hi everyone! I have an LOA from USNA, no nomination. Is it still a possibility to receive any nomination at this point (applied for VP) or to even be offered a spot at NAPS? Or a spot with the Foundation? Are appointments post April 15th possible? Thank you in advance!

Hey everyone! Hope you all had a nice Monday. I just wanted to make a thread for those who are still waiting to hear back from USNA (after no portal update by April 15th) to post their status. I have an LOA from USNA but no nomination, and I am still patiently waiting to hear back :)

Hey everyone! I hope you all are having a great weekend! I’ve had a Letter of Assurance for USNA since November. Unfortunately I did not receive a nomination for USNA, and it is my top choice. I have not heard back yet, and I’m anxious because, as everyone knows, tomorrow is the 15th of April...

I'm honored and truly blessed to be in the current "dilemma" that I am in. Last week I got into Naval Academy Prep. I also got into USMA and now I've also received an appointment to USAFA. I love all three academies and am most in love with USAFA and USMA. I want to pursue a career in aviation...

Does any priors know what a 3270 document is and why i might need to submit it? I ran into another applicant who happened to be an admin clerk and he mentioned that i should submit it but didn't mention what it was used for.
