Does the Naval Academy check your credit as part of the background check?
I've never heard that a credit check is done as a condition of admission but, once they have your SSN, it's easy enough to do.
Although I agree that a 17 year old with credit problems should probably not be admitted to the USNA, the fact remains that many many people have their credit stolen every year. Once you are "on" to the scam it can takes YEARS to correct.
Also, no one's SS# is safe if a talented and resourceful crook gets it. That includes young adults, children and babies....
