I've been reading the posts on this forum for quite a while now and finally decided to become a member. I applied Early Action for the Academy and was pretty confident with my application. Now as December 24th is coming nearer I'm getting really nervous and starting to doubt my chances. I know the Coast Guard Academy is where I'm supposed to be so I'm not going to give up. I'm looking into a self prep year and Marion Military Institute as well.
Here are the things I put on my app:
SAT- Math 660, Reading 620
GPA Weighted- 93.4 (not sure what that would be on 4.0 scale)
Took 5 out of 6 AP classes offered in my school
59 out of 425 class rank
Track team Captain Junior and Senior Year
Part of 2 relay records(4x1 and 4×4)
300 m hurdle junior and school record holder
12 years of Tang Soo Do training (Martial Arts)
Second Degree Black belt and 2 time national champion in age group.
I also run Cross country in the fall to stay in shape.
Amercian Legion Boys State Delegate
Did a Law and Leadership Academy at my school that has been the mold for other summer programs around the country.
Worked at a country club over the summer and during the fall.
I did Community Service at a local hospital and tutored for National Honor Society, though I did over the minimum requirements.
That's all I can remember off the top of my head, but I was wondering what my chances look like because I truly have a desire to serve my country and attend the Coast Guard Academy.
Thanks for the help,
