    How stacked am I?

    Don't forget about the other parts of the CFA. You can run the mile in 4 minutes but if you can't pass the push up portion then that amazing mile time won't matter. Just remember that the CFA is a pass/fail thing. In my opinion it would be better to practice for the Army PFT because that's what...

    Academy Application Question

    For the first question, I think that what it is asking for is if you have had to overcome some difficulty like going to an inner city school or living in a rough neighborhood or having to help support your family because your parents/guardians couldn't adequately provide for the family. The...

    Enlist and then to USNA?

    Or if you're really set on going to the Academy, you just go to the Academy if you get accepted on you're first try (remember, the majority of people who have made it through the Academy DO NOT have prior military service). If that doesn't work then you should have already applied for an NROTC...

    Sports and Admission

    Yes this is good. The Naval Academy likes to see that you have done well in a sport that you are passionate about and I'm assuming you are passionate about your sport since you compete on a world level.

    Transportation Request?

    In the PTR package there is a transportation request form. Do we only need to send this in if we want USNA to set up a commercial flight? The ticket for my flight to Baltimore has already been purchased so do I even need to fill out the Transportation Request form? I'm sending an email to...

    Permit to Report!!

    I just checked my CIS and it was there too but the one form I looked at (the immunization form) was from last year since it used I-Day 2008. I didn't really have time to check out the rest of the package but I would be careful because they may have posted last year's package by mistake and...

    Blisters?

    One thing that I can add that hasn't been said already is that if you get a blister and it ruptures, don't take off the skin. Leave it there so that you still have some protection and so that the blister heals faster (just slap a band aid or mole skin or something over it). Other than that...

    CFA Score

    You can take the CFA as many times as you want. Just remember that it is a pass/fail thing and that while you should strive to do your best on every event it is not necassary to max everything to get in. It definately looks better if you max everything or score higher than the max on something...

    senior year

    Hey speaking of senior year grades... does anybody know when the Academy requests senior year grades? I already have an appointment and I'm not worried about my grades; I'm just curious as to when the Academy wants your transcripts and if I should send in my transcript for last semester's...

    Selective Service Question

    I am about to turn 18 and I know that all males are required to register for selective service when they turn 18. My question is this: Am I still legally obligated to register for selective service even though I have an appointment to the Naval Academy? Thanks for the help.

    CVW

    No you don't need an LOA to request a CVW. It might be too late to sign up for the CVW in November, it doesn't hurt to ask. There will also be a CVW next semester that you would definately have time to sign up for. If you are able to go then you should go because it truly is a great...

    CFA help

    I know that I can take the CFA as many times as I want but can I resubmit it if I have already sent in the rest of my package? Thanks for the help.
