I will be re-applying to West Point this year as a college freshman. What would be the best way to make myself stand out when compared to other applicants, as a college student?

Hurricane 12,
I can see from your viewpoint that you find the culture around Joe Pa somewhat strange and I respect that. However, what the media is reporting is wrong. Paterno wrote personal letters before his death stating what and why he did what he did. The problem is, the...
Leave Paterno Alone
In my opinion, why should the media still be going after Paterno? He wasn't the one that abused those poor boys. He wasn't the one who witnessed the crimes and instead of stopping it, went home and called thir father for advice. He wasn't the one who tried to cover it up...

It's a shame that they...
If a thread was already started on this question, I apologize..
This is my first time applying to the Merchant Marine Academy and I'm kinda of confused with some of the application procedures (previously applied to Air Force and Naval Academy)
My first question, how does an applicant find...
Thanks for the advice everyone, it was really helpful. I'm going to be a freshman at Penn State, so my engineering program is only going to be four years. I know college is much different from high school and my major will be tough, but I'm both motivated and determined to succeed and not give up.
Hey Everyone,

Does anyone have advice for getting recrutied for a USMMA sport's team? Specifically, what are the coaches looking for and how could I make myself more competitive?
I've already filled out a questionnaire for the track team and their coach sent me an email today, saying that he's interested...
