    Catholic Community at USMA

    Thank you for your insight! Although, I think it may be within my best interest to go to the oldest (and as it seems from the past year, athletically superior) service academy. In all seriousness though, the Catholic community at USNA sounds incredible. I’m hoping that the community at West...

    DodMERB website

    Is there any word at this point about it being back up? I completed my remedial, and all the forms are taken care of, but it hasn't been sent to USMA. I'm assuming that this is due to the portal. Is there anything I can do or any word on when it'll be back?

    Service Academy Videos

    Hello, I took my CFA this morning and felt confident in my scores. However, I quickly realized I had not gotten a video of my pull ups or push ups. I'd prefer to not take it again if possible because I was satisfied with my scores. Is there any way that I could submit a video of me doing it...

    A piece of information was wrong on my SLE application

    Good evening, I recently got accepted into the USMA SLE, and I realized that a piece of information was wrong on my application. I, of course, did not intend for this to be wrong but it was still listed until after I got accepted. I was able to change it, but should I contact my ALO or anyone...

    My HS Class Load is too intense... what do I drop?

    It generally ranges from around 3-5 hours if I'm doing everything thoroughly enough to maintain decent grades. This seems minimal but sports do take up quite a bit of time as well.

    My HS Class Load is too intense... what do I drop?

    The reason is purely over workload. I feel I could maintain good grades in all classes if I simply had enough time to dedicate to them, yet I do not.
