True, but it should be coordinated with the cadet and his/her parents. A-Day is often when the cadet wants down time, time to just sleep, and time with parents/siblings is important. It may be better to visit on a football game weekend.

YES.

Thank you!

Good to know! I wasn’t aware of these. Also, our son will be USMA2027 and we’re 10 mins from the CLT airport. Feel free to reach out if he needs anything!

This year, 100% of the sponsored USMA candidates at GMC received their appointments.

Congratulations! We’ve had a wonderful experience with GMC.

Hello- our son has been at GMC this past year, as well. Knowing what we know now, we are so thankful for this year. From his experience, it has been appropriately challenging/rigorous academically. He did retake the SAT along with a roommate. His scores improved by a good bit. Academically, he...
