I faced this same decision last year at this same time. Ultimately I chose to attend West Point. Why? Character.

My best advice is to apply for both. My decision (acceptance) came on May 19, 2020. I also applied for USCGA AIM program and was waitlisted. I honestly did not put as much work into Navy's application as I did Coast Guard's and I did not overthink it and got in. I was however very detail...

I am an applicant to both the Naval Academy and Westpoint. I am a candidate for the entering class (2025). I originally applied to three academies and found this to be very time consuming. It is definitely something that is do-able, but you must start early and prioritize your time. My best...
