I figured. They are willing to plan the trip around the schedule provided by the Academy. As far as I've seen, though, whether it's in the summer next year depends on which split I'm assigned for the class and when sea year is assigned to me.

Could you explain what this is? Thank you for your insights.

Hello fellow Mariners, I'm excited to share that I've been accepted into the USMMA (will most likely choose over the USNA), and I'm eagerly looking forward to starting this incredible journey this fall. As I start planning ahead, I'm faced with a bit of a dilemma regarding my family's plans and...

I'm thrilled to admit that I've been accepted into the Merchant Marine Academy just this week. This early acceptance from the USMMA leads me to hope that I'll be hearing from the Naval Academy soon. I can't wait! Come June 27th, my username might just fully represent my aspirations. Emphasis...

Wow, am I really at a point where the only thing that determines my fate is life? Well I've been doing all of the right things. I've enjoyed leaving as big of an impact possible before walking out come June to pursue "bigger" and "better" things somewhere in the north-east. My biggest fear...

Hello all, I'm applying to the co' 2028 and will be taking my CFA on the 10th of December. I feel confident in most areas but the area I struggle most in is pull-ups. I'm sitting at around 5 solid reps right now, and I have begun practicing them consistently this past week. Will 13 days be...

What does this mean for co' 2028 applicants?

Your stats are impressive. Make sure to emphasize your hardships during your BGO interviews and in your application packets, such as the challenges of running a farm with your single mother. I understand you have a busy schedule, but if you can allocate some time to improve your ACT score, it...

Have you applied for nominations? My sources closed their applications earlier this month, and it’s best that you be aware of the deadlines so you don’t miss them (deadlines can be found on your congresspersons website).

I’ve always been dedicated to making a significant impact from as far back as I can remember. I recently shared my resume on these forums for you to review. I had the opportunity to intern for my district’s congressman over the summer, and I highly recommend the experience to rising seniors. It...

Hello all, I understand that this question may have been asked before, but surprisingly, I couldn't find an answer in the forum's history despite searching for a while. Anyways, here’s the question. I’ll be applying for the class of 2028. I live in the fifth district of Tennessee (which is...

I didn't intentionally try to make it sound impactful; I simply mentioned it as a hardship when prompted. I didn't aim to win the hearts of the admissions officers by stating, "During my freshman year of high school, the COVID-19 pandemic negatively impacted my ability to thrive as a student."...
