I’m a volleyball recruit!

Definitely deck! Since I am not as strong in math. And no I honestly did not put thought into my username, however I have been thinking about going Navy rotc if I end up at my backup school.

Yes they are paying for some of it. I don’t know all of the details since the coach is the one who told me, I have not gotten the official email from admissions yet. And yes I took the ACT three times and missed it by one point on the math every time. I am taking the June SAT in an attempt to...

My math score was a point short on the ACT and so I did not qualify for an appointment, however I got a prep spot at NMMI. I know little to nothing about this school. If I do decide to go, would I have to go through the entire application process again? I am a recruit and I really would rather...

Yea no I literally got 42 feet bb throw, like a 17 sec hang, 10.0 sec shuttle, 60 sit ups 30 push ups and 8 min mile and passed somehow.

After thinking about this for a few more months I’ve decided that I really appreciate the security of having a guaranteed job right after graduation, even if it means I’ll be sailing. If I get an appointment I am 100% going. You said or save up cash to go back to college? Is this allowed before...

do you think it was worth the risk? I’m in a slightly similar situation, I’m a recruited athlete and just found out today that I am 1 point off the minimum act math score. The soonest one is in April, and so there’s a chance I won’t know until June if I raised it/get an appointment. If I wait...

Are plebes typically granted special liberty or not until recognition? Also if it’s approved have you known anyone to leave over long weekends or is that not practical? Thanks so much

I know that Parents Weekend is the first time you can have family visit, as well as going home for Thanksgiving and Christmas, but I was wondering if there were any other points throughout the year where family or perhaps a s/o could visit? If I attend USMMA I would be playing a fall sport and...

Can plebes bring boyfriends from out of state for Winter Ball? I’m not familiar with rules on people visiting.

Realistically, if I were to earn straight Bs in high school stem classes, is that a good indicator that I could be ill equipped for the academics? I have good study habits and am not afraid to get extra help in order to be successful at USMMA, but I am worried about going if I won’t make it past...

No Appointment yet, still working on getting my cfa scores higher before my application is completed. also have no LOA that I am aware of, would it be beneficial to reach out to the coach and ask?

Same I haven’t been appointed yet but the only reason I got my nomination was bc I’m an athlete. Literally debating going somewhere else entirely bc if I am struggling in HS, I don’t even want to know how badly I will struggle at USMMA.

I think that the school is right for me, it’s just that I don’t know if the career choice is. I am worried that I will be stuck to sailing, and as much as I think I love the school, I am not sure if that is a risk I am willing to take. Hope this makes sense, thank you so much for responding

So do you think that a few years of potential suffering would be worth a high paying job? One of the reasons I was drawn to KP is because of the job security, it’s just the more I look into it the less I think I will be able to find a job I won’t be miserable in. However, I am also a senior in...
