    Financial Changes at USCGA

    I was talking to a one of my friends from high school (now a 4th class cadet at USCGA) and he told me that there were going to be a lot of financial changes starting next year. He said that the white card accounts were being removed and that cadets would be paid their full paycheck but that they...

    Genesis Invitational

    I went to it. It was helpful to be able to see the academy from the academic side (versus the swab summer side seen at AIM). I had already made up my mind that I would accept if I got an appointment, but Genesis reinforced my decision. I had an interview with my cadet host at the end of the...

    My DS just got his LOA on 12/3

    Have him call the offices of the congressmen and tell them about the LOA. They should have already received a copy of it, but it still helps to make sure. I received a Presidential Nomination to West Point and USNA, but it is my understanding that they prefer you to get a Congressional...

    Phone calls for appointments

    I talked to my Admissions Officer a week before I got my BFE. He didn't outright say that I had gotten in, but he hinted at it (I talked to him afterwards and he said that it wasn't quite official yet when I had previously talked to him). Not sure if that helps or not....

    USCGA Application Questions

    I submitted my application two weeks ago and have a few questions. First, and the most obvious question, what are my chances of getting in? SAT: 630 Math, 710 Verbal, 650 Writing ACT: 28 Composite (28 math, 29 Reading, 25 Science, can't remember writing score) GPA: 4.01 (weighted), 3.8...

    Eyes DQ?

    I have 20/70 in one eye and >20/400 in the other. I also have an astigmatism that exceeds the limit on the DoDMERB website. I have no other health issues that I am aware of. My question is: how hard will it be to get a waiver?
