    Jobs after Commitment

    This is all theoretical. I have no clue how long I want to be in the Army and don't view that unknown as a negative at this point in time. With that being said, by majoring in engineering at USMA, graduating and completing the 5 year active duty commitment is it easy to land a job in industry...

    LOE???

    This is going to be a stupid question, but I am ecstatic right now so my thinking may be off...I received a letter from admissions that states in the last paragraph, "this letter is sent only to outstanding candidates deserving of admission...I am authorizing you for an Overnight Visit." I...

    Candidate Statements Question

    I searched previous posts for an answer to my questions, but found no such luck. Can the candidate statements "Make you" as well as "Break you?" Are they even graded and included in WCS because they are graded for grammar? If the Admissions Board reads the essays and is like "Damn we want this...

    Dog Bite

    Today my two dogs got into it and I tried to break it up. In the process, I was bit on the top of the hand and received a puncture wound. I went to the emergency care center and the doctor did not want to give me stitches because it increases the rate of infection, so I received steri strips...

    When can I upload my DoDMERB results to my new app?

    I am a reapplicant and my DoDMERB results were qualified (no waivers needed). I was wondering when and how I will be able to upload these results to my new app? I only applied to USMA for 2017 but I am now applying to USAFA, USNA and USMA. Will the results carry over to USNA and USAFA as well...

    Extra Spot in Congressional District

    We all know that each member of congress can have 5 cadets at USMA at one time. When it comes to the year in which they have two open spots, who determines if they use both of those spots that year (assuming there are enough qualified candidates)? Is it up to the congressman or west point? If...

    Advice Needed

    QNS was received this morning. Is a West Point education worth reapplying and taking six years to complete an undergraduate education?

    QNS Letters

    I am by no means giving up hope, but out of curiosity when are QNS letters sent? Are they sent in a big wave in June or starting in April? What's the timetable for these? Whatever it is, I hope I'm not on it.

    On my home tab for my portal a blue official correspondence box is displayed and was uploaded within the last half hour. At this time it says "You have no official correspondences from West Point Admssions at this time." I imagine that they are preparing for the 26th...Does anyone know about...

    SATs v. College GPA

    My SATs (1910) are Math 730, Reading 630 and Writing 550 (:mad:). My first semester college grades have been finalized and I got a 4.0! By getting a 4.0 (primarily Plebe courses as well) does this make up for semi-low test scores and make me significantly more competitive? Thanks!

    Interviews

    I have been searching around trying to figure this out, but I can't find any threads unique to my question. I have a nomination and went through an interview to get it. I have met with my FFR once, with the primary purpose of meeting a current cadet. Do I need to schedule an interview with my...
