    Visit before accepting appointment question

    Personally, I'm biased towards navy (currently a plebe)...but that's an awesome choice to have! As for navy I would say visit maybe after spring break?(it's pretty cold here right now but if you really want the full experience don't base the visit off nice weather). Come Friday, walk around...

    Should I worry that my daughter will be a target of sexual assault?

    As you can see, I haven't posted/even been on here for a while. But I saw this post and had to say something. As a current female plebe I feel very safe here. Many of these guys are upstanding and respectful men and, like posts above mine have mentioned, we get MULTIPLE SAPR (sexual assault...

    GO NAPS!

    Another question, are we expected to bring all the listed academic supplies on I-Day? I feel like that'd be a lot to carry and your not using it till the academic year? Or do we buy it all once we get there, possibly after Indoc... Sent using the Service Academy Forums® mobile app

    Official candidate letter

    Oh Julia you have so much waiting ahead of you! I believe I got mine late May/early June last year. Just some advice: try not to think about it every day or you won't enjoy your senior year:) and if offered a CVW, TAKE IT by all means!!! Most importantly good luck! Sent using the Service...

    GO NAPS!

    Awesome story! Since your going maybe you'll know the answers to some of my questions:) Do you have to take your birth certificate/SSN card/diploma when going to the recruiting station? I feel like I read that somewhere but at the same time I wouldn't be going to the prep school if I didn't...

    Injury

    Do you only contact DoDMERB about something if you have to see a doctor about it? Also, if you do, do they disqualify you right off the bat and only re-qualify you once you get a doctor to say your healthy again? Or would they only disqualify you if they know you won't be better by I-day? Sent...

    Service Academies Day

    Mine was in north Texas but I assume it will be similar. I went in a dress. I saw some guys in nice slacks and button down shirts, even fewer with ties on, but that was as nice as it got. I remember one girl next to me was wearing orange crocs with camo pants and a hoodie; probably not what I...

    NAPS questions

    I just got my appointment to NAPS but have a lot of questions for any current/former napsters who may be able to answer my questions: 1.) Who is in charge/who runs it? By this I mean, USNA has the upperclassmen but NAPS does not, so who sets the rules? 2.) How is it in relation to plebe...

    NAPS appointees?

    I got my NAPS appointment on 3/20. I had a nomination to USNA and USAFA. SAT Math-640 Reading-620 ACT Math-28 English-30. I also had a pretty good leadership background. I think I got NAPS because of my less than stellar transcripts from freshman/sophomore year. Don't know if I'll take the...

    Still in the game

    I JUST got the call from my BGO (at 9pm!) that the academy has offered me a NAPS appointment. Even though I've never posted here before, I've been following this thread with every single reply and my first thought was to tell all of you to give you all more to hang onto while your waiting! While...

    Senator John Cornyn Nomination

    I applied to their offices for 2018 as well, ended up getting my nomination from my representative but I know they are gonna want some teacher recs. I recommend using the same teachers that the academies used because they're your math/science teachers. I know I asked them 2-3 weeks before summer...

    What's it like?

    If your still thinking about it, DO IT! I went in October and LOVED it! Wouldn't stop talking about it for days and learned and saw so many things. Just the first night I was there I met so many people and saw them working on homework (somewhat boring but funny at times because they were all...

    Submitting my application

    I finished everything on my application about a month ago but I am confused if/how exactly I "submit" it? I thought that since everything has the received date next to it then it was complete and is being reviewed by the admissions board? Is there some way I officially submit it or is it already...
