After you complete all sections of the application, is there anything that needs to be done to finalize the process and show that your application is ready? Or will admission officers be able to see that everything is completed on their own?

If you are eligible for the nomination you are guaranteed to receive it. An unlimited amount of presidential nominations can be handed out, so being triple qualified has nothing to do with it.

The early review board meets on September 1st, so I do not think any LOA's would be going out anytime soon.

The upperclassmen do not treat the drags as they would plebes; all you do is watch and observe. During the CVW the plebes that have drags are given some leeway (they don't have to do chow calls, can close their doors, use media etc.) so when you follow your plebe you get to see a more toned down...

Did anyone else just recently get an invitation for a fall CVW?

Mine took awhile to show up on my portal; I sent in my ACT scores before I sent SAT scores, but SAT showed up first.

Hello everyone, I just came back from NASS session 1 last Thursday, and we were told that the information needed to access our portal would be given to us soon after we were done. Has anyone received their log in information yet? I just want to make sure I'm not missing out on anything. Thanks!

In the "Items to bring with you" section of the packing list and instructions it says to bring 1-2 sets of civilian clothes for travel and academic workshops

I wasn't able to handle the wait any longer, so I e-mailed an admissions officer about my status. I was put on the wait list, which isn't the worst thing that could happen.

There is a Club lacrosse team this season and they don't recruit, but they do have open tryouts.

Taking AP Psychology and getting a 5 on the test (it may be a 4 but I'm not too sure) can validate the Leadership, Ethics, and Law class that Plebes must take, though getting a 4 on AP language tests can validate language classes if you choose to major/minor in them. I believe the only language...

This year I am taking AP Chemistry, Calc AB, Statistics, English 11, World History, and Psychology all of which I think are good classes to take. Next year I plan to take AP Physics C, Calc BC, US History, English 12, and maybe Computer Science, which I don't think are fluff classes. Thank you...

I have taken/ am currently enrolled in 8 AP classes, and have taken 5 SAT's and 2 ACT's. I was just curious as to how the classes played into all of it. Thanks for the input!

How heavily does USNA take into account the classes you've taken? I know taking more rigorous classes is beneficial, but to what extent does that help you? Does it make you more competitive in some way?

In the candidate portal it shows only PSAT scores that I submitted, not SAT or ACT since I have not officially sent them in. Should I have sent them in for the SLE application? Or are unofficial scores acceptable at this point?

Is anyone else attending the February 20-22 CVW? Most people I've heard from signed up for the March and April ones, so I was just curious.

Is it too late to be applying to the Boys State program in Maryland? I had just recently heard about the program and I'm not sure when the application opened or when it closes. I'm still going to finish the application, but I was just wondering.

Yeah, I'm contemplating whether or not to stay up and wait until it opens, or just check it when I wake up.

Have either of you been able to move onto the second part of the SLE application? I finished the candidate questionnaire and logged into my candidate profile, but it is saying that the application window for SLE is still closed.

NJ-USNA2018hopeful, are you talking about the one with James Franco? If so, it is not worth watching if you are looking for something that is a good representation of life at the Academy. It mainly focuses on him (spoiler alert) training for the brigade boxing tournament, which the end I will...
