    Certified U.S. Passport

    If it’s on the list, there is a reason for it and you bring it. If it isn’t on the list, don’t bring it. That being said, EAGLE is not making any international port calls this summer with the Swabs aboard: CT, NH, MA and NY.

    Car insurance

    They can have a car at CGAS. They obviously need car insurance. They cannot have a car on campus at the Academy until their 4th year.

    NLI and USCGA

    Not completely true about cross-commissioning. Extremely, extremely rare but not unheard of.

    AEP this week

    There may be an issue at some time in the future. He might have to renounce Canadian citizenship to obtain a certain security clearance level at that time. It is not an issue now.

    The R-Day Box

    The R-Day/Day 1 Box may have caused more angst for 2018 parents than any other thing on Reporting In Day. It's a shoe-sized covered plastic box that fits in a drawer in which swabs and cadets can store food in their room. Parents worry about what's the right size, the right box, what to put in...

He did the same thing during the three previous years that most kids that go to college do - did well in school, played sports, played a musical...

    Current parent of 9th grader - admissions questions

    I'll take a slightly different tack. Your DD is roughly 2 years out from applying to AIM and even further from applying to the Academy. Relax - your DD has plenty of time.
