    Sleep Deprivation at USNA

    The plebes do not rate Media except for 12-24 on Saturday. For the actual topic, as a current mid I have to agree that as I get further into my time at the academy I get less sleep. Academics do not get easier, and the leadership and company responsibilities increase. I would like to think...

    Your thoughts appointment ??

    I don't want to take over this tread with another topic, but how do people know if they are 3Q? Both times when I applied I was never notified of whether I was qualified or not.

    Made it this far, the question is how further?

    Concerning #2 Just putting it out there I got my TWE in early May, so there is quite a spectrum of when you can get one. Also, yes waiting is not fun.

    Rejection

    I went through a year of college and kind of thought the same way. "What will people think of someone who has done a year of college?" When you get here though no one really cares about what you did before I-Day people focus on what you are like while you are here. There are loads of people that...

    Reapplicant Status

    Me as well as my friend both went to a very small state college, and were both admitted to USNA. I honestly believe that the academy looks more at what classes you are taking then what university you are attending. To answer the original question my friend found out he was accepted on February...

    nsbUSNA: I don't think that it hurts to submit it several times, and I have never heard that you can only submit it twice. I don't know who is administering your CFA but you can probably talk to them and tell them that you want to take the CFA several times and then just submit your best...

    What to do Next

    I was in a similar situation last year; I applied to USNA and was not accepted for the class of 2017. I then went to college and was not able to do NROTC because the program at my university was full. I took rigorous classes, earned a good GPA my first semester, and was accepted for the class...

    Started Late/Nominations

    Do you mind posting your SAT scores? From what I have read you look pretty good overall. It kind of stinks that you didn't do anything in 9th grade, but everyone has their own personal life experiences and somethings take priority. I think that it is great that you have been involved in so...

    I do know a student that reapplied this year and was actually in the JU NROTC program. He took similar to courses to plebe year one and was actually also accepted for the class of 2018. I am not sure weather NROTC strengthens your application, but I know that it definitely doesn't hurt it. If...

    About next year...

    I reapplied this year and received a BFE. I'm not sure exactly on your first two questions but I can answer the other ones. If I were you I would try to (if possible) work as well as volunteer. The summer between high school and college I worked thirty hours a week as well has helping out...

    It took me a while to get back into it. It was at least 2 months before I went to the USNA website after I got the TWE. It is really hard to stay focused on something that has consumed you for the past 6-8 months, if not more. So, take a break. It doesn't have to be 2 months but you just want...

    What were you involved with in your first semester in addition to just classes? To be honest not too much. You activity record will still have to signed off by your high school guidance counselor so not too much that you do in college will actually go on your activity record. I personal kept...

    Who did you have write any letters of recommendation for your new packet? For my new packet I only did the required letters of recommendation for the academy so English, Math, and activities record by guidance counselor. For my noms I tried to keep it a wide range of people. I had a coach, my...

    Did you get your nomination from Bill Young? Were you a primary? Yes I was actually not notified by them until December, but I had seen a nomination had been submitted by district 13 on Nov, 4th. I do not know if I was a primary nomination or not. I tried looking into it but I never came to...

    How soon did you get the second application finished? I really did not rush to get the application in early. Admissions does not even look at you application until they have your first semester college transcript in so I knew that there was no need to rush. I finish my application in the...

    Honestly, That seems pretty close to what I looked like the first time that I applied. Your unweighted score is a bit high but its comparable. It really just comes down to they only have 1200 slots and they have to have diversity, representation from the whole US, Athletes and at some point...

    I would recommend taking the SAT or ACT again. I noticed a big difference in the amount I knew between the beginning of senior year and the beginning of freshman year. Take strong classes first year in college. (i.e. Highest math you feel confident in, English, Chem with lab, History, Strong...
