    NASS Question

    I went to NASS this past summer and it was great! In the application, you select the sessions you are able to go. Your admissions chances will not be affected by the week you choose or the number of weeks you are available for. My advice would definitely be to take your exams beforehand. If you...

    Nomination Limit for Congressmen

    Hi everyone, Anxious class of '19 hopeful here... Nobody told me that the single hardest part of the application is the wait!:frown: I have one question about nominations. In my congresswoman's brochure for service academies, she lists the candidates from her district currently attending...

    Multiple Senatorial Nominations?

    Hi all, I was notified a few weeks ago that I have an interview with a board representing one of my senators. I never heard back from my other senator, however, and his notifications began last Friday, or at least that's what his website indicates. So now I am wondering if it is only possible...

    Rest or try to get in shape?

    From one runner to another Even though I have not been through Plebe Sunmer, as a runner, I agree with much of the above, but I really think you should rest 2 full weeks with NO CARDIO and do the upper body push-ups/ pull-ups/ sit-ups you suggested in the meantime. You can start to get back...

    Weight of GPA vs. Standardized Tests

    Hello everyone, I've heard mixed opinions on this. Can anyone provide information as to whether more importance is placed on test scores or GPA/class rank in the admissions process (and approximately how much weight each counts for)? Will great test scores compensate for a lacking average...

    April CVW

    CVW Coming Up Hey guys, 2 questions: 1.Did anyone who will be attending the April CVW get anything after the email confirmation? I am surprised that there were no forms to fill out or releases to sign. 2. Are drags allowed to participate in PT during their visits to the Academy? I've...

    NavyHoops, thank you, that was very helpful. It doesn't seem quite as restricted as I imagined before.

    USNA vs. NROTC

    Thanks again for the lengthy responses :smile: Nuensis, what I mean by choices is the freedom to use my own time how I want to use it, as someone attending a regular college would. I'm not sure how much I would enjoy being told when I have to study, when I have to eat, when I have to attend a...

    Thank you all for your responses. Hopefully, after visiting USNA, my best path toward becoming an officer will become clearer to me.

    USNA vs. NROTC

    Hey everyone, I've recently been thinking a lot about NROTC (or possibly ROTC) after visiting a few colleges and seeing the programs they had to offer. I went on these visits with a pretty closed mind, thinking that USNA would probably be a better choice for me, but was surprised to find that...

    USNA 2019 Hopeful

    Hi all, I've been interested in the Naval Academy for almost 2 years now and, after months of checking these forums daily to learn more about SA's, finally decided to come out from under my rock and introduce myself. :smile: I'm also entertaining the possibility of attending other academies and...

    Both NASS and SLE?

    Thanks for your responses! Aspiring, do you think I could do better on the second one even after all the PT at SLE the week before?

    Both NASS and SLE?

    I was accepted to NASS and will be attending their 3rd session, but I have recently become curious about West Point's SLE and so I just submitted an application to their program as well. If I get in, however, I would have to attend their first session, meaning that I would spend June 7-13 at...
