I am a college reapplicant for the class of 2020 and today I figured out that the only way to get a 4.0 is to get all A+'s and that A-'s count as about a 3.7 on a GPA. So my question is does USNA really care too much about actual gpa as long as I'm getting A's in my courses? Thanks for any help.

Hello everyone, I am a college reapplicant for the class of 2020. I am going to be attending NC State university and have already started summer classes to get ahead. I will also be doing NROTC as well. I recently emailed my RD and I asked him what kept me from getting in this year. He told me...

I was an applicant for the class of 2019 and was not accepted however I received a nomination and was medically qualified. I intend to reapply for USNA class of 2020 but I want to make sure that my schedule properly models what a plebes schedule might look like. I am currently enrolled at NC...

Im currently a senior now reapplying for the class of 2020. How much does USNA look at your High school transcript when considering a college re applicant. I got a nom this year and kept my senior year grades up pretty well except for one class I couldve done better in which I'm retaking this...

So got home today and as always checked my mailbox. And it turns out I got the dreaded TWE and was not offered an appointment to the class of 2019. I was not waitlisted either. It seem like I got my rejection early. I had a congressional nomination as my nomination source. Does this mean they...

I am pretty confused in a certain aspect of obtaining an appointment or not so much in obtaining it but more of how could I possibly still get one. I have created a similar thread before asking a similar questions which was answered fairly well but I'm still a little confused. I received a...

I received my nomination from Robert Pittenger (NC District 9 rep.) back in December. Since then I know of about 3 people who were nominated by him as well who have received appointments. After talking to my BGO I was told or lead to believe (although im still a little confused) that my...

Does USNA automatically get sent your 1st semester grades or do they have to request it? And do they look at grades before a certain date for example anything before say November 29th (just a random date) or do they wait for you to finish mid terms and take that grade. Just curious. I heard of...

I just attended NASS session 2 and I just have a real quick question. Does going to NASS really have any effect on your application. I understand the detailers write evaluations at the end. So does NASS really have any effect or hold any weight in your application. Thanks Sent using the...

So I was looking through the class profile for 2016 or 2017 (I dont remeber right now) and I was looking at the percentages for how many students were varsity athletes, top 20% of class, NHS members, etc....However I noticed a section that said something along the lines of "traumatic life...

I am a junior member at the Idlewild Volunteer Fire Department down in NC. I've been doing this for about half a year now and I'm in my junior year in high school. I log at least 24 hours monthly volunteering as this is required (but I usually do more because I enjoy going). I am actively...
