Hi all, I play lacrosse at my high school, and I know I definitely want to continue playing at USNA during my time there. That said, I know in the ptr package it says we're allowed to bring some sports equipment (they actually specify that a lacrosse stick is an acceptable item) as long as it's...

I called and asked admissions about that and they said they are all mailed at once in April

Okay, thank you!

Do you know if it is the CAS-CX or just the CX? Or are they not allowed to use calculators with a CAS?

Are there any current mids/parents of current mids here who know what calculator (TI-84, 89, N-Spire, Casio, etc.) plebes are issued at the start of the ac year? I am considering getting a TI-89 for AP Calculus and USNA next year, but if the Academy issues 89s I would rather save the money and...

Absolutely right, my bfe took somewhere between two and three weeks after my email to get to my house

If you're worried about missing being notified or not immediately getting the notification they send, don't be. If you get in, USNA/your BGO/your MOC will make sure you know. I got mine by email back in Nov (I had the presidential nom so there wasn't an moc to call me)

Something I was curious about after my own BGO interview--What kinds of things does a BGO report back to USNA after a candidate's interview? Like how much of the BGO's report is commenting about the candidate vs. checking boxes on a scale of 1-10 or yes/no? Or is that stuff supposed to be kept...

To the OP, What happens when you click accept is it takes you to a confirmation page where you certify you haven't been injured or become seriously ill, and certify that you acknowledge the commitment you are making, and I think certify one other thing but I forget what it is. Once you do that...

I totally agree; if you decide to submit an additional LOR, it must be unique-in that what the recommender has to say not only isn't found anywhere else on your application, but maybe can't otherwise be put in your application. Looking back at my last post I didn't really emphasize that as much...

Those both make sense, thanks again to you both!

Although if it's not about looking like AWP, why would they specify the color yellow as being prohibited color for one's black N* sweater?

Thank you Navyhoops and capt mj! That satisfies a little of my curiosity about the eventful year to come. And LITS- It's on pages 4-10 and 4-11, so quite a ways in.

Just out of curiosity, I found the copy of midregs posted on the USNA website. When I got to the uniform regulations section, I came across this one peculiar entry: COMDTMIDNINST 5400.6Q 4 NOV 13 Chapter 4.8-Physical Appearance and Uniforms Section 2.G.-"Midshipmen may not, at any time, wear a...

To the OP (since this thread seems to be off on a wild tangent ride), my tidbit of advice would be to appreciate the weight that good recommendation letters will carry (not can, but will). The admissions website/officers don't really publicize it, but you can actually submit extra letters of...

In my notification of appointment email they said I-Day is June 30th for C/O 2020

Also Nick, do you have something set on your account that blocks pm's? I tried to start a conversion with you and the website told me I couldn't

There is no set minimum. Nobody here knows exactly how the admissions board determines what is "passing." One way that a lot of people (including me) think they do it is that they consider your CFA score in relation to the rest of your application, I.e. If you've got a 2200 SAT and have a lot of...

Thanks! Sorry, I didn't see that when I looked to see if there was already a thread.
