If I remember correct from when I applied the CFA at KP is just a pass or fail, and doesn't have a point system given to it in the overall application process. This was two years ago so it may have changed but I hope this helps.

For those of you interested here are the four new promotional videos the Academy and USMMAAF had made to commemorate the Academy's 75th anniversary; Also they had a lot of posters and more promotional materials put up in the Capital South Metro station in DC, and those pictures can be...

A press release sent out by the superintendent, Last week the Congress passed and President Trump signed into law an omnibus spending bill to fully fund the US Government for Fiscal Year 2018. Congress appropriated $121 million for the Academy, a substantial increase over the $83.2 million...

If you don't get access to the BYOD then the only other open wifi on campus in at the Navy Federal. And in order to use that you have to be right near it on zero deck or just about right above it in Jones Hall to get connectivity.

LGA you will have to uber or take a taxi to. If you fly into JFK depending on what you want, your able to take the trains up until the Great Neck train station which you will then need to uber in. I think your able to do the same thing from EWR with taking the train into Penn and then the LIRR...

May, my apologies.

This may help or not, but when the cycle was happening last year, they were handing out offers from now until about a week before Indoc started. If I remember correctly there was a good number handed out in the first 10 or so days of march because people were declining at the very last minute...

That is not the case at USMMA. From what I understand you are able to swim instead of run once you are in the fleet.
