Great, thanks all! I really appreciate the help.

Hi all, I just had a quick question about the body alteration form that you have to send in after you accept the appointment. It asks for a witness AND the applicant’s signature, so I was wondering who this “witness signature” is for. Doctor, family member, specific third party? Thanks for the...

Hi! I got my LOA from Navy a while ago and could share some test score tips. Leadership looks great btw. For the ACT, the best preparation is practice tests. There is a reddit thread that has a TON of real practice tests. *EDITED BY MODERATOR* Take a bunch of them. Print them double-sided in...

Got it, thanks!

Quick question for all: If I got my eyes retested, can I just test at any eye doctor and just send the results to Navy? Or do I have to tell them that I want to retest and they have to assign a optometrist like in DODMERB?

I’m just curious whether doing flight school extends your mandatory service time. How about if you go in subs?

Thank you all so much! Sorry for the late reply as I didn’t have notifications on for the Forums app. I definitely would’ve considered West Point but my heart was set on Navy. And I wish I could apply to WP too, but it is way too late. I’ll wait it out and see what happens. I’ll call and try to...

Hi! I got an LOA to the academy in October and just received my nomination. I got disqualified because of “D156.10 Color vision deficiency that does not meet individual Services' standards.” And it says its pending waiver submission review. I am super committed to the academy and will do...

Thank you for your help!

Hi, I have received an LOA last week for USNA. The only issue is that I might have compartment syndrome in my legs, and if so, I would need surgery for them down the line. The issue is that I really want to go to the academy but I don't want something like this stopping my dream as a whole...

Hello, I hope all of you are doing well! Thank you for your help in advance. So, I got a 33 and a 31 composites on my ACT : One was 36 math+31 verbal. The other was 30 math+35 verbal. I submitted score reports for both to USNA last month. I knew that I could do better so I took it again 10...

Thank you both for your replies! Appreciate it

Hi, Please excuse this post if there is already something like that, but when I looked, there wasn’t anything. Does the academy care for SAT subject tests? I know a lot of colleges even require it and a lot of them let you submit it as part of your admission process. Does anyone know the deal...

Very interesting.. Thank you so much!

Got it. Appreciate it. Thanks!

Hi, A thought crossed through my mind: Is it possible to get discharged during your five years of service? For example, you break a bone or you lack in performance. Do you get discharged or do they make you still serve the five years? Trust me, this is pure curiosity and nothing more. Thanks!

Hi, I am planning to apply to the Naval Academy next year but have a few questions about letters of recs. So, like most people, I am planning to apply to the academy through all four possible nomination sources. Now, each of them ask for letters of rec. Since the letters are not sent to...

Thank you all for your replies! I really appreciate it. I'm doing the tour and admission briefing this Saturday and hopefully will try for a CVW later in junior year. Thanks again!

Hi, I have been looking all over the Naval Academy site for the answer to this question... Do the tours require a prior appointment and such? http://www.usnabsd.com/for-visitors/public-tours/ The website does not explicitly state the answer to this question, and I know that most colleges do...
