    Highschool junior with aspirations to get into West Point Academy?

    Financially i am good since my parents guranteed me to pay for it. Especially if i can pay for it little by little also. I was skeptical about applying because of my gpa. Apperently it has a 52% acceptance rate, and with my 2.3 gpa (maybe 2.5 in senior) im not sure if id get accepted because of...

    Community College Student applying to USMA?

    Im am a student in highschool. I asked hypothetically if its possible to get accepted at USMA as a CC student. Sorry if i didnt seem clear on it, i noticed it appeared that way also. Thing is i have had different plans, looking at all alternatives, so i asked about the community college first...

    Highschool junior looking into VMI, need advice?

    This seems like a viable option actually. If thats the case, i believe id rather attend there for all 4 years than to miss out a year on such a great school. I know a few people who attend there currently and one that is also trying to apply there. He is a good friend of mines, and has a high...

    Highschool junior looking into VMI, need advice?

    I will look into that tbh. If anything i need to move up my gpa as much as i can and have a strong application to show to them. I was planning to take VMI for one year and try to apply to USMA through there. But now all im trying to do is finding a way i can get accepted into either school with...

    Highschool junior looking into VMI, need advice?

    Then in that case, how is it that i would be able to explain my tubulous 4 years? And would i have to go there for an interview or send them an essay regarding my unstable performance? Freshman was terrible, sophmore ive only gotten 1 F the whole year while the rest were As. This junior im...

    Highschool junior looking into VMI, need advice?

    2.3 weighted. I can take ap and do well senior and move it up to a 2.5-2.6 if its possible. And no that is the overall new SAT score (max is 1600). I would say a well over 650 on math and reading is what i can accomplish. Honestly if feels truly hopeless. But i really do want to try my best to...

    Highschool junior looking into VMI, need advice?

    I appreciate the honest answer Lawman. Though i was also looking towards The Citadel also as the acceptance rate was slightly higher. I do have other options open as either way ill go to rotc at a college and comission.The reason i ask about these colleges is due to it being quite attractive to...

    Highschool junior looking into VMI, need advice?

    I appreicate the answer :). And yes i saw it, but as a result it dosent depict other factors that would increase your chances to get accepted. I honestly feel a bit discouraged, unless i work my butt off in senior year im not sure how they will see me.

    Highschool junior looking into VMI, need advice?

    I am a junior in a college prepatory highschool (one of the best) in Florida. But i am worried i wont get accepted into VMI because of my low gpa. My goal is to comission in the army as an officer. I originally asked about USMA, but i would like to see other options in this situation. I have a...

    Highschool junior with aspirations to get into West Point Academy?

    Haha, honestly i would imagine myself in a situation like that once i actually comission as an officer. (of course once i put my effort and determination into the goal.) Though i am very glad to have great public speaking skills, so i believe its a good trait for me to have. If anything im...

    Highschool junior with aspirations to get into West Point Academy?

    Actually since i have west point as one plan, 4 years of rotc in florida as my second (costs a bit more, but very efficient so i can go for a business administration major), i was thinking between VMI or The Citadel. Do you think it's a good idea to do community college rotc for a semester or...

    Highschool junior with aspirations to get into West Point Academy?

    I dont believe me being hispanic should be an excuse in any way, as you mentioned its more about my english which is a bit off. But like all things, i will try my best to perfect my english so i wont worry about it in the future. Hopefully all goes well either way, whether i go to USMA or ROTC.

    Highschool junior with aspirations to get into West Point Academy?

    I absolutely agree. My grandfather personally always told me to work hard for the sake of the people you lead. I took that to heart, because my parents dont really encourage me with my goals. Also another thing to point out in general with everyone in the forum, i apologize about earlier, i was...
