Is anyone familiar with the likelihood of getting accepted into USMA from VMI? I understand that grades and leadership activities are taken heavily into account in the application process. If I were to attend VMI for a year and reapply, would I have a good chance if I have no new leadership...

I'm applying for all ROTC scholarships in addition to the service academies. I recently had a dodmerb at Andrews Air Force Base, and received some painful news. My vision is correctable to 20/20 in my right eye but only correctable to 20/25 in my left eye due to a case of amblyopia, which the...

I'm currently an upcoming senior applying for USCGA class of 2022. Does anyone have a specific list or have a solid idea of what all the coast guard officer careers are? I have tried using the Coast Guard website, but can only find broad categories of what coast guard officers do (for example...
