    USNA Culture

    Haven't read the above posts thoroughly, but do keep in mind that although your time in the service will be longer than the time you spend at the SA you choose to go to, the SA is what will form your perspective and leadership as you enter the service. Find a place that you feel like you will...

    How will a suspension affect my Admission potential?

    With the amount of Mids that Juul at USNA, as long as they're aware of the situation it shouldn't be a problem. When I first got here (I'm a mid), I was mind-blown by the amount of people that juul and dip.

    Last minute questions before I Day

    I just want to bring any items that I would want during the beginning of the academic year with me (just in one backpack) because it will be a hassle for my parents to send stuff as they will be living on the other side of the world. They will be in the middle of PCSing so sending me stuff will...

    Arriving to I day

    Hi there, Quick question: what is the most ideal way to arrive to I Day? Both my parents and my baby sister will be coming. My dad is active duty so we should have no problem getting on base. Should we drive onto the yard and find parking (less of a hassle this way with the baby), or is there...

    Last minute questions before I Day

    Tomorrow is I day! Before I ditch the internet for a good amount of time, I have a few last minute questions before I Day that I'm sure you could all help out with: 1. My family and I came over to the east coast about a week early so we could have a bit of vacation time, and I brought a...

    Navy federal

    Has anybody had the experience of having a navy federal account automatically opened by the academy? In my permit to report package I received a NFCU package but did NOT fill it out because I already had a NFCU account — I just planned to bring a direct deposit slip to I day. In other words, I...

    ACE loan

    Hello, Incoming plebe here. A question about the ACE loan: My parents have kept a 529 plan for me and said they are completely willing to use it to pay off my ACE loan. I believe the loan is somewhere around 8.5k, but the academy says they can receive up to 17.5k. My parents said they will pay...

    Plebe Parents Weekend

    I can't seem to find much official information about Plebe Parents Weekend other than the days it will occur. What exactly is it? I've tried searching around, but I can't seem to find anything about the purpose of the event. The only reason I ask is because I am unsure as to whether or not my...

    Company Assignments

    Quick question: do we find out company assignments before we get to I Day? I've seen some advice about sending the first package a day or two before I day, but how would it be sent to me if I do not know my company yet?

    DBIDS / USNA Access

    Hi all, Incoming plebe for 2022. There is a form that I need to complete for my parents and siblings for access to the base. The form is the "Parental Driving and Parking Privileges Form." If my father is active duty and all of us dependents have military IDs, do I still need to fill this form...

    Portal

    Hi all, I'm headed to USNA this summer. I've been trying to login to my portal to take care of some forms that I can only access through there. For some reason, I can't seem to login (using username usnacandidate). Does anybody know if it's possible to access the necessary forms without...

    Education after the academy

    Hi all, Does anybody know which branch, in general, tends to have the best opportunities for continuing education after the academy? Doesn't necessarily have to be right after the academy, but even several years into serving. This is just one very small factor I am weighing in in making my...
