    Youngster cynicism

    Reply Wow, never once did I see my job as "Administrative," sure we all have paperwork in every job we do in life no matter military or civilian, but your remark is way off base. And the daily "academic grind" is a disappointment; maybe college isn't your thing. But what would your...

    Bears unveil new logo/uniforms for Secretaries Cup game

    I really don't like to say anything negative, but Bruce, I agree. Whoever was on the committee either went the cheap route or stock print. Not too sure about those claw marks on the sleeves either; are the USCGA players goring one another? From what I understand it is a contract agreement...

    Scholarship

    If you have been awarded a cash scholarship it can be applied toward the debt that is accrued due to uniform issue, computer and textbooks. Once accepted at USCGA, and if the scholarship requires that the money be sent directly to the academic institution, then the money could be transferred to...

    College Courses

    I wouldn't worry to much about not being able to fit Chemistry into your schedule. I am currently counseling a young man who is reapplying. The college that he is attending this year operates on the quarter system, so he only takes 3 courses per quarter and is having the same difficulty as you...

    Classes for Junior year

    I would take an elective, any elective, rather than coming in late. To be quite honest, your schedule looks pretty do-able for an average high school student and I too question the need to "catch up" on homework during a late start. Why not volunteer at your school during that block of time...

    Cadet for a Day... help?

    USCGA Power Outage There was a planned power outage at USCGA from 0600 until 1600 today AND the weather is to get severe here later this afternoon (it is thundering as I type). If your S/D attended AIM, and protocol is the same for this coming year's cycle for the Class of 2017, AIMsters will...

    SAT Subject Tests

    No subject test scores are necessary. Though, I would always look at the requirements for your Plan B schools.

    USNA and NROTC applications

    One question that a BGO is to ask each candidate is if they are also applying for a NROTC scholarship. The candidate's response is then noted (or should be noted) in the BGO report to Admissions.

    I-day physical question...please help.

    Ringworm is contagious. It can be spread when you share things like towels, clothing, or sports gear. Call USNA and explain the situation; he in may in fact be told to continue the prescribed treatment and USNA medical will follow up during the induction process. On the other hand, not...

    Deceased Grandpa/Mid at Sea

    Contact the American Red Cross. They are able to get word to service members. Though times like this are tough, the chances of him being brought back for the funeral are very slim. Our service member lost her grandfather while on patrol and was not able to make it home but the Red Cross was...

    Stats for Graduation

    You should contact your BGO and they will be able to send you the "official" script for scholarship award ceremonies. They would be able to send a digital copy to either your guidance counselor or to you directly. This is not the time to "guess" about statistics or facts.

    Admissions board and bgo questions

    Per instructions I do not interview a candidate until at least 40-45% of the application process has been completed. Historically, my interview season gets going in late August, early September and winds down in late December.

    Filling out the PTR

    And the news is that they will be re-tested once they get to the academy. Rational, the Mid/Cadet may have been exposed between the time of the latest test and reporting in to the Academy. Some insurance carriers may not authorize payment for certain immunizations. The Mid/Cadet will receive...

    Marijuana Use Question for Larry Mullen

    A lie is a lie. A lie on an official government questionnaire or application is a big lie. This is honor offense material once you are at a service academy. It is best to begin with a clean slate, especially since there are quite a few of us who are BGOs. I do hope that you did not post...
