All right, thanks for the info!

I hopped on the ROTC application a bit later than others, I think, but I just wanted to check something. Can I use my USMA CFA for my AROTC PFT? By having my R/C send them to the ROTC command or something like that?

I went to Illinois Boys State. There wasn't really any application process for me, I just talked to one of my teachers and was put in contact with the AL post. If any Illinois/Chicago peoples have any questions feel free to send me a message.

Regarding the SAT test scores. One thing that really helped me boost my scores (a boost of over 100 points) was doing the Khan Academy test prep. You can link your college board account to Khan Academy through the college board website allowing Khan Academy to view your test scores and...

Hey @LTMOM . I'm an applicant to USMA 2023 with a pretty similar case. I just had all my initial exams completed and am going to be going through the waiver process, most likely. I don't have much info to offer you now other than the reassurance that others are in the same boat. When things...

@18Hopeful @orbornmom Thank you for your insight!

Hi all, I am hoping that I can find some guidance/advice on how to be proactive with the DoDMERB waiver/rebuttal process. I have an allergy to Brazil Nuts. I've only ever had one reaction (when I was 5) and have not had any issues since. The reaction, however, was deemed to be anaphylactic. I...

Firstly just want to say - We the People!! I'm currently doing the program at my high school and its super fun to see someone else out there doing it. A lot of the other tips contain good advice, doing pushups and pullups often (before bed or after waking up) is a great way to improve. That...

I had a situation somewhat similar to yours first semester sophomore year. I've definitely felt the mental health aspect of the application process, it's kind of a slog to get through it all. Huge props to you for handling it all and moving forward. Feel free to shoot me a PM if you want (I was...

Thanks.

Just to check - is there any benefit to bringing extra shirts? Or would they rather us wear the shirts and polos provided?

I got my acceptance notice yesterday. Session 1!

Try calling admissions, I also wasn't able to schedule a visit through the website and had to do it through phone.

Anyone have an idea of the significance of high school departmental honors for the West Point application? In my case I've earned history honors Freshman and Sophomore year.

In my own case it is an anaphylactic reaction, however I am not particularly sensitive to Brazil Nuts (i.e. before I was diagnosed with an allergy I would eat out of a mixed can of nuts where Brazil Nuts were present).

So you have heard that USMA will waive Tree Nut allergies? I am an applicant for the WP class of 2023 and I have a Brazil Nut allergy so this definitely hits close to home.

Echoing Midwest Dad. I think it all depends on what your particular MOCs require for their applications. On my Congresswoman's website it states that she does superscore SATs/ACTs and that she requires all attempts of standardized tests to be sent to her office.

Thank you for such a detailed response.

Thank you for the information and tips!

You mentioned that there's a bunch of different leadership positions that you can run for and take on at Boys/Girls State. If one was to be successfully elected to a position, say Governor, would they then be obligated to continue performing certain duties to the State program after the week is...
