I am assuming that you will be quarantined as the new cadets who tested positive last year were. And if you do test positive, USMA will find a way to make sure you do not miss out on training.

As a plebe white space during the academic day for a workout will most likely be too small. I usually see plebes working out in the evening. This past Academic Year, there were beaverfits/connexes outside of every barracks; however, I am unsure if this will remain the same now that Arvin seems...

I’m breaking my Garmont’s in right now, they feel nice and supportive. I went with them after looking at tons of reviews online.

A friend of mine that I’ve known for 8 years got appointed to USMAPS, we went to different high schools not to far from each other but still keep in touch. Is it possible for us to connect after CBT or would I have to wait another year until they come to USMA? It would be nice to have a familiar...

USMA is most likely getting ready to send out another mass wave of appointments and 3Q letters.

Was DQ’d for history of FAI. In reality, my pediatrician jumped the gun. After visiting two separate orthopedists, they determined that I never had FAI and they could not see any signs of it through imagery. I wrote two personal statements and sent them in along with the reports from the ortho...

Yes, apply. The academies look at the whole person not just a number.

I found out about mid-February.

Just found out that my waiver was granted and that I am now medically qualified. This was the last thing that I needed to be "3Q". I admit that I was caught off guard when I saw the good news. Guess I had become used to opening the portal every week and seeing "Waiver requested". For any future...

Personally, I have not. Can’t speak for others. I submitted back in late Nov, early December and status still shows as board ready. Pretty sure they will be meeting soon though. Good luck to you, I also received an AROTC scholarship.

Hi, this would probably be something you would want to discuss with your admission officer. Waiver appeals are rare but the fact that you want to appeal says a lot about your character. Contact your representative and find out. Good luck!

In my case, I’ve been pretty proactive hoping for the best. It’s been about a month and the USMA waiver authority has not requested any info at all. I’ve sent all documents supporting the waiver at my own will. I know someone posted on here a while back talking about how they were proactive and...

Same happened with me, I had a DQ code back in December and the date changed to 01/06/19. Pending submission of Waiver request for USMA. I’m sure it’s nothing to worry about seeing that USMA has already submitted a waiver request. As long as you don’t see a DQ or Waiver Denied code you shouldn’t...

Thank you! I will draft a general response.

I am rewriting my congressional nomination short essay. It asks "why do you want to attend a service academy ." Should I make a general statement or should my response be focused on my top pick (USMA)?

I am having a similar problem with my math teacher. Unfortunately, my original teacher retired in the middle of the first semester and I have had substitutes since then. I would say, the best thing you could do is contact the academy and hope for the best.

As far as your mode of transportation, there should be a drop-down menu where you can select airplane, bus, train, etc. Your transportation number should be on your ticket. The transportation company should email it to you. If you are having trouble with this, your best bet would be clicking the...

Do not worry about NHS if you are not already in it. Maintain a high GPA and study for the SAT/ACT. You should also prepare for the CFA, a breakdown can be found here . Also, how involved are you at school?

I was told by an instructor at my school that if you are in a JROTC honor unit with distinction, then that instructor is able to nominate you into an academy. Although I am not in JROTC right now, If I were to join next semester could my Instructor nominate me for USMA?
