Thanks for your quick response. I am aware of the Calc and Physics requirements. I've taken both in HS, but was not able to place out, since I earned 4's in both and the new school requires 5's on the AP's. I'll be taking those courses again. I do love history, but I am definitely a STEM kind of...

I was recently admitted to a top 20 university as a transfer student and will be participating in NROTC. I had a few majors that I was considering, one of them being Econ, another being History. At this time, I will be pursuing a history degree due to the way the curriculum lines up with my...

I would probably remove it after I land my first job. At this point, since I am a college freshman, how would it appear to a prospective employer or even if I decide to transfer to another school after freshman year?

Although I did not gain admission to the Naval Academy, I did have the privilege of attending summer seminar. My question is, should I note this anywhere on my civilian resume going forward, under activities.

I appreciate all the feedback. I knew there had to be a way for the MOC's to access this info. It makes sense now that no one asked me about my medical qualification etc. They already knew or were about to know. Would being "medically qualified" in light of other strong application criteria...

I just interviewed with 2 senators and 1 congressman. I am glad the interviews are behind me! But I have a specific question that I can't seem to find an answer to on this forum. I realize all the information that I or my high school submits is available to the MOC's but do they communicate with...

Thanks to all for the advice. I emailed each MOC last night and politely let them know that my senior year courses were not listed on the transcript and I also included a list of senior courses. They may ask for an updated transcript, which I will gladly provide, or may just accept the email. I...

This has become very interesting. I had a senatorial interview yesterday, and while in front of the committee, was informed that they did not have a list of my senior classes. I verbally informed them of the classes I was taking, but walked away perplexed. Upon speaking with my guidance...

I have been alerted that I have 2 interviews, one with each of our state senators, but no word from our local congressman. A few classmates have interviews with the congressman and one senator. I probably should not read into this, but does it matter? Are they just spreading everyone around? I...

Thanks to all for the input. I agree, and won't be saying a word about my service academy application to any civilian school. When I told my parents what the advisor said, they were not surprised. Their response was that our large public school in particular just pushes the masses.

As a candidate to a service academy (USMA), I am aware that my chances of acceptance are small, regardless of being qualified. And although I want a service academy more than anything, I am applying to civilian schools as well. I know that I cannot apply ED to any school and had a long chat with...

While attending NASS, I missed an entire week of school. The policy at our HS is a zero for every physical education/health class missed, but it can be made up by attending another class later in the semester. I missed 2. When I returned from NASS, I was overwhelmed with work, which I tackled...
