Can anyone else answer this question. This is the non answer answer I was hoping not to get. I know there are people who graduate from USMMA that get offered flight school right out of the academy. I know there are some that go directly to Navy, AF, Marine flight school. Are any offers ever...

OK, I am just trying to get a little information here and have gotten some conflicting information from other sources. I know there are pilot slots available for USMMA for the various military branches. My question is does that include Coast Guard pilot slots as well? Just asking because I...

It is definitely worth the visit if you have not already visited previously, if you can swing it with missing 3 days of school. Even if your sure this is where you want to go it’s still worth checking it out before you actually attend the academy. You’ll either love it or hate it. Either way it...

DS USMMA Class of 2024

Sorry I thought this was a post in the USMMA section not USMA. Feel free to remove it.

My DS is class of ‘24 and if I recall correctly in all the paperwork that had to be done before INDOC they wanted wisdom teeth removed before reporting to USMMA. I believe the reason being that you need to have them out before your first sea term which is during your 3rd class year. Depending...

Sea year at USMMA is broken up between your sophomore and junior year. 4 months during your sophomore year and 8 months your junior year. Sophomore year you probably won’t have much of a choice in the ships you sail on, you are pretty much assigned to them. Junior year you may be able to put in...

In most cases if you are the principal nominee, as long as you are fully qualified, academically, physically, and medically, you should receive an appointment. I believe USNA can override a principal nomination and select another candidate from the slate but I believe the other academies are...

A nomination is not a guarantee. You must have a nomination to receive an appointment, but just because you have a nomination does not guarantee you will receive an appointment. As for nominations to multiple academies, I can only speak for the state we live in which is PA. My DS went through...

According to the USMMA website: Academic Information Request. The information requested includes official transcripts and a school profile. https://www.usmma.edu/admissions/8-complete-your-online-application Most if not all the information you need to apply to USMMA can be found on the...

So are you saying that if you applied to USMA, but did not even apply for an ROTC scholarship, you may still be awarded on?

Update 27 to accepted

As @shiner pointed out it is a completely different process, but it is a great route to take. It is my understanding that those on a Falcon scholarship, attend a year of prep school at one of the approved schools and as long as they keep a certain GPA throughout the year and stay out of...

According to the list of codes on the DODMERB site, this is a remedial code that does not require a doctor's appointment. My DS had one of these as well in his process. Not the same code but a remedial code. Normally from my understanding and from his experience, it was just additional...

DS just got a call from his Congressman's office yesterday, informing him that he had received an appointment to USMMA. His portal still shows App on File, which I am sure will change in a few day. From what I understand, the academy gives the nominating source a few days to make the...

Thanks. DS was so excited yesterday when his congressman's office called him to let him know he had an appointment. Looking forward to Kings Point.

Application is complete. DS even contacted his admissions officer to verify there was nothing outstanding. And his DODMERB has been complete and qualified since summer. Thanks.
