Cadre aren't going to care if your socks are super high. They just care if your running light and pen can fit and that you're not constantly asking to pick them up because they keep falling out. I've seen people with socks literally covering their knees which is not necessary. Mid to upper calf...

Sorry to burst some people's bubble, but no one on this site cares about any of this. This site is primarily for applicant to ask questions to learn more about the academy. I don't think this thread filled with bickering is going to help anyone. Everyone can get off their soapbox and focus on...

I'm not disagreeing with you. Just because I have shared some of the not great aspects of the academy, doesn't mean you automatically have to go to the defensive position. Look at the academy's website or their youtube videos, life just isn't like that anymore and that's fine. What's done had to...

Guess information on a forum is a big no no, sorry. Message says mods have to reapprove it, not deleted. Guess they are active after all.

Thanks, but you telling to keep my chin up isn't going to solve all of my problems. I've been through harder things, and I'll get through this. Yes, others are struggling. The whole world is struggling. I'm just letting prospective applicants get a different picture.

A good perspective, and I think it is needed, but at the end of the day you're not here in the barracks and feel the defeat and lack of hope running rampant. I believe senior leadership is working themselves to the bone to try to help us and keep this school running. And while we will complain...

Fine, then I'll speak about it then. Morale has tanked these past couple of days. We had classes canceled Friday because there were so many positive cases that they had to move cadet out of the first floor of Chase hall and into other rooms, sometimes putting three people into cadets rooms...

Why does this post keep getting deleted? They have valid points and are being honest about the situation here. Prospective applicants should know what is really happening at the academy.

No, it's not block scheduling. You meet for your class at the same time every day you have it, which depends on the number of credits it's worth. Classes are typically 50 minutes long but can also be 2 or 3 hours depending on the class. It boils down to how many credits each class is worth...

1. I think for incoming classes the average PFE score reported is around 220-225 3. You have to be pretty skilled to be a recruit. I would say that in high school you have to have been a decent varsity athlete at the minimum. 4. From what I've heard from the 3rd class, cyber is a new major so...

My GPA was ok, like a 3.5ish unweighted. What saved me was my 1400 SAT. Up until the middle of junior year I had decided to just go to my state school like almost everyone in my senior class, but I took a far right turn and decided my one mission was to go to USCGA. I had no leadership to show...

I'm a 4/c and in high school I was a pretty average student, but somehow managed to get in the Academy. I was never really happy and just coasted through, never really being interested in classes. Now I'm actually happy to go to class and I feel like I actually want to learn. My GPA for last...
