    Hi everyone. I am a freshman in college and recently received the TWE from USNA. I'm not planning on reapplying again so I decided to start looking into OCS.

    Application Still Incomplete

    Last week I got my CFA qualified and now everything is checked off on my portal. However, it still says my application is incomplete. Might there actually be something missing or does it just take a bit to update? Thanks.

    Reapplicant Personal Statement

    I've been looking around and have asked a few people but have mostly received mixed responses. I am a college reapplicant and am just about done with my personal statement. Before I submit, I just have one question for everyone. Should my personal statement be a completely new essay, or should I...

    New Congressman Procedures

    My district is changing its congressman in January. Does anyone know what the procedures are for nominations? Do the nominations have to wait until the new congressman takes office to be released or can the current congressman do it before he leaves?

    Questions about an Appointee Admissions Meeting.

    I was lucky enough to receive an appointment last week and today I got an email for an appointee admission meeting next Saturday to meet the admissions team, other appointees, and learn more about USAFA. Does anyone know if this is just a kind of promotional event with information that I've...

    Did the Medical Exams Almost Two Months Ago but Still Nothing in My Portals

    I got both of my medical exams done in early December and both doctors said I passed just fine. However, almost two months later, both my USAFA and USNA portals say that my DoDMERB exam has not been received. Also, my DoDMETS portal says complete. Does this always take a long time or is there...

    Would a CFA That Passed For USAFA Also Pass For USNA?

    I took my CFA for USAFA a few weeks ago and, although I wasn't totally happy with my results, I still passed. I thought a few events weren't great but would they also pass for USNA if I sent them? Thanks in advance.

    Should I Reschedule My Interview?

    My congressional interview is scheduled for December 4th at 9:00 AM. However, my last SAT will be during that time. Would this be a good enough reason to ask to reschedule the interview? I already have a solid SAT score but I would like to get a few more points.

    Quick Acne Question

I have submitted my USNA application over a month ago and have my Dartmouth ED application one click away from being submitted however I'm very torn over whether I should submit it or not.

    Intestine Surgery?

    Hey everyone. When I born I was diagnosed with Ileal Atresia and had surgery at 3 days old. Since then everything has been working as it should and I haven't had any issues. The only noticeable impact is a 10 inch scar across my belly. Is there any chance that this condition/surgery can...

    Who Should I Have Read my Personal Statement?

    I’m just about done with my Personal Statement but I would like to have someone look at it before I submit. I plan on having my English teacher look at it so that he can let me know if I made any grammar mistakes or anything like that. Other than my English teacher, I would also like someone...

    Questions for People With LOAs

    This is probably a weird question but whatever. Those of you who have gotten an LOA, would you mind saying what kind of stuff you had on your application that you think caused you to get the LOA and also would you mind letting me know when you submitted your application? I hope that makes sense...

    Benefits of Submitting Application Early?

    I'm thinking of submitting my application early, as in late August/early September and was wondering if there is really any benefit of doing so. Would it be the same as submitting in December (assuming both applications are the best I can give)?

    Do I Still Have a Chance?

    So from what i've heard, any given congressperson can only have 5 people at each service academy at a time. I found out recently that a kid in my town was recruited to USAFA for sports. Does this mean that I have a very very small chance of getting an appointment now or are there other ways to...
