So I don't currently have any tattoos, nor do I have any plans to get inked, but in the photos of Plebe Summer, I have seen several of the plebes with tattoos, some of them very large. I am curious, what are the rules for tattoos in the academy?

Hello, I am applying to several academies this year and so I am also thinking about OCS as a plan B. Could someone please answer a few questions about OCS for me. 1) Is it possible to be denied entry into OCS? 2) How soon after enlisting could I go into OCS? 3) What courses would I take at OCS...

Hey there everyone, I am applying to the class of 2026, and I am looking to make a "checklist" of sorts of everything I need to get done. If those who have applied in previous years, their parents, or BGOs, or anyone else who knows could tell me what I need to include, I would be most...

Hey, I am looking to apply to a SA, but my plan B is an ROTC scholarship. I am kind of drowning in information. Could someone please explain to me the process for application for an ROTC scholarship? If you could include things like dates, deadlines, GPA, Test Scores, and any thing else I would...

I am a homeschooled junior. I was recently invited to attend NASS ( I accepted). However, I feel that my application is not that strong. I have about a 3.5-6 gpa, I scored 1380 on the SAT ( I will be taking it again), but the area in which I lack is ECA and sports. My family has never really...
