If you’re a junior, your scores aren’t even counted towards your application.

I'm really not sure why you are hostile in this message, but I will give you the benefit of the doubt in saying I was also a disgruntled plebe that didn't understand the system at one point. Many others already pointed this out for me, but my intention was to shift the focus of this incoming...

Yes we do. Don’t worry about when it starts or what it entails. Your concern should be on getting through your summer, not the preparations behind it. Trust that you will be in capable hands.

https://www.usna.edu/PermitToReport/_files/ptrs/0.B._updated_checklist_2027.pdf That is the Permit-to-Report Checklist for '27, so it may be slightly different than your son's, but that's a good place to see everything you'll probably need in one place. Keep everything in one neat folder and...

Just so the candidates are aware, this is not just a USAFA issue. I meandered over here from the USNA sub-forum because I saw the title and we are experiencing a very similar problem at USNA. The standards, traditions, and events that make USNA great are all much more lax. I'm not going to share...

It’s not that deep. Have your mom sign the sheet.

The whole “every mid has to do sports” thing is really blown out of proportion. Yes, that is technically true, but those sports can consist of intramural cross country, where you don’t have to show up to any practices or meets. You can definitely get by without being involved in sports, although...

Yes, but if you get a 10 minute run time you probably shouldn’t be submitting that. There might not be information on ‘passing’ but there is info on what is generally considered good.

You can also just ask your plebe to not submit your score if you fail it. It’s not a big deal.

I’m a cyber major, and it’s definitely possible, you would just need to validate a few classes to free up your matrix. I can’t speak to double E, but I do know it’s considered a very difficult major on the yard. Even if you don’t minor, you can still take 1-3 courses in Japanese as your HUMM/SS elective.

Buff chix is overrated, crispitos >>>

Hey man, just wanted to say it’s definitely not over until you get the rejection from the academy. You still technically have the vice president nomination, and your sources can overturn their decision if you happen to get an LOA. I’m not gonna lie to you, both of those are slim pickings, but...

They never asked for my senior grades or my final transcripts. You’re in the clear academically if you have an LOA, assuming you don’t fail any classes

It will work out by June 30th, 2024. I can promise as someone who went through the same process fairly recently, chill out. You’re gonna pop a blood vessel.

Took me two months to get my waiver. It’s a nerve wracking process

Post-plebe summer shower was one of the best of my life, although post-Herndon shower does top it. Guess you’ll just have to wait and see

No, they’ll choose it later in the academic year along with their crest

Me and some of my friends say it ironically but yeah usually just Bancroft

It’s not a big deal. Don’t worry about it.
