Hi all, My sister is applying to the STEM program this summer. I'm not familiar with the process, so I was hoping that someone who understands it could answer a couple of questions. 1) Is admission to the program rolling? The application deadline is April 15th and her interest in service...

These threads suck. http://www.navysports.com/sports/m-footbl/spec-rel/032514aab.html Please keep the McKamey and Naval Academy Family in your thoughts and prayers. We're going through a hard time this semester. Also, please pray for 3/C Hans Loewen. He's still in critical condition after a...

Hi all, my brother just received his appointment to Kings Point. I couldn't be more proud of him. I was searching through usmma.edu and couldn't find any good information on Indoc/plebe summer/Induction Day/Recognition Day or whatever KP calls it. The website needs a serious update. Is there...

Hi folks, my brother just received a nomination to USMMA from our House Rep. The letter read: "Congratulations on your outstanding accomplishments and superb credentials that have earned you the primary nomination". He called and the staff said that he was identified as their #1 pick for...

For those who haven't seen it already, CBS recently put out an article highlighting the top 25 state colleges with the "happiest freshmen" - based solely on retention rates. It's been floating around Facebook for a while so I thought it might be worth sharing here...

Hi all, My brother is a HS junior who applied to NASS. We have yet to hear anything back from admissions so we're hoping for the best, but expecting the worst. I've read that many juniors received CVW invitations after being denied from SS. He's already been accepted to USAFASS and Boys...

Cornyn's office called me earlier today during practice. I wasn't able to reply to the voicemail that instructed me to call back until they were closed. I'll call first thing tommorow, but this is a little nerve wracking, esp. since a few friends from Boys State got their noms today. :confused...

I'm a high school senior and I've recently been awarded the NROTC scholarship to The Citadel. It was my #1 choice because of the athletic program. I have heard from a current midshipman that the best way to go is by joining the Navy Reserve and going through RTC prior to matriculation week...

I've recently been awarded the NROTC scholarship to The Citadel. It was my #1 choice because of their athletic program. I have heard that the best way to go is by joining the Navy Reserve and going through RTC prior to matriculation week. Is this even possible? If so, can someone shed some...

Hi, I was hoping someone could shed some light into this... I know this subforum isn't frequented as often as the SA subforums but it is the best place for my question. I am a Navy Junior ROTC and I have a nomination to both the USAFA and the USNA. My nomination to the USNA is through my...

The application states To what extent will these be used by the admissions board? Thanks

The new SAT scores just came in so I figured it was the high time for me to post this. I hope this thread will not only provide an indication on how I can improve my profile but also, through the responses provided, help others as well. :smile: I'm a high school junior (incoming class of...

The NROTC application instructs me to send reference requests to my SCHOOL address (The application led me to believe that LoRs are written by hand, or at least the information to write them is not digital). However, with this year drawing to a close, LoR requests wouldn't get to the school...

My high school junior year is winding down. I've seen similiar posts in different academy forums, but none specific to ROTC scholarships. My goal is to get my scholarship applications completed before my senior year begins. However, what will I need from my school before summer vacation...

From what I am aware, all three big SA's have a D1 precision smallbore team but I have not seen a single thread concerning rifle at the academies. I've shot competitively since the age of 8, starting out with BB-gun and then moving up to Sporter air rifle when I turned 15 (Sporter = gun~...

I am a high school junior pursuing a nomination/appointment to the USNA or USAFA. I have already been accepted in the AFA SS and will shortly be applying to the USNA SS. After taking a look at the application to the naval academy SS, I have noted that it asks about a HISTORY of asthma (as...

I'm a high school junior seriously looking into a service academy, preferable the USAFA. A former classmate is now at the USAFA class of 2014. We've conversed several times and she's been especially helpful in outlining the admissions process. However, I need clarification on a few pointers she...

Hello all, I googled "service academy help" and this was one of the first sites that came up. After taking a look around, I find these forums are extremely helpful. I've been anticipating on attending a SA for a couple years now. Since I'm a high school junior going into the Spring semester...
