admissions

I'm almost 16 and entering 10th grade this year. I'm very interested in trying to apply to USAFA. I am in the process of working to be able to solo by the end of the year and have found my ALO (have not contacted yet, but currently writing an email). There is a open house thing for interested...

Hey all, Does anyone know when the admissions board meets for the first time? I thought it was around August 1 but wasn't sure. And when will they send the first LOAs out? I was pretty motivated after NASS and completed my online app and am now just waiting for a nomination. Thank you!

Is it required to take the PSAT & PLAN to apply to USAFA? If yes, are these tests available in other countries?

I'm still an incoming sophomore but planning to apply for USAFA once I graduate. I scanned through the application steps but some parts are not too clear or specified. In the eligibility step, I actually don't know where I am categorized. Whether I am an international student or not, because I...

It is my dream to attend the Naval Academy. I want to be the best officer I can be. I am extremely determined. For football I lost 70 pounds in three months to move from defensive line to linebacker, and I want to be a SEAL. I am still nervous about getting accepted obviously. I want your input...

Hello, I am a current 20 year old engineering student at a public university. I had a rather drastic change in my perspective after both having become a very strong Christian and having educated myself much more on the origin of the conflicts in the Middle East, in particular: works by William...

I'm entering my junior year in high school, and I am wondering when can/should I fill out the candidate questionnaire? Now? Does it not physically open until a certain date?

Hi- I'm a soph at highschool trying to raise his chances at getting an appointment. Currently I have almost all A's except one blaring problem on my transcript. A big fat D for Math in 1st semester of this school year. I was going through depression at the time, and the teacher was using a...

So far I am in the Air Force Academy Summer Seminar, but because I am in (literally) the most competitive district for congressional nominations, I'm also applying to the Coast Guard Academy. I applied to AIM a while ago, and when I asked my mom which week I should put in for she told me I...

Hi, I'm new here and currently I'm an International Candidate for Admission. Two weeks ago I was contacted by the admissions officer and was told to send immunization record, color vision testing and dental records. Is that a good sign? Or they require that for everybody before considering the...

I just want to start off by saying, I'm new to this forum, so I'm not sure if I'm accidentally posting to the wrong category and messing up a thousand years worth of tradition or something. Anyways, I'm currently a sophomore at the end of his year who just started caring about performance in...

Hi, I am a freshman in high school and have been considering applying to the USNA in my junior year. I do have some setbacks though. I am homeschooled, and have been for 4 years. While that may make my chances harder to get in, I am ahead in math (wrapping up algebra 2 for the year), English...

@GlacierNote, you are correct that U.S. Citizenship is not a requirement to attend NASS, but must be attained prior to I-Day. For Class of 2021 that is 29 Jun 2017. Are your parents applying for U.S. Citizenship, or are you waiting to turn 18 to start the process yourself? There are many...

I, as well as many others I'm sure, am curious to see what our odds are of getting accepted to the United States Naval Academy. So this thread will serve as a question answer forum where people can put what they have going for them in terms of what is going on there application. Hopefully some...

I'm a very anxious junior in high school right now, and can't wait to get to college. My top two places I would love to go to are the Air Force Academy, and perhaps the Naval Academy (Air Force being my top). Like I said, I'm a girl who is junior in high school, and here are some of my stats...

Hello! I'm currently a senior in high school and would like to obtain a nomination for USNA this coming year. I applied for nominations from a congressman and two senators in the fall but I did not receive any. The main thing I have to improve is my SAT scores and some grades. I have recently...

Hello! I am currently an AFROTC freshman reapplying to USAFA. This past winter, I received a stress fracture in my leg that has since healed 100%. However, under DoDMERB guidelines, any stress fracture (single or recurrent) is disqualifying. AFROTC gave me a waiver overnight (literally)...

Will USNA Take one SAT score from the "old" SAT and one from the new format to Superscore?
