Hey everyone. Right now, Im a little confused. I realize that I need to include 3 letters of recommendations for one of my nomination applications. I have one application already, but the other two applications are on the Common App for all the other colleges that I plan to apply to. In order...

How much will having been arrested and then cited for something tangentially related to the reason for the arrest dampen my chances for admission? I was arrested on suspicion of criminal damage to property. The police determined that I was in no way at fault or legally culpable for the criminal...

Hi, my name is Briana, and I am a prospective student for the Academy. I have been to the Summer Seminar and have been approved to candidate status just a while ago. I am very serious about entering the USAFA. I've gathered most of LORs, and I'm currently filling out apps for my congressmen...

Hello, I have a couple questions about what counts as a sport. I am homeschooled and looking to attend the USNA. I also live on a 56 acre ranch in the middle of nowhere, and there aren't much opportunities for sports. I am in a 4H group, and I am part of their sharpshooters club, where I do...

Particularly languages like Arabic, Russian, Chinese, etc. I'm wondering because Im Russian-American and Im fluent in reading, writing, and speaking the language. This is demonstrated in my resume as Ive had 3 years of AP Russian at my school and scored a perfect score (5) on the AP Russian...

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...

I am currently applying for the USNA Class of 2021 and am struggling with my personal statement. I have already sent it to English teachers for grammatical checks, but was hoping for some content feedback. Can send it through email. Any feedback would be appreciated!!

I know West Point is big on your class ranking, but my school doesn't rank...they don't even tell us which percent of the class we're in. How will this affect the way my application appears to the admissions board at West Point? Also random side question. When does the application open? 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...

Hey guys if anybody has any time i just wanted to get a ballpark of whether or not it's even worth the application process. I have been an officer for 2 years in my marching band which is a nationally ranking band that has won tons of awards 30 on ACT 55 out of 507 in class 3.86 GPA No...

Hi, I am an upcoming freshman and am thinking about applying to usma after I get my Associate Degree. I have received a ROTC scholarship so I may be able to get a PMS nom. My grades were not the best and my ACT score was a 29 which would make me barely competitive if at all. If I participate in...

My high school started offering the ASVAB. I received an overall score of 85. If I added this on my Coast Guard Application will it possibly help?

I was just accepted to their AIM program which has given me the confidence that I'm doing something right, but I figured I'd still ask. I have a 4.0/4.1 cumulative GPA. I've taken biology, environmental science, and chemistry and will be taking honors physics next year. For math I've taken alg...

Hello everyone, I know this may have been answered previously, but have not yet been able to find the exact answer I have been searching for. So, I am a junior in H.S and and ready to send in my preliminary application to the Naval Academy. The app asks for my highest SAT and ACT scores. What do...

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, im a 16 year old junior and will be turning 17 soon. To join the Coast Guard Auxiliary one must be 17 years old. Would joining the CG auxiliary, for the 7 months i'm eligible before I apply to the coast guard class of 2021, help my chances significantly or at all?

I just started my NROTC application and was hoping to get some comments or suggestions for my essay in response to the question, "Why do I want to be a Naval Officer?" I aspire to become a naval officer for a few reasons. I, first, have always had a genuine desire to serve my country. Now...
