boys state

Hello! I am currently facing a dilemma on whether to attend Boy's State of NJROTC Leadership Academy. I'll get straight to the point. I have the opportunity to attend Boy's State with a sponser and all of that or attending my area's NJROTC LA. I'm sure everyone here knows what Boy's State is so...

Where should my son list Boys State on application? Extracurricular doesn’t seem right. Thanks!

Greetings, Back in March a USMA Admissions Officer (LT Le) was addressing questions about Boys/Girls State cancellations and he posted the following "If you were selected but it is now cancelled, a letter from the Legion President will suffice for us. Please have it signed, dated, scanned, and...

Hello everyone, I just got accepted into boys state, and my aunt is recommending I run for governor. My question is, is governor the only position that has weight on SA admission? Like if I ran for a smaller position and won would that be beneficial at all- or should I go “all in” for governor...

Hey friends! At my school roughly 4 boys and girls go to “Boys/Girls State” each year total. I will be applying this school year and was curious how to gain leadership at Girls State. Is it divided among /school, /city, or /state? If anybody could explain to me what to expect there (female) at...

Hi, just found out I was accepted to Tennessee's Boy's State today (yay!) are there any tips or advice that anyone can offer? My school hasn't offered a TON of information on the program.

My son is a Junior this year and will be applying to USMA. We are debating on whether or not he should attend Boys State and if it would improve his chances in any way if he already a lot of leadership points. His dad who is a USMA grad and former USMA admissions officer said that it makes no...

Unfortunately my weeks overlap. Which one do you think would give me a better experience and would look better on an application for any college (including USNA, and USAFA)?

I have recently been sponsored by my American Legion post to attend boys state. It has come to my understanding that there are many different positions available at boys state. I was wondering how much weight boys state holds on the application for USMA and which government positions I should...

Obviously, this will be a "what do you think?" kind of question, since there's no way to really know if this would factor favorably for my son or not on his AFA application, but here goes... This spring, his school counselor came to him and said they (the faculty) wanted DS to be the school's...

(moderators, please move this to the appropriate discussion room) Summers sessions (any of em) vs Girls/Boys State? Hypothetically speaking, if a DD/DS were to get accepted to the summer sessions of all the academies AND the Girls/Boys State and there were scheduling (or finance) conflicts...
