What does the application for S.L.E. look like? What questions are asked and what do you have to supply in terms of test scores and G.P.A.? Additionally, what are optimal S.L.E. test scores when applying in terms of the S.A.T.? Thank you so much for your help!

I have taken both my SAT and ACT, chose to send my scores to the USNA, but when I check my application status my scores don't appear. It has been weeks since my ACT score came back and my SAT came back on the 12th.

I have attended Summer Seminar and wish to continue my USNA application. My high school GPA brings my rank to 1/50 and I am on two varsity sports, one of which I was captain. I hold leadership positions in the music department of my school and volunteer through my youth group. (These are the...

Running Start/ Chances of getting ROTC scholarship What are my chances of getting an NROTC(MO) scholarship? My goal is to become a commissioned officer but money is tight. I'm going to graduate in 2018 from my high school and receive an AA and an AB from a nearby community college. My ultimate...

I applied to NASS but was denied, I have a 4.3 GPA and reported my 1380 PSAT scores on the NASS app. Now that it was submitted as a prelim app, should I email USNA my newest SAT (1450) to maximize my chances as becoming an official applicant? Am I even allowed to update my prelim app? Thanks!

I took my ACT and SAT in January and I received a 22 and a 1030. I'm aiming for a 30 on my ACT to be able to get an appointment to the academy. As of my grades, my gpa is a 3.33 and I have mostly a's and b's. I am also taking an AP class this year and multiple honors classes. I am also taking...

What are the best resources to prep for the big standardized tests? We are from an absolutely tiny school system- my son will graduate High School in a class of about 60 kids- there are not a ton of opportunities available to us through the school. My son is super bright (ranked #2, 4.0 GPA.)...

I'm a current junior who is tentatively applying to two service academies- my family is a Navy fam so I will be applying to USNA, and USCGA because their mission appeals to me. Lately I've been really worried about how my academics will stack up. In early December I emailed the track coach for...

If you're a junior who is extremely interested in competing for an appointment to the Naval Academy like me, you know that the NASS application opened just a few days ago. Quoting from the Summer Seminar site, "PLEASE NOTE: The application is NOT first come, first served. Please gather all of...

Hello, I have only taken ACTs, I have taken three plus writing, and my highest overall score was a 28. There are no more ACTs offered in January, and I was unable to take the December ACT because I had prior commitments that day. I recently found out there will be an SAT in January, and I want...

Hello all, I had a question about how admissions scores the SAT. Do they only look at the composite score (As in Reading + Math), or do they look at each subject individually? And if so, is the math more heavily weighted? Thanks!

Hi everyone, hope you are doing well. My school doesn't rank students, and the Gpa scale is very strange. Ive heard that westpoint doesn't look at gpa as much as Class rank, but because my school doesn't rank, how would WP analyze my academics? I would assume that they would just look at my act...

Hi all, I'm a 2010 USNA Graduate and submarine officer who manages NUPOC Accessions for the Navy. NUPOC is an alternative commissioning source to ROTC and USNA that functions quite differently and focuses on engineers and other STEM majors (predominantly, but not exclusively). The program...

I have recently applied to the USNA and my SAT scores are average (1260). Does anyone who has been accepted already know of the SAT scores you applied with?

Hi everyone, I've bought the USAFA candidate book and have been reading through it and had questions. I wanted to know if I am prepared, and how to prepare for the academics at the Academy. If anyone could point out my strong and weak points in my Academics and Physical Fitness then I would...

Is there a point to submitting SAT/ACT scores to the USNA and USMA if you have not been nominated yet? Or even broader, is there a point to even filling out your application if you havent been nominated yet? You cant be accepted without a nomination so wouldnt you just have wasted the money...

Hello all, I was wondering how much AFOQT factors in for SFT selection (and commissioning if that). Also, is AFOQT comparable to SAT/ACT? Would I need to worry if I got a high ACT single-sitting score? I'm taking the AFOQT this upcoming semester at the detachment. Thanks!

Hello everyone, I have just reviewed my preliminary application. I just want to know if I have to convert my new SAT scores back to the old for the SAT score section of the app? The application asks for SAT critical reading and math, but the new SAT is reading/writing evidence and math. Please...

I have played 3 sports every year since freshman year and I am currently a rising senior. I am secretary of the National honor society and a member of the science club. I got a 1360 on the NEW SAT out of 1600. My weighted gpa is a 4.7 and unweighted is a 4.0. I would like to know if I stand...

Hello, I've recently received my SAT score and received a score of 1100/1600. I know it's not great, but it was my first time and I wanted to try taking the SAT cold. Should I submit my preliminary application now knowing that USNA super scores all SAT scores? Also another reason why I'm asking...
