Questions for the people who have gone to NASS before Is there a lot of running during NASS? I can run of course but not run fast (a 9 minute mile) so i’m a little worried about that If anyone else is going to nass feel free to ask questions below and people can answer them!!

I’ve seen a bunch of posts about what to expect but most are kinda from years ago so I wanted to make a new more current one for anyone who has any questions, including myself!! I’m going there to experience what it is like to be a part of usna and just hoping to have a good time but one major...

When will they send denials to NASS? Is there still a chance, if my DS hasn't received an acceptance yet?

Hello everyone, I got accepted for the Virtual session, however, due to some factors I won't be able to make it work. Would anyone be willing to swap their A or B session for my C? Thank you so much.

I am a high school junior and just recently started looking into USNA around mid-February. I know it's kind of late now to be improving my stats to even have a chance of getting in, but looking into the academy and seeing everything they offer lit something inside of me and it's making me a...

I applied to USMA SLE when it came out on the 1st, and I got in on the 9th. Is it usual to be accepted this quick? I also applied to USAFA and USNA Summer Seminar and still not heard back yet. Should I be worried?

Hello and Happy New Year to all. DS is preparing his essays, and he and I were debating character counts. Essay 1 is 3000 characters max. Essay 2 is 1500 characters max. I'm turning to this knowledgeable and more experienced group to help us settle the debate - does character count include OR...

Hey everyone! As of 2/26/2023 I have a green qualified box in my USNA application saying that I passed the CFA from the summer seminar CFA. I thought I underperformed by a bit while I was there. Is it worth retaking the CFA and aim to get a higher score? Or should I just leave it as it is since...

Hello, As the decision annoucements for NASS are approaching this week (supposedly) I have read elsewhere on this thread that applicants recieved a confirmation email that their application was recieved. Curious, I searched in my inbox but could not find anything around the time when I applied...

Hi All, I submitted my USNA Summer Seminar application on March 27th and haven't received word about it yet. I was wondering if this is normally how long it takes for review of the application. Also, I know the responses in the Summer Seminar app carry over to the Preliminary Application, but I...

Hi, I’m applying for the USAFA summer seminar and I saw that while it says the application is due on Jan 15th, my application says it’s due on the 22nd. Is this just a tech error or do I really have nine more days to do this? Additionally, is it going to be impossible to submit an application...

Does anyone know if the Air Force Academy offers attendees of Summer Seminar an opportunity to take the CFA ? Thanks

Just found out a few days ago that I've been accepted into the USNASS, wondering what to expect and what I should prepare for before! Ive been preparing for USMA for so long now, my knowledge of the Navy is a little pathetic. Any tips or expectations would be great!

Hello, this month I was accepted into USAFA, USNA summer seminars and SLE. I totally didn't expect it either, I kinda went on a limb with my 3.78 GPA and no athletic or barely any leadership positions. But anyways I accepted USAFA seminar because it's only $20. I didn't get the scholarship for...

I am applying to USNA Class of 2026. I applied to the Naval Academy's Summer Seminar on January 5th. I understand that applications close March 31st. Will decisions be sent out by April? Or when can we expect to hear back?

I sent my application for the Summer Seminar the first day it was open (as I’m sure many other exciting C/O2026 candidates did). I have not yet heard back a decision either way about my admissions status. Does anyone have an idea as to when I can expect a decision? It is not life or death, but...

Hi friends, I recently submitted my applications for USNA, USMA, and USAFA summer seminars. It's my understanding that for USNA and USMA, these also count as the preliminary application, and have to be reviewed and accepted in order for me to be deemed eligible. On what grounds are these...

I currently work as a consultant at a marketing firm and after looking at the summer seminar personal statement, I was wondering if my job falls under "any activities, groups, conferences" that are "STEM-related [science, technology, engineering, math], leadership, etc". Furthermore, a good...

Hello all, I'm curious as to if acceptance to last year's Summer Seminar has any impact on the competitiveness to gain an appointment or be qualified by the admissions board. Does anyone know any statistics or have knowledge on this? Are people that are accepted to Summer Seminar have a higher...
