I received my TWE today and I want opinions on reapplying. Will it be the same having a professor send information directly to USMA as it was for my senior year in high school. Is the CFA done again the same way? Any advice on anything will be greatly appreciated

This is a "sticky" note for reapplying to USNA, but it is so full of great advice and wisdom, that it is worth reading. Much of it applies equally to West Point.

A lot of it will roll over in your application. I did my CFA with the same PE teacher that did it the first time. Also I just needed to get 2 new SOEs from professors in college. It’s not too difficult to reapply. Worst part was redoing all the nomination applications
My DS reapplied to USMA and they kept all the info from his previous application (USAFA and USNA didn't). He did have to redo the CFA and videos, they also requested 2 LOS from college and transcripts. There was a section to add college activities and he may have edited his essays but I can't remember. He tried to do as much the summer before college but some spilled into the fall semester, so I'm not sure what he finished up then. It was a fairly easy process. Good luck!
I re-applied this year and it's the same process like you said, just with college professors sending your info, CFA and everything else is exactly the same. Only difference will be the extra info you have to put on resume/activities that you do over the next year.
