"A short time back, a high school student contacted me and said he was interested in attending the USMMA, and asked if I could describe the place a little for him. Being a recent graduate, I certainly have a lot to say about it, and once I started writing I discovered just how much that was. My email to him eventually turned into a long letter, which I would like to share with you. I had a lot of questions myself before starting at Kings Point, and I think there are a lot of gray areas, especially regarding post-graduation careers, living aboard ships at sea, and life at school beyond freshman year which are not well addressed to prospective candidates. So, I tried to compress a comprehensive and informative overview of Kings Point and what it means to go there into a few pages. I hope you find it helpful."
