Why do you want to attend a Service Academy?
My father enlisted in the Air Force almost immediately after high school. He spent the next twenty years dedicated to serving and protecting his country and still carries that drive well after his retirement. Since early childhood, I’ve known my father to be a man of great success and merit. It was always apparent to me that I wanted to follow my father’s footsteps in terms of success, but it wasn’t until sophomore year that I realized I wanted to pursue a career in the military as he did. The topic of service academies was foreign to me until junior year, though after I learned about them, I immediately became enamored by the idea of attending an academy. By being attending a service academy, I would be granted the best opportunities to develop in academics, leadership, and career.
The education offered at service academies is world-class and incredibly prestigious. Each academy offers various majors and minors that prepare and develop cadets for success in leadership and their military career. While at the academy, cadets must not only focus on academics but also on training and leadership obligations. The challenge of needing to balance my studies and other obligations is incredibly attractive to me because I believe it will instill in me greater values of responsibility and self-discipline.
Those who attend service academies are of the highest caliber and are outstanding individuals from our nation. Attending a military academy is extremely appealing to me because it means I would be surrounded by individuals who share the same integrity and drive as me. I have a strong desire to develop and assume a leadership position, which is something academies strive to teach. As a leader in my school’s marching band, I commit to teaching the importance of teamwork, communication, respect, and integrity. I come from a very diverse background and have many skills and experiences that will help me be a successful leader. I believe that these traits/characteristics would enable me to become a successful leader in and out of the academy.
Attending a service academy means I would be a part of a prestigious organization, receive a world-class education, and be taught skills to help me serve my nation to the best of my capability. I want to attend because I would have access to academic programs not offered in other colleges. I want to be challenged and taught to be the best version of myself so that I will succeed in leadership positions. But most of all, I want to attend to receive the best training to serve and better my nation. If I were to be accepted I would push myself to work my hardest to succeed and to represent the people.
