Hi guys, today I have found out that my file has been closed for the class of 2027 to USMA. It’s more than likely due to the improper recording of my pull-ups. I will be doing everything in my power tomorrow to call the RC and to try to figure out if I can still compete for an appointment. Unfortunately my FFR told me that he’s never heard of an extension for a video after the admissions deadline and that more than likely I would have to reopen my application for the class of 2028 to compete for an appointment.
For some background I first started my journey wanting to go to West Point. I found my inspiration during the pandemic and prepared rigorously to go there. Over the course of the next few years I ended up changing my mind after a CVW at USNA. I have since received a principal nomination to USNA and I have received an appointment.
The main concern that I have picked USNA because of the academy itself and not the service after. To this day I still see myself the most as an infantry officer. From the looks of it West Point is the best place to do that.
Long story short I have three questions.
1) Would I still be able to compete for a prep school appointment for this admissions cycle?
2) Should I do a year of self-prep at MMI or a AROTC program at a state university?
3) Should I just accept my appointment to USNA and figure out what I want to do in the Navy/Marine Corps when the time comes?
