Hello all, I am currently applying to both the USMA and USAFA for class of 2026. I am currently interested in a career in the medical field. As of right now, I am trying to find the best option between USAFA and USMA in terms of chances of being able to enter Medical School right out of the academy. Looking at both academies’ websites, USMA allows up to 2% of their class to enter Medical School immediately after graduation (roughly 20 spots), whereas USAFA allows up to 18 graduates to attend medical school. I was wondering if anyone has any insight into the competitiveness for these slots.
*Note- I am aware that there is a chance that I may not receive a spot. I have been given the advice to not attend an academy if all I want to do is become a physician. I am more than happy to become an officer and serve before attending graduate school, I am just curious about the chances of going straight to medical school.
