The Prepsters are given a list of choices and they provide their choice ranking. Then the academy takes that into account, but ultimately decides. Often it's based on academic needs of the student (I.E. cyber majors go to UMB), athletics, recruited sport (or activity) and geographical location. The list/questionnaire comes in a couple weeks from now, with placement 5/1 (was the goal for this class) but can be as late as 5/31.How does the academy decide who goes to NAPS, GMC, Marion, Boston, etc?
Honestly, I do not. My understanding is all prepsters have the same timely turnaround to resubmit their choices. I really believe it comes down to needs of the service and academic needs (or reason they were recommended for prep vs direct) of the particular student.Do you think the earlier you send the paperwork in the better chance you have of getting your choice?
Track and field?I believe They also try to keep sports teams together - from my understanding, different teams go to different programs. I heard football usually goes to NAPS and baseball MMI.
I’m not sure about T&F.Track and field?
And sometimes they are not able to participate in sports at their prep school. My daughter was not able to but was thankful for this because the school work was so much more than she was used to.I believe They also try to keep sports teams together - from my understanding, different teams go to different programs.

I would agree with focusing the Prep year on academics! Good thing to point out!And sometimes they are not able to participate in sports at their prep school. My daughter was not able to but was thankful for this because the school work was so much more than she was used to.
I have heard NAPS.I’m not sure about T&F.
Pole vault? Lots T&F don't have vault as it's fairly expen$ive.MMI also has cross-country as well as indoor and outdoor track.
NAPS currently has a couple pole vaulters.Pole vault? Lots T&F don't have vault as it's fairly expen$ive.
