The email has a link that takes you right to your portal and you can only register through the candidate portal. The dates of 26-30 are the dates they make available. Also received a confirmation email.

Same for my DS. He is attending NASS. He has no experience or exposure to the military based on where we live. Not sure he will complete his application to USMA at this point. He was leaning USNA anyway as far as the SA he would apply to. He was however subsequently invited to visit West...

My DS received this email invite as well.

I agree. I was just saying it seems most schools superscore now.

Many more do than don't these days. It's becoming rare to find schools that don't superscore.

I don't disagree to an extent, but not everything else will ever be equal. Every human being/candidate is different. Personality, leadership traits etc. which will be revealed and discovered throughout the process in interviews etc. ACT is just one number and one factor that obviously needs...

I believe I read somewhere that USNA only focuses on Math and English for ACT. Not sure if this is true anymore. It appears that they total the score for English and Reading now for consideration?

"I love Ledo pizza, however terrible and greasy" The absolute best!

Why do we keep doing this. One can have their opinion but it needs to be based in facts. 40% is not a small proportion. Also, I wonder what the actual proportion of students at NASS actually apply to the Naval Academy or are medically qualified etc https://www.usna.com/document.doc?id=206

Not arguing...just that 40% is a number that caught my eye. Make of it as you will.

40% is a huge number. Then if you eliminate the number of enlisted etc that may be getting appointments and that % is probably higher. The point is it ain't everything but it ain't nothin either. But, carry on.

Clearly not everything. But it means something. This is 2015 - But potentially 40% attended summer session is a crazy number. https://www.usna.com/document.doc?id=206

good point. 15,000 just seems high.

Thanks great information. Sounds like ROTC may be the best route for those wanting to go to med school after graduation.

What are the possibilities the USNA can draw from for those appointments if a candidate is pending without a nomination at this stage, if NROTC is not an option. Just the VP?

Possibly, but It's really impossible to say that's true either. As all these facts or factors will never be disclosed. As you said, no one knows the numbers. It's all speculative.

Yes, still mostly paper and pencil. There are a few options every cycle and location for a digital form but still mostly paper.

So well said.

Both are great and different experiences. Both give prospective candidates exposure to the Academy in different ways to see if this is for them which is the point.
