I have been offered appointments to USMA, USNA, and USAFA, but am struggling in deciding which academy is the best for me.
For context, I plan on majoring in Biology/Life Science/General Science. I am interested in branching in the following:
Army: intelligence, logistics, medical corps, ordnance, quartermaster
Navy: intelligence, medical corps
Marine Corps: intelligence, communications, logistics
Air Force: RPA pilot, logistics, intelligence, acquisition,
Space Force: intelligence, acquisition, space operations
Possible careers: long-term officer (15+ years), medical, government
Some questions I have about each academy/branch are:
USMA: What is life like as an Army officer in intel, logistics, medical corps, ordnance, or quartermaster?
USNA: How competitive are selections for intelligence, communications, logistics in the Navy/Marine Corps?
USAFA: Are the benefits and opportunities equal for pilots and non-pilots?
I think that I would enjoy my time at any academy; however, I want to choose the one that would best set me up for my goals and interests.
Hopefully there is enough information to offer any feedback or insights. I would greatly appreciate any help.
