Thread: You have to fill out....

I am applying to the Naval Academy and as part of the application I have to receive a nomination to be even considered. For this, I must fill out FIVE other equally lengthy applications to 2 senators my congressman the president and the vice president. None of which will guarantee me a nomination.... On top of that I have to fill out the Academy's application along with there medical/physical examinations on top of the Air Force ROTC and Navy ROTC applications on top of all the back up school applications. This will take awhile.....

The Naval Academy is without a doubt one of the most difficult colleges to get into. I once looked into it, but I've since given up (My celiac disease makes it impossible to join the military). Good luck on the applications; it may be discouraging with all the work, but the harder you work, the better chance you have of making it.

If you get in there, you win at life.

I'll tell my brother you said that =) He just started his first academic year there, after surviving plebe summer.

On topic, start working on it early, and don't give up! Persistence is rewarded.
