He Graduated from USNA May of 2022

He Commissioned from the Naval Academy in May of 2022.

I am also confused on how to get a nomination. Is it something you earn, or do you apply for it with a resume?

Honestly since you’re in 7th grade all you gotta worry about is being a kid, once you enter highschool get involved with school, volunteer, get into sports, be well rounded and have humility, but for the time being, be a kid and enjoy being one

I think he meant in total after you graduate

You start the second semester of your junior year. Open a pre-candidate kit, then over the summer you will start your full app/submit nominations. First semester of your senior year, if roughly 50% of your app is done, you can schedule your interview with your BGO. As a general piece of advice, keep in touch with your BGO. I first met mine in Feb 2020 while applying for the class of 2025 and sat down for coffee to learn more ab the academy. I kept in touch the whole time I was applying. I’d ask him questions about various things going on with my application/nomination and make sure that he knew how committed I was to the process. He told me even before our interview that he was pulling for me to get an appointment, and was very excited to see me get a nomination and be one step closer to attending.

@@beneichholz when are you supposed to start applying for a congressional nomination, and what would be the proper way to apply? i know that you need to do an online application on the congresspersons website, but is it important to send an email or something else, and what would be the timeline for that? (i’m a junior right now). thank you sm!

@@beneichholz thanks just received a nomination

If you look up "service academy nomination questions" you'll find sample questions.

For what branch of military? It isn’t in person??

I really don’t think he did. Because he hasn’t posted any updates

@@mollybasketball3808 He Graduated from the Naval Academy in 2022

@@huntercanine That's right! He did.

That’s really lame! You were so close and lost it all because of a simple mistake. What happened next after the rejection?

Evangelical Brandy I decided to enlist into the marines which I already have I might just do their officer programs. I would reapply while I’m serving but I’m not sure about it because I have to start all 4 years over again even if I have so many college credits on me.

How did it go?

Update?

What academy?

Did they ask you a political question? I have mine tomorrow. Good luck!

How did it go? What did you get asked?

@Grayson Callahan I did get in. I'm a plebe living life right now.

@Grayson Callahan hey! me too! good luck bruvva

@@ayushpadhi2173 way to go!

Just curious - what do you know now that would keep you from applying?

@@oilkos77 I know what the experience is like. I have nightmares about the place 31 years later. I could have been more successful at another college and the civilian world of employment. The biggest issue is that you do so much that I lost the love of learning. You just put out fires and try to avoid getter NF kicked out for whatever. Not worth the effort. But that’s just me. I have three siblings. One was very happy with it. One felt like it was a waste like me. I have not asked the other sibling.

@@oilkos77 Also the political ideology has shifted significantly. Their recent commercial boasted about new racist policies on admittance. They do not want the best candidates. They want the right mix of people based on the color of their skin. I know a word for that. I also saw a group of people from the Academy promoting a controversial Marxist group. If you're white you will need to perform at a higher level. If you're Asian...good luck! Best thing to be is a female who is a minority and has some sort of sexual dysphoria. The racism is not new. What's new is that they admit it and are proud of it. My mind is completely blown. The leadership is "just following orders." But all it takes for evil to triumph is for good people to do nothing. All that being said, I'd still give it serious consideration. It is free and it's amazing education. You'd face all those issues at regular schools as well. But as I approach 50 I can look back and see that I wasted years of my life on things which mean nothing. Did the best I could. Things turned out well so I can't complain too much.

@@cybercab thank you for your honesty! Interesting perspective...My son plans to apply next year so I am gathering info. I agree with the shifting political perspective, everywhere. People don’t realize how well they have it here! Speaking from first hand experience, coming from former Soviet Union. Socialism is a big NO! My son loves learning, especially calculus. I certainly would not want him to lose that. Hmm I guess he wouldn’t be too disappointed if he didn’t get in then :) Do you mind if I email you? My son wanted to know more about what’s life at the academy is like and whether he can handle it. Thank you for sharing your opinion! I am glad things turned out well for you :)

@@oilkos77 Olga, he sounds like the kind of man we need there! I'd be glad to help in any way possible. Pleased feel free to him message me. (My username @ gmail)

How did it go?

what kind of questions did they ask

Did you get in?

I was wondering that too

@@mollybasketball3808 he did, he made it to the naval academy

@@sahajkohli4305 what grade is he in???

@@mollybasketball3808 I think he’s a junior there now

@@sahajkohli4305 that's really cool! I'm glad that he made it. He hasn't posted that's y I thought he quit KZfaq

The person from my Rep said 20 minutes, but that could vary.

Mine was about 20

Adam Olinde there ya go man. Don’t compare yourself to the people who have got in. Focus on yourself and improving in every area as best you can

I am the same way, but I have begun to lead in little things and I'm trying to learn about leadership in healthy ways and practice it when out with friends. In a 180 from before I now end up giving a significant part of direction to our unplanned days together.

Did you earn an appointment?

Did you get in??!
