Hey guys, thanks for the feedback on my previous post, but I got my LOA for west point!! I'm so happy and stoked about it. Now I just have to focus on the congressional interview which I am really nervous for. However, I had an interview with Army ROTC PMS and it went incredibly well! He really liked me and told me he will suggest me to West Point admissions, one hour later I got the LOA! Anyways, just really excited and I hope i get that nomination!

I got an invitation for an overnight visit a few weeks back, I am considering not going because I do not really have the time to go. Is that going to look bad? Should I try to go?

Hey everyone, I'm from jersey and I am applying to West Point and it is my number one school, after that I am applying to Coast Guard, then Naval Academy, then Air Force Academy. My parents are immigrants and were not in US Army, My dad was conscripted into the Soviet Army which is what I wrote about in my essay and how him being forced to serve for a country who treated him horribly inspired me to serve my country that I am grateful for all the opportunities.

My second essay was about his stroke and how i faced adversity and struggled with financially supporting my family because he was the bread winner.
