[quote=Anonymous]I work at the Pentagon and know a lot of people who went to the service academies (and places like VMI & the Citadel). Bottom line is really no different than for any college: some people loved them, some didn't. There's really nothing that can substitute for having a kid visit, read about them (there are some good books about cadet life at West Point, for instance), consider doing a summer sports camp there, etc. For some kids they are perfect. For other kids they'd be horrible. Note that the military service obligation is not incurred if you decide to transfer in the first couple of years....[/quote]
