[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Because more people are interested in that education and experience than they can accommodate. [/quote] But why? We don't currently know any, and we're a military family (dual, at one point in time). [/quote] We’re not a military family but live in Colorado Springs so we have a lot of military and academy alumni friends who we’ve met via our kids over the years. We know one family who currently has 2 kids at USMA, another whose oldest just started there (both legacy families), and DS has a former soccer teammate—not from a military family—who is a freshman at USAFA after a year of hard work post high school to get in. None of the children of USAFA alumni we know had any desire to go there—but the West Pointers seem to have greater love for and connection to the school. [/quote]
