[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They are among the most selective of our higher ed institutions.  Are they considered presitigious? [/quote]

yes. esp in engineering but really all around. [/quote]

But they come with such strings attached.  They are institutions of higher ed, yes, but with a six year military service commitment attached.  That makes them "prestigious" only to certain people.  [/quote]

You are truly a moron.  Just because not everyone is interested doesn’t make them less prestigious.  Where do you people come from?[/quote]

" Not everyone is interested" is a bit of an understatement.  No need for the name-calling.  It's prestigious with certain people. [/quote]

The acceptance rate at Annapolis is 9 percent and at West Point 10.  Ivy League rates.  Clearly many are interested.  Moron.  [/quote]

Really?  Compare the number of applicants to the service academies to the Ivy league schools.  [/quote]
