[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Serious question - How diverse are these academies (westpoint, Naval, air force, etc)? Asian parent here with DS interested in applying to one of these. Reasonably athletic but academically exceptional. I'm really interested in knowing if these places are welcoming of non-whites in general. Wouldn't want DS to get stuck in a bad situation. If this comes across as prejudiced, I apologize in advance. [/quote] Why don't you sign up for the tour and go to see it yourself? We visited West Point, naval academy and Air Force an Academy, they all more diverse than I ever expected. Daughter chose West Point. [/quote] agree, my son is looking into the academies and taking school tours helped us get a feel for demographics. They are more diverse that we realized. Also recommend if your son is interested, signing up for the week long summer programs academies offer. The summer program is selective but if your son get in it will help him decide what is the best fit for him. https://www.usna.edu/Admissions/Programs/NASS.php#fndtn-panel1-Steps-For[/quote]
