[quote=Anonymous]I was accepted to West Point back in the day (1998). I didn't go because ultimately it's the kind of lifestyle you have to be 100% certain you want, and I just wasn't. I did have to get a Congressional nomination. I forget how I applied but I do remember having an in-person interview. There was also a physical test where I had to meet certain standards that is not a requirement for regular colleges. It used to have sit ups, a shuttle run, and a flexed arm hang (instead of pull ups) for women. There may have been something else too. My local area (in PA at the time) had a group for the parents of applicants that helped them navigate the process. I once again forget how my parents found out about it but I know they were involved.
