1. Average is 1300, so there could be ones with higher scores.

I used to live on Cap Hill. We moved to Virginia for precisely this reason. Both children went to Virginia publics
Our kids are pursuing a service academy which is free tuition so another way to approach things.
Getting into a service academy is challenging---it's not like applying to UVA, it's more like Stanford and MIT and Harvard, but also you need to be extremely physically fit
True but planning to be a rugby recruit

No the best service academy West Point avg SAT is only 1300 lol
Average HS athletes would easily make the physical.
