Thank y'all for your videos, Ive been following them for the past 4 or so years now and, among a bunch of other things of course, they've been a huge help! I just got my appointment to USNA '29 today and so I am super stoked to start off my journey following in y'all's footsteps!!
My son is really considering the Naval Academy. He has 24 D1 offers for football and has it down to a few schools (he did turn down all the Ivy League teams). I just want to make sure he knows what he would be getting himself into (your videos are helpful). He liked the Naval Academy better than West Point (we visited West Point twice)… we live in PA and both academies are about the same distance from where we live (less than 2.5 hours away). He did an official visit to UConn which was very nice and has a lot to offer including NIL opportunities that the Navy is not allowed to offer. He still has time to decided, but UConn is a full scholarship plus they offer $11000 a year for cost of attendance. I don’t know what he will decide…
I'm a BGO. I do not recommend going to Navy unless your son wants to be an officer in the Naval Service. It's not about the cost to attendees, it's about service. Navy is not a place to be unless one really wants to be there.
Thank you for the videos! Could you please share what a week looks like for you now? Both deployed and in port. Hours, how does time off work? Can family come and see you? So appreciate you guys.
Hi Julia and Philip, enjoy your channel! How would USNA commissioned officer differ from NROTC commissioned officer, career-development wise? What would be those courses or skills that only offered at USNA?

how about graduate school opportunities?
thanks, useful channel
My Son is currently in Nuke School and is thinking about applying
NYU is not in the same class as the other Ivy schools you mentioned
It’s a very good school highly ranked. I think some of these Ivys may be overly ranked.
For the record, I never applied to an Ivy League school.
