The Naval Academy has so many opprotunities. There is a club or sport or extracurricular activity for just about everything that allows you to pursue your passions. In the military aspects, there are so many opprotunities to interact with members of different countries and learning about their culture while being able to share about our culture as well.

The best thing about The United States Naval Academy is the leadership orrprtunities that it presents. Here, every student has the opportunity to lead their classmates and learn to become officers in the United States Navy. This school will prepare you for life in the fleet and teach you to be a person that your subordinates can trust and look up to. The Naval Academy also provides a very set structure that not very many other colleges provide that will improve graudation rates and success rates.

The best thing about my school is the ample leadership opportunities that everyone is encouraged to participate in. Not only do we take classes related to leadership, but are given charge of ships with a crew of classmates. We are given a task that must be completed and are shown how to do it but are then left at the Conn to command a ship and crew to accomplish our task. Nowhere else is leadership taught, but instilled. Throughout the four years, one may even get the opportunity to command the Brigade with approximately 5000 Midshipman.

The best thing about my school is the tradtion. My school is very old and takes a lot of pride in its tradtion. It makes students feel as if they've become a part of something bigger than themselves. There is also a lot of comfort in tradition.

The Naval Academy is a difficult school, academically, physically and morally. But if a person desires to become a military officer, then the hard work is worth it, because of the excellent people one will meet at school. Almost everyone at school wants to serve their country and do something good with their life. Students at the Naval Academy will undoubtably make friends for life. The school is also completely free for everyone, and everyone is guaranteed a job after graduation as a military officer.
Arwyn
Great opportunities that you won't receive at any other school.
Edward
I am being better prepared to serve my country at the Naval Academy than I would be anywhere else.
Nick
Everyone is bound by service. There is no possible way to describe the trust and love amongst midshipman here. It is like having 40 brothers that you would do anything in the world for. You are always constantly pushed. Everyone here was a vasristy athlete 4.0 in high school so it wierd being a high achiever and being "normal"
Edwin
The Academy challenges each student unlike any school to help develope the future leaders of America. No other school can push each student to their personally limits morally, mentally, and physically.
Jonathan
Provides many oppurtunites for people to improve themselves.
Mike
Service to the nation.
Courtney
The comraderie and the sense of brotherhood and sisterhood shared by not only those currently attending but by the alumni as well.
Alec
The strong sense of tradition. There have been many past graduates who have gone on to do great things: Naval admirals, Marine Corps Generals. president and congressmen, astronauts, CEOs, etc. It is humbling to know that these great people lived in the same building that we live in, went to the same classrooms, and had to abide by the same rules.
Andrew
The best thing about this school is the availability of help to the students who want it. Professors will do almost anything for students who they feel are trying hard; this is one of those schools that is a lot harder to get into than get kicked out of. Also, the spirit and camraderie among the students is the best in the country, we all have a sense of purpose here.
