    It depends on who you are and what you plan to take from the college. If you enjoy partying and running around with friends, WP might not be the fit for you. But people who wish to truly better themselves in the astounding environment found at the Academy will both enjoy their time and walk away as more developed and better people.
    Bang for the buck

    Unlike how some perceive it, WP is not free. Sure, monetarily cadets won't have to pay a dime out of pocket for the education they receive. But a graduating cadet commits to at least five years active duty in the US Army and four years of intense training while at USMA.
    Tips for prospective students

    DON'T PROCRASTINATE!!! I can't stress that enough. If you are serious about a service academy then you should get things in as early as possible. This means starting before the end of your Junior year. By the time you start Senior year, you should either already be done or almost finished with your application.
    Great for these types of students

    Motivated, athletic, intelligent leaders that work hard and aren't afraid of getting their hands in the mud or attempting things they have never done before.

    Make sure that if you are a 2012 high school grad that you seriously begin now. It might possibly be too late. For 2013 high school grads, begin looking now to apply for the summer seminar to really get a feel on a weeklong experience of West Point life.
    Will enjoy being here

    If a US Army officer is what you aspire to be then this school is perfect. They will make you an ideal officer in the active duty Army.
    Bang for the buck

    It's absolutely free and you actually recieve pay so it's almost like you are already working for the Army. It was ranked #1 by Forbes Magazine.
    Tips for prospective students

    Get all applications done early as well as scheduling doctors appointments and getting nominational packets together long before the deadline because you don't want to have to have your fingers crossed whether applications will reach the Congressman and other nominational sources in time.
    Great for these types of students

    Aspiring military officers who ultimately desire a career-long service in the US Army.
