Early Action
If you are applying as a high school senior or as an active duty member of the military, you can apply under our Early Action program. Basically, if you complete your application by November 1, you will receive our admissions decision no later than December 24. Early Action is non-binding; you are not obligated to accept an appointment and you have until May 1 to decide. Also, you may apply to any other schools you wish.

Regular Admissions
Files for applicants who are not eligible for Early Action are reviewed under the regular admissions process that begins in December and ends in June. You must complete your application, in its entirety, by February 1. All completed applications are sent to the Cadet Candidate Evaluation Board (CCEB). All regular admissions applicants will be notified of their selection status by mid-April. If you receive an appointment offer, you must accept or decline that offer by May 1, or if appointed after April 15, within two weeks of our offer.
