“If you are an intelligent person and wantSuper BrilliantEngineering Department
If you are an intelligent person and want to succeed in life, go to another school. This school puts out a lot of propaganda. You are not allowed to develop as a person here, they only want to fit you into their mold for a military officer. I regret going here and wished that I accepted Cornell's admission offer instead everyday. I just transfer out of here and not I am going to MIT next semester no thanks to the Naval Academy.

“The Naval Academy is not for everyone.Quite BrightEngineering Department
The Naval Academy is not for everyone. It is very tough, very demanding, and offers little room for growth in creativity. However, it is a useful preparation for those who desire to be in the military, not just reap the benifits of going to a prestigious institution. The Systems Engineering program is top in the nation, and EXTREMELY rewarding. The school has unlimited engineering resources and very good facuilty. As a military institution, you MUST wear a uniform daily and serve for 4 years in the military. Check our www.navy.edu for more details on admission, etc.Only come here if you want to be an officer in the Navy or Marine Corps, all others will either fail or absolutely hate their life all four years.

“The Naval Academy is not easy place toPolitical Science
The Naval Academy is not easy place to get into, attend, or graduate from, but the education you receive is top-notch and training opportunities are unparalleled. Class sizes are small, and all classes are taught by professors, not teachers' assistants. Though I would highly recommend the Academy and would even like my own kids to one day attend, it is definitely not your typical college experience. I would encourage anyone considering it to carefully research the school and ensure that his/her motivation for attending is the right one. If you really want to graduate and become a naval or Marine Corps officer, than you will do fine.
