<p>“To be early is to be on time, to be on time is to be late, and to be late is to be forgotten. Time, tide and formation wait for no man” ~ One of the MANY plebe things I will never forget (SLOANQ you will soon have this memorized…FOREVER)</p>
<p>anyways, yes if the interview is somewhere other than your house be on time. If it’s at your house and you’re late there’s something wrong with that picture.</p>
<p>As everyone has stated, be honest, project confidence, use your experiences from NASS to answer your questions. Don’t view the interview as a make it or break it - this is an opportunity for the BGO to get to know you, the candidate better, and provide a written recommendation back to USNA. Be prepared to answer questions about the Naval Academy (birthday/history), be prepared to tell them what you would like to service select and why, what you would like to major in and why, and WHY you choose the Naval Academy. Also, have a question or two for the BGO, they may ask if you have any questions. Suggest you have your parents leave the room during the interview. The BGO is there to interview you, not your parents.</p>
