My friend just got rejected from the USNA, which surprised me because I really thought he was well qualified, although i know it was competitive this year. So anyways, he’s really upset, this was his lifes dream and he wanted this more than anything. Hes a really smart kid and he is VERY physically prepared (he works out everyday for like 2 hours).
So i heard that you might be able to write letters/recommendations to try to appeal a rejection from the USNA? Is this true? If not, is there any other way to possibly appeal his rejection? I know lots of people who would write letters for him and he would do anything to go there. I dont know much about this process so any info would be appriecated :)
