Decision on transferring to West Point

<p>I always have one piece of advice about all of the service academies: “If you are in doubt, then don’t go.” </p>

<p>West Point and all the academies are too demanding for less than a full 100% commitment. Plus, each academy has a small subset of very unhappy cadets or midshipmen who got more than they bargained for, and who complain regularly. You don’t want to be one of them.</p>

<p>This advice goes double for you, because you have a good situation and have made significant progress towards your degree. ONLY go to West Point if you are extremely enthusiastic about it, and willing to start college all over again. It is only good if you love it.</p>
