I believe a portion of his indecision stems from the amount of work it took to receive his USNA appointment.
So many interviews, medical tests, medical waivers, physical fitness exams, essays, recommendations etc.
Applying to an Ivy was relatively easy in comparison. With that being said, I do realize the acceptance rate is even lower at many Ivies including Princeton.
In addition, his older classmates at his high school were in a similar situation. One had to choose between Princeton, MIT and USNA and another between MIT and USNA. They both chose USNA. This may be muddying the waters as well.
@ChoatieMom You are correct. He should of come to some conclusion by now. I believe the underlying issue is he really isn’t sure where he wants to be in 10 years. He wants to do something exciting but he really isn’t interested in a career in the military.
Once again, thank you everyone for your input. It is very helpful.
