<p>My son also attends KP. He was recruited to play basketball.</p>
<p>Options was the key. He was interested in a military education but not very interested in active duty. KP offered excactly what he was looking for, a first class education, PT in basketball and the regimental life in college. One thing that was told to us during his recruitment was that how you feel today is probably not how you will feel 4 years from now. One example given was a kid came in totally non-military that after graduation attended flight school with the Navy and is now flying jets. He also gave examples in the other direction, kids coming in pro-active duty ending up in a civilan job doing reserve duty. Our son is almost halfway through his plebe year and already talking about active duty, and that will probably change again a few times in the next 3 1/2 years. He also told us during the 1st trimester he felt he was where he was supposed to be. KP is the only federal academy that offers these kinds of options. Good luck in your decision in the end you well end up exactly where you need to be.</p>
