<p>From the WP perspective, a few changes are coming: 1. A paperless application is in the works. 2. If a candidate takes the ACT, the writing section will be mandatory (for data collection purposes at this point).
Tips:
!. Apply to every nomination source you are eligible for
2. Start the WP application process early (Dec. of Junior year - SLS application) and aim to have it complete by November of your senior year. Yes, the deadline is much later but WP works off a rolling admissions system.
3. Follow up with DoDMERB early and often - this is one area that often derails candidates. Do not be discouraged if you get DQed, a large percentage of the accepted class is accepted with a medical waiver.
4. Take the SAT/ACT at least twice</p>
