James! This is fantastic! Thank you for sharing! I'll be sharing this with the 1SE community :)
Hey Cesar! Thanks for the comment and share! I've really enjoyed using your app and am still using it every day.
Is it just me or does this look way better then West Point
It doesn't look better than West Point -- IT IS !!!!
Just remember, this was the last year of a Firstie.... and he didn't show any of the hard parts about going to a service academy for 4 years....
No it's not. GO ARMY!! BEAT NAVY!!!
phalangeopods In your dreams, Woop !!!
BEAT ARMY -- AGAIN!! 12 More Years!!
Yes
This is the coolest video ive seen. I hope to join the navy and go to the academy some day and this really boosts my motivation. Thank you!
Great video. I almost went to Annapolis about 15 years ago. My life would have been very different. Glad I got a small taste of what it may have been like. I'm also a Cal Alum. I like your 1 sec a day routine for your videos. It's a good format that works. I'm surprised you only have 180 subs. Take care.
This was soo rad! Even though I didn't make it for class 2018, it was a fun experience applying! Got to stay here for 3 days and enjoy the beautiful Annapolis, Maryland!
Fantastic work man. Brings back some awesome memories. -Chris '06
Definitely going to join it's my dream!!!! Can't Wait!!!😊😊
This is my dream when i get older! I want to join The Marines and enjoy this life in the Naval Academy if i can work towards it when i graduate to high school.
That was awesome! Great video and message
I want to go to the academy and this makes me want to be there right now
Sir, I have started watching this video on a daily basis, sometimes multiple times per day. Going to the Naval Academy and becoming a Surface Warfare Officer has been my life dream. Do you have any advice for the application process?
+Willow Hunley-Bota I know what you mean man. Annapolis and naval aviation has also been an ambition for me as well. Are you the class of 2021 at the USNA?
Yes.
maybe we'll see each other NASS! :D
Vincent Nguyen Do you have instagram?
I'm a freshman in high school and it's my dream to go to the naval academy and become an officer in the marine corp
Work hard and you can do it. Certainly is not easy. I am in the stressful waiting period of senior year before I find out if I got accepted.
Well goodluck to you hope you get accepted!
Just don't give up.
Nice, it's my dream to get accepted into the naval academy and become a U.S navy SEAL, good luck to you.
Christopher Harmon Hope you get in, don't let the stress get to you you'll get in.
So envious, to sit inside a f35B cockpit is my life dream, but I 'm not sure whether I can still make it and ASTB E. We will see.
What set your application apart from others? I've still got plenty of time before applying, but want to make sure I get an appointment.
How did it go?
Crushed it!
I’m a senior in high school and haven’t heard back of my acceptance/denial to the Naval Academy. If I get accepted, I am definitely going. However if I do not, I have been struggling to decide between doing NROTC at NC State to then re-apply to the academy after a year, or do NROTC at The Citadel. After watching this, I’m definitely going to re-apply. I cannot pass up the possibility of experiencing all of this.
I wish you the best of luck!
James M. Thank you!
Defiantly going to join
Awwww Zatha..how gorgeous
Currently enlisted, have a request going through the chain of command right now trying to be able to apply here. Watch this video at least once a week. Hope all is well, sir.
How does a dog get to be at USNA? None there back in the day!

Bad ass. Nice work.
what's the song..Love it
Hey, i was just wondering what kind of recording device did you use to capture the 1 second of every day
My dad was in the navy and he tells me storues, but is it really hard physically or mentally or emotionally. Just kinda have my doubts
I'm a freshman at the marine military academy and it's my dream to go to USNA then try to become a marsoc marine
so I'm wanting to go to the USNA but I'm currently going to graduate from college with my associates degree and I'm still young I'm 19 and want to get my bachelors as an Rn , do you think the USNA can help in that so I could serve in the medical field , ?
I'm a pretty solid student with 3.7 out of 4 gpa(That's mostly As and some Bs) Im a Junior in high school and I really want to go to the USNA. I play varsity soccer and work weekends and sometimes during the week. I was also a Boy Scout for a couple of years. Does anybody think I have a good shot of being accepted into the academy?
congrats
I wanna go there so bad, but I didn't got accepted, and I'm gonna be enlisted there
This is what I want to do some day🇺🇸
Nice.
+James Mackovjak Hey man i was wondering what you had done in highschool prior to joining the USNA as I am currently a junior in highschool and want to know if I am on the right track or if you could point me in the right direction.
+wylde Carmona Gonzalez - Thanks for the comment. I feel that the most important aspects of your application package revolve around three things: academics, athletics, and other aspects that highlight your character and leadership ability - in that order. In terms of academics, come in with as high of a GPA as possible along with a high ranking within your school; in addition taking AP courses along with high marks and a high SAT score are probably just as important. I feel that the Naval Academy weights this higher than most other aspects of your application. In regards to athletics, ensure to do well on the physical test as well as show aptitude for sport - whether demonstrated in organized high school sports or in other venues. In regards to character/leadership ability - there are several ways to demonstrate this I feel, including from being captain of your athletics teams, Boy Scouts, extra-curricular activities, school government, etc. The possibilities are endless really as long as you show that you are a person of high moral standing with good character and potential to be a leader.
In regards to myself personally, I tried to hit as many of the wickets as I could that I mentioned previously. As such, I applied as a salutatorian with 4.0 GPA at the top of my HS with numerous AP test validations and a relatively high SAT marks. In addition I was a 3 sport varsity athlete for my four years of HS. In regards to extra-curriculars, I was involved in several organizations within HS and out of HS, including school government, the Boy Scouts, and several community service oriented HS clubs. Try to make yourself stand out further with unique letters of recommendations, personal statements, and other ways to demonstrate that you a top candidate. One way I accomplished this was writing a personal statement on my bicycle trip across the United States to raise funds for the Wounded Warrior Project and the Boys and Girls Club.
In general - the Academy is looking for well-rounded student-athletes with the ability to lead. In the end, graduates of the USNA will be serving in stressful and dangerous environments, often while also being in charge of other men and women. There is no perfect method on how to create a capable officer, however the Academy takes the approach that if you excel in those three areas mentioned previously, then you can be taught the skills required to begin as an Ensign or 2nd Lt. in the Navy/Marine Corps family while at the Academy.
Feel free to PM me with any questions, and good luck!!
+James Mackovjak No man thank you for answering haha. Wow you blew me out of the water I thought I was doing at least decent as I currently have a 3.8 GPA and volunteer but I don't even compare. I was in wrestling and did fairly well but felt it had taken to much time away from my studies. Should I give wrestling another shot? what do you recommend that I should do?
I'd love to make a video like this but i'd get court marshalled If i did half the stuff in this video.
What branch are you in the military?
Lets say if I dont play any sports but I can max out on the CFA am i good to go?
Definitely not
I want to got either Naval Academy or Air Force Academy
What camera was used here, sir? :)
both are good to pick for college but i prefer naval acadamy
if you could go back in time would you go to college anywhere else?
Nope. Best school in the world.
+James Mackovjak any one tip of advice you would give to a 17 year old currently going after a nomination? Im set on going here.
unfortunately I think you're entirely misinformed. If you're a perfectly capable person going into the process, you'll surely come out only better. I think your whole concept of the Academy is flawed. Have you gone to a US Military Academy?
Please excuse my ignorance but how does one become a Marine Corps officer in the Naval Academy? Are the people that become Marine Corps officers put into a different category than the people that will become Naval officers? In your video I saw that someone was wear Marine cammies. Do midshipmen that want to become USMC officers wear those when you guys go to the field other then the Navy cammies? Midshipmen that want to become Marine Corps officers do they have to take different courses then others? I really want to become a Marine Corps officer and I would like to go to the Naval Academy to achieve this. Please help me out and tell me the differences between the Navy and the Marine Corps and the difference between what people would wear and the courses they would take at the Academy. Thanks.
Navy and Marine Corps Officers go through essentially all of the same academic and military courses. The only differences occur during your 2/C summer (time between Junior and Senior year) where one goes to a specialized month long evolution for Marine hopefuls called Leatherneck. Depending on performance while at the Academy (in terms of academics, athletics, conduct, and other performance metrics), performance at Leatherneck, and the quotas that the Naval Academy must fit (each year a different number of Marine Corps Officers are needed, during my year it was ~ 300 out of ~1100) will be the determining factor on whether you get your desired service selection or not.
Feel free to PM me if you have any further questions.
The Marine Corps is a department of the Navy
