Does Admissions consider music/fine arts in the application process?

Sophomore in high school considering West Point here,

I was just wondering if playing an instrument like piano for 10 years or so makes any difference in an applicant’s file from the eyes of the administration.

I recently became interested in West Point, and know the general basic guidelines for getting in, including good grades, sports, leadership, service, etc. but do hobbies like music help distinguish an applicant even more so?

The SAs consider everything. Some activities like varsity sports are weighted slightly more heavily but everything is considered. Keep in mind that the SAs want “well rounded” candidates…and music helps that profile. JMPO…
Good Luck!
