<p>I was wondering if applying to another service academy would adversly affect my application at west point</p>
<p>Not at all apply away. Apply for ROTC scholarships as well. Spend this year learning about the different services. Figure out where you want to be should you be in the fortunate position to make a choice. Remember you are picking a career. </p>
<p>Do be careful when it comes to nominations. Some MOC's want you to rank and some will only let you be considered for your top choice - it won't look very honest if you rank USMA #1 on one and USNA #1 on the other while trying to beat the odds. Look carefully at the applications for the instructions and consider your choices carefully.</p>

<p>My son applied to 3 SA's and 4 nomination sources, oh and for an NROTC scholarship also. Interesting, tedious and exhausting process for him to say the least. Feel free to PM me if I can assist you.</p>
<p>Best of luck as you proceed!</p>
