<p>Do you have a nomination?</p>

<p>No not yet, my congressmen give out nominations in January and my senators are in January too. But I will be applying to the three.</p>

<p>I’d say your chances are pretty good.</p>

<p>Don’t forget about the VP nomination. Keep your options open!</p>

<p>Bump Bump Bump</p>

<p>Buuuuuuuuuump</p>

<p>Just be sure you’re ready for the physical fitness test…</p>

<p>Lots of times, it’ll come down to you not passing that and/or not being qualified for medical reasons…or no nomination. </p>

<p>Otherwise, you have as good a chance as anyone! :slight_smile: Good luck!</p>

<p>I know this is from a year ago but I wanted to ask if you got into West Point :)</p>
