<p>Looking good. Try to “nail” the ACT or SAT.</p>

<p>Applying to summer seminar in December/January of your junior year serves as the start of the application process. Contact your members of congress as soon as you get back from summer seminar (thinking positive), complete the DoDMERB exam before the start your senior year, and complete the remainder of your application and CFA by October. I’m in the camp that if you are completing everything late in the process (January/Feb of your senior year) you’re doing it the “hard way.” Your application to summer seminar will also initiate a call from your ALO. At some point you’ll have a formal interview so dress smart.</p>
