Introduction 

United Scares aval Academy 

As the undergraduate college of rhe Naval service, die 1aval Academy prepares young men ,111d women ro 

become professional officers in che l.J . .':i. Na\')' and Manne Corps. Naval Academy studenrs are midshipmen on 

acrive du[) in rhe U.S. Navy. They ,mend che academy for four years, graduating with bachdor of science 

degrees and reserve commissions as ensigns in the Navy or second lieuwnants in rhe Manne Corps. Naval 

Academy graduates serve ar lease five years ,L\ Navy or Marine Corps of'f1cers. 

Around the Yard 

The scenic Na,al Academy campus, known a, rhc Yard, is locarcd in hisroric Annapolis, Md., where rhe .':ievern River 

flows 111co rhe Chesapeake Bay. Wirh 1rs combinarion of early 20rh-cemury and modern buildings. the Naval Academy 

is a blend of tradition and srate-of-the-arr technology chat exemplifies roday's Navy and l\ !arme Corps. Throughout 

the Yard, tree-shaded monumems commemorate the bravery and heroism that are an inherem part of the academr\ 

hemage. Build111gs and walk"ays are named for Naval Academy graduates who have conmbuted ro naval hisrory and 

rhe1r nauon. 

The Naval Academy also is the final resting pl.ice of Revolutionary War naval hero John Paul Jones whose words, 

"J have not yet begun to fight," have inspired gcnerarions of U.S. Navy officers. His crypr is located beneath the 

Academy chapel, also known as the Cathedral of the Navy. A National I listoric Sire, the Naval Academy hoses about 

one million rounsrs every year from all over rhe United Stares and around the world. They come co cnjoy rhc nacuraJ 

beauty of the Yard, ro recall some of rh1s coumry's naval hiscory and ro marvel ar rhe rradirions carried on in 

midshipmen parades and military formations. 

I ounsrs and midshipmen also appreciate dowmown Annapolis, which lies outside rhe gates of 1he Academy. With irs 

colonial charm and busy waterfront, Maryland's state capital provides a pleasam, diverse setting for one of America's 

premier colleges, rhe United States Naval Academy. 

History 

f·ounded in I 84'i by )ecrctary of the Navy (,corge Bancroft, the Academy started as the Naval School on IO acre.� 

of old Fon Severn 111 Annapolis. �ince then, rhe development of the N,1val Academy has rdlecrcd the hisrory of rhe 

Umted States. As our country has changcd culrurally and rechnologically, so has the Naval Academy. In only a 

few decades, the Navy has moved from a fleet of sail and steam-powered ,hips to a high-tech fleet wirh nuclt::trpnwered submarines and surface ships and supersonic aircraft. The Academ)' has changed, too, giving 

midshipmen rhe up-ro-clatc academic and professional training rhey need co be eiTecuvc naval officers in rhcir 

assignmcms after graduation. 

In 1850 rhe '\/a,·al School bc:came the Unned �rares Naval Academy. A new curriculum wem inco effect 

requmng midshipmen LO study ar rhe Academy for four years and co train aboard ships each summer. That 

format is the b,his of a far more advanced and sophi�cicared curriculum at che Naval Academy today. As the U.S. 

Naw grew over the years, rhe academy t:xpanded. The campus or IO acres increased ro 338. The original student 

body of 55 m1dsh1p111en grew to a brigade of 4,000 midshipmen. Mod(:rn granice buildings replaced the old 

wooden srrunurcs of !·on Severn and the Naval 'lchool.

Congress aurhorm:d the Nmal Acadt:m)' to begin awarding bachelor of science degrees 

1n 1933. rhe Academy later replaced a fixed curriculum taken b) all midshipmen with 

the presenr con: rnrrirnlum plus 18 m,1jor fields or srudy, a wide rnriery of decnve 

courses and adv.meed sllldy and research opportunities. 

T he 1'./av,11 Ac.idemy first accepted women as midshipmen in 1976. \\hen Congress 

authorized 1h, .1dm1ss1on of worrn:n to all of the service academics. Women comprise about 

15-1 � pcrccm of entering plebt:s-or lreshmen-and they pursue the same academic

and professional training as do their male classmates.

Mission 

The Na\'al Academy has a unique clarity of purpose, expressed in our official mission: 

"To develop midshipmen morally, menrally and physic.ally and to imbue chem with the

dedicated ro a LM,er of naval service ,md ha\'e potemial for future developmem in mind 

and character ro ,1swme the highest responsibilities of command, citizenship and 

go"ernmenr." This puts everyonc-fourl11·- staff and midshipmen on the same 

wavelength It also encourages a sense of ,ptrtt ,111d pride found at fe" orher schools. 

Program 

The moral, mental ,ind physical elemems of our program are cquall) 1mporram, all 

comributing to the qualities of an oucstanding naval officer.

Plebe Summer 

All midshipmen begin the four-year program with Plebe Summer, a period designed co turn 

c1vil1ans 1nro midshipmen. Plebe Summer is no gentle easing inro che military routine. Soon 

after cnccring 1hc garc on Induction Day, you arc pu1 1nt0 uniform and caught how to salure 

by lhc fim class midshipmen and officers who lead che plebe indoccrinacion program. For 

the next seven weeks, you start your days a1 dawn with an hour of rigorous exercise and 

end rhem long afcer sunset, wondering how you will make it through the nexr day. Forget 

1devision, lc:1�ure rime or mo,·1es. You will ha\'e barely enough hours in the day co finish 

your assigned plebe tasks. 

The frantic, exhausling pace of Plebe Summer leads you somewhere. Jr gees you ready for 

your responsibiliues when che brigade rerurns from summer rraining and che academic year 

beg111s. The summer also builds rhe foundation for the tangible and inrangible qualities chat 

make an oumand1ng naval officer. You learn self-discipline. You learn ro organize your rime 

and decide which th111gs are mosr imporranc. You reach rop physical condition. You develop 

your ab1liry ro chink clearly under srress and ro reacc quickly when the unexpected comes 

your way. Any officer who has srood che watch on the bridge of a ship in a scorm or landed 

a 1cc on the deck of an aircraft carrier at nighr can cell you rhe imporcance of rhese qualities. 

Plebe Summer introduces you LO the basic how-m's of the Navy as well. Aboard Naval 

Academy sailboats, you learn to respect che power of wind and current. In moror boars and 

yard parrol crafr. you learn the basics of seamanship, navigation and boar handling. On che 

weapons range, vou learn how ro fire small arms safely and accurately. You also learn why we 

have high standards o( honor, character and morality. And, you begin co develop your own 

ideas about leadership and the techniques that will make you an effeccive leader when your 

rurn comes. 

Academic Year 

\Xl'hen the upperclassmen return to the academy in late August to begin the academic year, 

you begin a rouune that becomt'.S very familiar during your four years. A cypical weekday 

schedule looks something like chis:

Leadership Responsibility 

A, you progress chrough rhe years ac rhe academy, leadership responsibilities gro". Each 

ye,ir, you Jnd your classmates assume more importanc roles in running your company, 

your bacralion and the brigade. By che ume you are a flrsr cl.1ss midshipman, you are 

mak111g da1h· decisiom affeccing the morale and performance of ocher midshipmen. You 

arc 1each1ng 1hem rhe rundamrnra!s of the naval profession and helping rhcm through 

difficulties. You are leading chem chrough personal example. communications, rewards 

and dcsccpl1nc and ocher cechniques you have learned in die classroom and rhrough three 

years c:xpcricnce. Your leadership responsibilities also increase in summer professional 

training. After learning whac it is like ro be a Sailor aboard ship during second class 

cruise, you undertake che ducies or a junior officer during your first class summer cruise. 

You build your leadership skills in rhcse and ocher scmngs, where you can learn from 

nmrakes and bcnellt from the guidance of seasoned Navy and Marine Corps officers. 

Bv the rime you rake your pomion as a naval officer responsible for leading talented 

Sailors 311d /\larines, you know what leadership techniques and styles work best for 

you in different situations. 

Religious Acri vi ties 

The copper-green dome of the Chapel cowers over rhe orhcr buildings 111 rhe Yard at 

the 1'.aval Academy and, 111 a sense, serves as a symbol of Annapolis to rhe outside world. 

Thi, 1s more than a cmncidence. Over rhe decades of our hisrory, fighting Americans 

have learned by experience that there is a d1mcns1on ro military leadership-bod, in 

anti out of combar-rhat is essential ro real effecnveness. This 1s rhe spinrual factor, rhc 

intangible qualit:) we call moral courage. 

Ir 1s rim aspect of me academy's mission that the Command Religious Program strives ro 

fulfill: ro foster spiritual growth and promote the moral development of the midshipmen 

w1th111 the tenants of their parncular faith or beliefs. The Chaplains Office serves che 

rel1g1ous and spiritual nc.:eds of the Brigade by ministering to rhe midshipmen through 

pasroral care, spiritual and religious memoring, nrual and sacramental obligations and 

by providing pasror.il care for all, regardless of their faith background. 

While attendance at religious services 1s oprional. midshipmen are reminded char as 

officers of the naval service, their personal beliefs will ofren be reseed, and chat in 1ime of 

stress their subordinate, will look to them for spiritual as well as professional guidance. 

llK Naval Academy has long believed chat furure officers owt: ir to themselves and co 

those they will lead co gain insights into moral, cchicaJ and spirirual dimensions of 

milit.trY lcadc.:rship. ,\lidshipmen are encouraged to rake full advantage of opponuniues 

for worship and moral development ,n the academy. From rhe flrs1 day of Plebe Summer 

unrd rhe dav of comm1,sioning four years lacer, rhe academy's sraff of six chaplains serves 

and n111mters ro the needs of rhe Brigade of Midshipmen. Among ocher things, they 

provide personal counseling, ranging from faith-cenrcrcd issues rhrough crises of life and 

death lO ruture mam,1gc plans. 

In exercising a ministry of "presence" throughout th.: daily life of the brigade, chaplains 

spomor and pJrticipate in Bible scu<lics. prayer groups and religious instruction classes. 

Thcr ,·1sn in company areas and are involved in a host of other brigade acnvirics-all 

of which art designed IO share and build lasting sp1mual resources and to culrivarc chc 

strength and 1mp1rarion char wmcs from a deeply personal rdarionship wirh God.

Educacional Philosophy 

l'hc: Naval Academy\ philosophy of c<lucauon stresses anention to individual srudents by 

highly qu,1lified foculiy members who arc strongly commim:d co reaching. It's hard to gcr 

lost in 1he cl:issroom ,n the Naval Academy. Classes are small, with an average size of fewer 

than 18 ,rudc:nts. Lvc:n the core courses required of all midshipmtcn are divided into small 

sections. l\lichhipmcn receive individual ,mention from instructor. In science and 

engineering rnurscs, the same professor who lectures in the classroom supervises experimcms 

111 the: lab. 1

'11is contrasts sharp!) with most universities, where scholars may address rhc1r 

,tude111s in huge lccwn: halls. but dm:c1 contact with undergraduates in labs or discussion 

sections 1s dekgared 10 gradnar� ,1ssiscanrs. All courses a1 the Naval Academy are taught and 

graded by faculry memhc:rs, nor b) graduan: assistanrs.

Ocean Engineering Major 

Ocean Lngineering holds che key m the lase frontier on earth, che ocean depths. \X'hile marine scientists provide us with a basic knowledge of the ocean en\'ironmenc, the ocean engineer enables us to use 

rh,s cn\'1ronmenc more effecti\'dy. Bi· blending the fundamentals of mathematics, phvsics, chem1str)' 

and nceanogrnph) w1rh knowledge of the engineaing sciences, including ocean materials and wave 

mechanics, the ocean cng111eer plans, designs and builds a \'aricry of coasral, harbor. and offshore 

srrncrures; unmanned underwater \'ehides and di\'er-supporc equipment; underwater acoustic �ystems; 

ocean enerm and ocher marine-related e,wironmencal systems. Multi-disciplinary 111 narure, ocean 

cng111eenng will .1ppeaJ to ci\'il, electrical, env1ron111encal and mechanical eng111eers who wish w 

practice in the ocean realm. 

lhe ocean engineering major is accredited by rhe Engineering Accreditation Commirnon of the 

Accred11jtion Board for [· nginecring and Technology. The major offers an integrated program of srudy, 

using a balance between classroom theory, laboratory work and practical application providing midshipmen wnh chc background co work effecci"d) a., ocean engineers. Laboratory cxpenmems arc

The Center for the Study of Professional Military Ethics 

Authorized by lhe Secrct:uy of rhe Navy in 1998, rhc Center has an ambitious 

mission lO promore and enluncc: the elhical development of current and furure 

militar) lc:aders through education, research, and reflection. This mission charges che 

Cen1er nm only LO work with and on behalf of the midshipmen, fuculry, and staff of the 

Nal'.ll Ac.:a<lemy, but also co reach out LO the: Navy, the Marine Corps, chc: Depanmenr of 

Ddensc. and beyond. The strong outreach dimension of ics mission makes the Center 

unique among ics service academy counterpans, and its focus on military affairs, national 

defense, ,md inrcrnational securiry makes ii unique among ethics centers in academia. 

l"he C.enrer has three major program goal,: 

I.) lo cnnch the imellectual life of the Naval Academy in the field of eLhics. 

2.) lo enhance the reaching of ethics in the milimry education and training systems, 

and bcrond. 

.3.) To conduct executive and other ourreach programs m ethic:.. 

Its Naval '\cademv programs includ,: 

• ,l lecture series, m which distinguished speakers address important issues in ethics: 

• faculry/staff ethics roundrablcs, in which a guest scholar or practitioner presents

work in progress for informal bur focused discussion by faculty and staff;

• a competition and pnze for rhe outstanding erhics essays wrirten in the Naval

Awdemvs core ethics course;

• Frhia far rhl'j11111or Officer, a collection of case swJics on ethical challenges facing 

'\Ja,1

·\cadem1 Class of 1964 and presenred ro every member of the graduating class;

• annual conferences on key copies m ethics:

• USNA Facult) Fellow Program. in which Naval Academy professors conduct

n:.,e,1rch sponsored 61 the Ccnrcr and published as Cenrer occasional papers, case

• "Ethia; at the Movies."' which bring, rogcther small groups of Third and Fourth Class 

midshipmen for an infurmal evening of pizza, sodas, a movie, and a discussion of the ethical 

ISSUCS Ill the film;

• ethics dmners for upper-class midshipmen 111 which guest speakers talk about ,thical

chaJlcnges faced by junior officers in the real world:

• a colleccion of case studies wrirren bv midshipmen about ethical challenges in lifo in

B,rncrofr Hall;

Appendix A: Medical Considerations for Admissions 

h,farmnt11111 is 11'50 ,111r11/11ble 011 our webpnge: 11•w1v.11sn,1.ed11/Ad1111monslmt·dicr1/./1tm. 

The Naval Academy program ts physically ch,1llcng111g. All candidates an: rcqum:d 10 undergo a 

rhorough medical cxaminamrn because Academy graduarcs .ire commissioned 111 a wide variery or 

exciring career ficldswith strict medical standards. 

I he Deparrment o rr)erense .�!cd1c.1I Exammarion Re\'icw Board (DOOM ERB) will schedule your 

medical exam111ano11 ,rnd carefully review the reports co determine if you mcc.:1 our medical standards 

for admis,wn. DO[)\!ERB will consider your medical h1srory and informarion on illnesses, injuries. 

surgery, Familial diseases, and other facrors char could affect your medical status. You might be asked 

to subnrn addmonal reports and/or records f"rom physicians or hospitals. 

Approx1matel} a month .1frer your physical is completed you will receive (by mail) a starns report or 

1he DODt--11:.RB findings. If you have a disqualifying condition, rhe notification wiU ad\'ise you how 

w request a waiver of the standard by writing co che Admissions Board if you would likc us 10 

consider your application further. IF your admissions record is competitive, ,ind if rhe disqualifying 

condic1011 1s one ror which a waiver might be possible, we will ask DODMERB ro prepare your file 

for waiver cons1dernuon. You mar have ro provide amplin,ing information on the condition or 

undergo evaluation by a medical specialist. In most cases, we will seek independent review and an 

advisory recommendation from the srafT of rhe Bureau of Medicim: and Surgery in Washingcon, D.C., 

where all questions in\'ohing commissionability are resolved. Finally, the USNA Admissions Board 

will review your entire record. rhe Board will grant a waiver of the medical standard if your record 

suggests the risk introduced by the disqualifying condirion is justified by your poren1ial for success as 

a midshipman and as a naval officer. 

l--!ajor medic.ii considerations are summarized here so char you and your docrors can anticipare if you meet 

the basic requ1rcmenrs for admission ro the Academy. This 1s nor meant to be a comprehensive listing of 

all disqualtfving conditions; it 1s a bnef and general summary for your conve111ence. 

Eyes and vision 

This is rhe mosr common problem area for candidates. Our basic requirement for admission is normal 

(20/20) lli}COrrected \'isual acuity in each eye. The Admissions Board automatically considers waiver 

of the visual acuity standard for candidates who are otherwise medically qualified, who have 

exceptional scholastic and leadership porennal. and who meer the following additional rcquiremcncs: 

• ,·1s1011 corrects ro 20/20 in cad, eye with spectacle eyeglasses;

• spherical refractive error (the first or the rhree numbers in an eyeglass prestnption) docs

nor exceed+/- 6.00 diopters in either eye;

• asrigmacism (the second number in the prcscnpt1011) does not exceed +/-3.00 diopters in 

either eye; and 

• the difference in refractive error berwcen the rwo eyes does 1101 exceed 3. 50 diopters.

Howcvcr. for cand1da1es unabk ro see 20/20 wirhout glassc.:s, admission is more highly competitive. 

Abnormal color pucepuon is disqualifying. Requests for waiver of the color vision standard are 

normally not considered. Color v1s1on is also retested on Induction Day. 

Kcra1oc;onus is disqualtf),ing; a waiver cannot he approved. 

159 
Radial kcr:trntomy (RK), phowrefractive kcraccccom) (PRK), laser assisted in-silu kaaromilcusis (LASIK), 

cpikt·rawph;1k1a, onhokaawlogy, imra-c.:orneal nng implants and all O!hcr surgical, laser, or mechanicaJ 

pron·durc, performed ro correct visual acu1L}' are disqualifying. In a departure from previous policy, we are now 

.nnhorized w consider waivers o( this disqualific,nion for an extremely Ii mired number of candidates who have 

undergone LOrneal refractive surgerv. RK is SLrongly discouraged and unlikely co be approved for waiver because 

It doc., not produu: ,rahk visual correc11on in operauonal environments. Comparing PRK and LASIK. PRK 1s 

favored because ir has been srudied/evaluatcd in che Navy's operalional environments. Operational resting of 

LASIK is ongoing. We will continue to fovor l'RK umil our opcracional experience wich LASIK is more extensive. 

\Vuvcr rnns1dcratio11 for Naval Acadc:1111 cmry after corneal surgery is possible provided: 

• the pre-procedure refrac11ve aror did not exceed +/-8.00 diopcers 111 any meridian of cicher eye;

• speLr.1dc c·orreLLion co 20/20 is possible in cach eye after che procedure;

• at the lime of the waiver request, at lease three month, havc elapsed sinct: the mosr recent creatmcnc:

• posr-proccdure refractive error i, stabk withrn 0. 50 diprer; and

• no ,fotrubanc( of visual function (1.e. hne, glare, haJos, ecc.) is prt:scnt.

I he onlv form of refractive surgi:ry considered for a wai\'er co enter Navy 51:.AL and naval aviation training is 

PRK. In general, it is prudent rn dda)' all refractive surgery proct:urt:s until after rhe progression of 

nc.:arnghtt:dness assoc1ared wich growth 111 eye.: si,c.: has ceased (beyond age 21 for many people). If you are 

considering undergoing any refractive surgery or treatment, you are stronglv encouraged co discuss chis with the 

Senior Medical Officer in Admissions. Refracrive surgery is disqualifying and the number of auchoriz.ed waivers 

i, extremely limited. 

If you wc.:ar glasses or comacc lcnsc,. take rhem with you ro rour examination. If you wear sofr comact lenses, do 

nor use chc.:rn during rhc three days preceding your examination. Do not use hard or gas-permeable contact 

lenses for 21 da\'S before your examinalion.

In suppon of this policy, DOD/1.[ERB has be::cn asked ro nore and describe all cacroos. br;mds, and 

bod) pie::rc1ng (except as noted ,1bovc). As a safeguard against oversighc and to idemi�· candidates 

who might have obtained a tattoo or orher body marking after the DODMERB examination, 

candidates accepting an offer of appointment whose records have nor been idencified by 

DOD!vtl.:.RB will be asked ro stan: whecher any of these conditions an: present. ln most cases this

DentaJ standards 

I .xcepr for mmor or questionable areas, you should have all required dental rreaum:m completed 

before 1•our medical exam1nanon. /\l1ssing teeth causing reduced masricacory (chewing) or incisal 

(biting) efficiencl' muse be replaced b!· well-designed bridges. partial dencures. or implants in good 

condition. I( you are undergoing .1ctive orchotlomic treatment th,1t will nor be com pieced pnor to

Concluding comments 

A, vou will realize from 1he foregoing summ,1ry, the physical examinarion for admission ro the 

,�1 al .-\c:adem) 1s comprehensi\'e, anti tht: medical/demal standards are specific anti srricr. This 

1, neu:ssary b.:c.rnsc our goal is for every midshipman ro be able co anticipate unrestricted 

opponunirics for commissioned service after graduation. For most candidates, the physical 

cx.am11u1ion process will require no more than a single vim to the office of a physician, dentist, 

and an optomemst. l·or ochers, questions will arise that may necessitate a variety of addi1ional 

c,·aluauom. \X'c know 1h1s can become umc-consuming, bur we hope you will untlersrand che 

reason for our concc:rn. Questionablc issues resolve favorably for the majomy or canditlarcs, anti 

w.1ivcr or the srandard(s) 1s often possible when documencacion or a tl1squaliFying condition in an

ind1v1du,1 I 1:andidacc suppons the cxpeccacion or unrestricted service. Staff members at DODM ERB

.111d 111 the adnm.,1011, office will assist in every way possible.
