Introduction 

United States Naval Academy 

As the undergraduate college of the Navy, the Naval Academy prepares 

young men and women to become professional officers in the U.S. \Javy and 

\lanne Corps. '\Ja\ al Academy students are midshipmen on ach\·e duty in the 

L.S. !\'.a\'y They ,1ttend the academy for four years, graduating with bachelor

of science degrees and commissions as ensigns in the avy or second

lieutenants in the Marine Corps. NaYal Academy graduates serve at least sh,

years as l\aval and Marine Corps officers.

Around the Yard 

The scenic '-.a\',11 Academ) campus, kno\\n as the Yard, is located in historic 

Annapolis, \Id., where the Severn River flows into the Chesapeake Ba�. IVith 

its combination of early 20th-centuf) and modern buildings, the ,a\ al 

Academy is a blend of tradition and stale-of-the-Mt technology that 

e>-.emplifies toda\·'s '\Ja\ \" and �!arine Corps. Throughout the Yard, 

tree-shaded monuments commemorate the braven· and heroism that are an 

111hNenl part of the academ\' s lwritage. Buildings" and walk\\ ays are named 

for Naval J\cadenw graduates" ho have contributed to naval history and their 

n,1tion. 
1he \;a\'al Academ�· also is the final resting place ot Revolutionary War naval 

hero John Paul Jones whose \\'ords, "I have not yet begun lo fight," have 

inspired generations of U.S. \!a\·al officers. His crypt is located beneath the 

academy chapel, also known as the Cathedral of the Na\·)'. A National 

I lislnric Site, the i'\,1\al Academy hosts about one million tourists every year 

from all over the United States and the world. They come to en101· the natural 

beaut, of the Yard, lo recall some of this country's '\/a\'al history and lo 

man el at the traditions carried on in m1d�hipm�n parades and

° 

militarv 

torma I ions. 

I ourisls ,md midshipmen also appreciate that do\\'ntown Annapolis lies right 

outside th<' gates ol the academ1. \\'1th its colonial charm and bu,y waterfront, 

\lan·land's sl,1le capital provides a pleasant, di\·erse setting for one of

Naval Academy. In just a few decades, the "Javy has moved from a fleet of sail 

and steam powered ships to a high-tech fleet with nuclear-powered 

submarines and surface ships and supersonic aircraft. The academy has 

changed, too, g1\'ing midshipmen the up-to-dale academic and professional 

training the\ need lo be effective naval officers in their assignments after 

graduation. 

In 1850 the Naval School became the United States Na,·al Academy. A new 

curriculum went into effect requiring midshipmen to study at the academy for 

four years and to train aboard ships each summer. That format is the basis of a 

far more advanced and sophisticated curriculum at the Naval Academy today. 

As the U.S. Navy grew over the years, the academy expanded. The campus of 

JO acres increased to 338. The original student body of 60 midshipmen grew to 

a brigade size of 4,000 midshipmen Modern granite buildings replaced the 

old wooden structures of f'orl Severn and the Naval School. 

Congres� authorized the f\.aval Academy to begin awarding bachelor of 

science degrees in 1933. The academy later replaced a fixed curriculum taken 

by all midshipmen with the present core curriculum plus 18 major fields of 

study, a wide ,•ariety of elective courses and advanced stud) and research 

opportunities. 

The Na,·al Academy first accepted women as midshipmen in 1976, when 

Congress authorized the admission of women to all of the sen ice academies. 

\'\'omen comprise about 13 lo 1-1 percent of entering plebes -- or freshmen -

and they pursue the same academic and professional training as do their male 

classmates. 

Mission 

The Na\'al Academ� has a u111que clarity of purpose, expressed in our official 

mission 'To develop midshipmen morall), mentally and physically and to 

imbue them with the highest ideals of dutv, honor and lovalty in order to 

provide graduates who are dedicated to a �areer of na\'al sen:ice and have 

potential for future development Ill mind and character to assume the highest 

responsibilities of command, citizenship and government." This puts e,·eryone 

-- tacult1, staff and midshipmen - on the same ll'avelength. lt also encourages 

a sense of spirit and pride found at fe" other schools. 

Program 

The moral, mental and physical elements of our program are equally 

important, all contributing lo the qualities of an outstanding a\'al officer. 

Academics 

Every m1dsh1pmi1n's academic program begins with a core cumculum thilt 

includes courses in engineering, science, mathematics, h1.1111an.1lies and social 

science. This is designed to gh·e you a broad-based education that will qualif, 

you tor practically any career field in the ;-.;a,·y or Marine Corps. At the same 

time, our majors program gives 1·ou the opporlunih to develop your 

parllcular area of academic interest. 

For especially capi!ble and highlv moti\'ated studenb, \\'e offer challenging 

honors programs and opportunities to start work on postgraduate degrees 

while ,till at the academy. 
Professional and leadership training 

We don't just tell you about life in the Na, y and Manne Corps. After four 

vears at the l\a\'al Academv, the life and customs of the naval service become 

second nature First, you 

l

earn to take orders from practically everyone but, 

before long, vou acquire the responsibility for making decisions that can affect 

hundreds of other midshipmen. Your professional classroom studies are 

backed by many hours of practical experience in leadership and naval 

operations, including assignments \\'ith �avy and .'.v1arine Corps units during 

summer months. 

l\loral Education 

\loral-ethical de\'elopment is a fundamental element of all aspects of the 

\lava! Academ\ expenence. As future officers in the Navy or Marine Corps, 

midshipmen will someday be responsible for the priceless lives of many men 

and \\'Omen and multi-million dollar equipment. From Plebe Summer through 

graduation, the i\:aval Academy's four year Character Development Program 

focuses on the attributes of integrity, honor, and mutual respect. One of the 

goals of this program is to de,·elop midshipmen who possess a clearer sense of 

their own moral beliefs and the abilit\ to articulate them. Honor is 

emphasized b,· means of the Honor Conce,pt -- a system which was originally 

formulated Ill 1951 and states "Midshipmen are persons of mtegrity: they 

stand for that \\'hich is nght." These Naval Academy "words to live by" are 

based on the moral values of respect for human dignity, respect for honesty 

and respect for the properly of others. Brigade Honor Committees composed 

of elected uppcrclass midshipmen are responsible for education and training 

m the I lonor Concept. \1idsh1pmen found in violation of the Honor Concept 

b) their peer, mav be separated from the \lava! Academy.

Physical training 

\\ e teach the importance of being physicallv fit and prepared for stress 

because the duties of \lav) and Marine Corps officers often require long, 

strenuous hours in difficult situations. The phvs1cal requirements of Plebe 

Summer training, four years of physical education and year-round athletics 

also de,elop pride, teamwork. and leadership

'\/otc: The College Code Number to be used to forward your SAT-I test scores 

to the '\Javal Academy is 5809. 

Physical Aptitude Examination 

All can<lidates must pass a standard Physical Aptitude Examination (PAE) to 

qualify for admission to the academy. The PAE tests your coordination, 

strength, speed and agilil). If you are physically fit, the PAE should present 

no problem Beca11se co111petilio11 for admission to the academy is stiff mu/ the 

arl111issio11s board rei1iews the PAE score, yon will wa11t to rlo your best. 

The candidate admissions packet gives you details of lhe PAE, which may be 

adm1111stered by a teacher or school official with a degree in physical education 

or bv a commissioned military officer on active duty. 

Medical Exam and Physical Considerations 

Because the Naval Academy's program is physical!� demanding and Navy 

and Marine Corps officers must meet certain medical standards, we require all 

candidates for admission to pass a thorough medical exam. These exams are 

scheduled for candidates through the Department of Defense i\ledical 

E,amination Review Board. 

Generalh· speaking, healthy candidates with normal \ 1s1on ha\·e little 

difficult\ passing the exam. However, the exam sometimes identifies 

characteristics or problems that could be aggravated by the academy's rigorous 

routine or that would prc\'ent military ser\'ice after graduation. Some specific 

medirnl considerations are discussed in Appendix A. 

Obtaining a Nomination 

All applicants must obtain a nomination from an official s0urce during the 

.idmissions process. There are manv sources of nom111ation, and applicants 

should apply to all sources for \\'hich the\' arc eligible. This normally includes 

a U.S. representative, two U.S. senators and the \'ice president of the U111ted 

States. See the sample letters on pages 20 and 21

manv members of Congress e\'aluate candidates during the summer months 

and 111::ikc their decisions in early fall, though the academy accepts 

nominations until the en<l of January. Applicanb for militaf) 

service-connected nominations (as described in follo\\'ing paragraphs) should

Selection for Appointment 

If the Na\·al Academy admissions board finds you qualified scholastically, 

physically and medically and you've obtained a nomination, you become one 

of the approximately 2,000 candidates to reach this stage. Of that number, 

around 1,➔50 are offered appointments, with about 1,180 accepting and 

becom111g midshipmen. 

Offers of appointment and our form of an early offer (called a Letter of 

Assurance) are made beginning in September and continue through the 

followmg spring. !\early all appointments are offered by May 15. Files not 

completed by March 21 will be closed from further consideration. 

Naval service obligation 

When you accept an appointment, we send you several important documents 

and forms to consider and complete. One of the most important is the 

Agreement to Serve. This agreement, required by U.S. law (Title 10, U.S. Code, 

Sections 6959 and 2005) and other directives, outlines your service obligation 

and is signed on Induction Day in July at the Naval Academy. Lt requires the 

consent of parents or guardian if you are a minor. In signing the Agreement to 

Serve, you state that you will: 

• complete the four-year course of instruction at the Naval Academy.

• accept an appointment and serve as a commissioned officer in the Naval

Resen e or Mal'ine Corps Resen·e. Midshipmen will have military

obligations of eight years and six of those years will be served in an active

duty status immediately upon graduation.

• accept an appomtment as a commissioned officer in the reserve component

of the Navy or Marine Corps and remain therein until the eighth

anniversarv of graduation from the 1\a\·al Academy.

• serve Ill an appropriate enlisted grade on active duty tor up to four vears if

you do not fulfill the paragraphs agreed to above.

• reimburse the United States for the cost of education received at the !\aval

Academ) it you voluntarily, or through misconduct, fail to complete a

period of active duty specified abo\·e.
Oath of Office 

The appointment information also includes a copv of the Oath of Office which 

must be signed and agreed to orally by Li.S. citizens on Induction Day: 

"!, ______ � having been appointed a midshipman in the United States 

'\an, do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I \\'ill support and defend the 

Constitution of the United States against all enemies foreign and domestic; that 

I \\'ill bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, 

without any mental reservation or purpoM,' of evasion; and that I will well and 

faithtully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter, so help 

me God." 

Resignations and separations 

II vou enter the \Java! Academ\ directlv from civilian life, you assume ,1 

mii1tary obhgal1011 according to tl;e Agreement to Serve. Midshipmen who do 

not fulfill this agreement could be transferred to the l\!aval or Marine Corps 

Resef\'c in an enlisted status and ordered by the Secretary or the Navy to serve 

on active duty for a period not to exceed four years, as provided by Title IO, U.S. 

Code, Section 6959. However, in practice, the following policies currently apply 

lo midshipmen who enter the academy from a civilian status:

of classes of your second-class (junior) year, you are discharged from the

naval service.

aval Academy Preparatory School (NAPS) 

'\JAI>S offers a IO-month college preparatory course to regular and reserve 

l\.a1·v and l\larine Corps enlisted men and women who are seeking Naval 

Academy appointments. This program is designed to strengthen the academic 

background of incoming candidates. 1 a1·y and Marine Corps personnel who 

apply but are not appointed to the \Java! Academy are automatically 

considered for admission to NAPS. The academv also identifies a number of 

promising and highly motivated civilian candida.tes who are not successful on 

their first attempt at admission and offers them the opportunity to enlist in the 

aval Reserve for the express purpose of attending NAPS to prepare for 

admission to the Naval Academy. 

U.S. aval Academy Foundation 

The U.S. Naval Academy Foundation, Inc., also helps promising candidates 

who arc not appointed in their first try for admission. This nonprofit 

organization awards a limited number of scholarships for post-high school 

preparatory studies to enhance those candidates' qualifications for admission. 

The Naval Academ, .. s admissions board aulomaticalll· recommends 

candidates to the Fo�ndation for sponsorship considerati�n. No special 

request is required. 

Cash grants are made by the Foundation to the participating junior college or 

prep school selected. Parents of applicants are e:-.pected to contribute within 

their means. 
Other Considerations 

Appointments of women 

Since Congress authorized women to enter the sen ice academies in 1976, they 

have been full) integrated into the Brigade. 

Based on the needs of the \!avy and Marine Corps, women comprise about 15 

percent of each entering class. Admissions standards are the same as those for 

men, with the exception oi some allowances made for the physical differences 

between men and women. 

The academy offers women the same opportunities to excel as are e,tended to 

men: a challenging academic curriculum to promote intellectual de\·elopment; 

a physical train111g program to build strength, agility, endurance and 

self-confidence; and a military environment to develop discipline, militar) 

�kills and leadership. 

Previous candidates 

If you applied before but were not appo111ted to the Naval Academy, you may 

reapplv for admission with a sub�equent class. The application process is the 

same. ln general, we recommend you retake vour SAT or ACT tests. Also, if you 

are laking college or prep school courses, we suggest you take courses s11nilar 

to those required of first-year midshipmen. 

Readmission of former midshipmen 

Former midshipmen desiring to reenter the Naval Academy must obta1r1 a new 

nomination and requalify medically. In addition to Admissions Board action, 

the acadenw's Academic Board must agree to readmit Fonner midshipmen. 

Like any other candidate, you must not be pa�t rnur 26th birthday on Julv 1 of 

the year you would graduate from the academy to be eligible for consideration. 

RequC'sts should be addressed to the dean of admissions. 

International students 

In the interest of international and navy-to-navy relations, up to ,IQ students 

from certain foreign countries may be enrolled at the academy. The Department 

of Defense selects and notifies the countries that may nominate candidates. 

Selection of nominees 1s made by the academy.

freshman = f()urth class or plebe 

Sophomore = Third clJss or voungster 

Junior= Second class 

Sc111or = First class or lirst1c 

All \.aval Arnde1m students, men and women, arc called midshipmen, which 

is a rank between chiei warrant officer and ensign in the Na1y. A midshipman 

first class i, a se111or. The student body is the Brigade oi Midshipmen, or 

s1mph the brigade, and the na1·al sen·ice often is called the fleet. The brigade 

is divided into si, battalions. Si, companies make up each battalion, making a 

total of 36 companies. The midshipmen command structure, headed b1 a first 

class midshipm,1n chosen for outstanding leadership perform,111cc lo be 

brigade commander, is responsible ior much of the brigade's day-to-day 

act11 itics as well as the professional training of midshipmen. Overseeing all 

brigade actinties is the Commandant oi \lidshipmen, an active-duty l\.avy 

officer of captain's ran I,., or above. Working tor the C()mmandant, experienced 

\.avv and :--tanne Corps officers are assigned as company and battalion

Plebe Summer 

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

designed lo turn civilians into midshipmen. Plebe Summer is no gentle easing 

111to the military routine. Soon after entering the gate on Induction Day, you 

are put 111!0 uniform and taught how to salute by the first class midshipmen 

and officers who lead the plebe indoctrination program. For the next seven 

weeks, you start your days at dawn with an hour of rigorous exercise and end 

them long after sunset, wondering how you will make it through the next day. 

Forget television, leisure time or mo\'ies. You will have barely enough hours 

111 the day to finish your assigned plebe tasks. 

The frantic, exhausting pace of Plebe Summer leads you somewhere. It gets 

vou ready for your responsibilities when the brigade returns from summer 

training and the academic year begins. The summer also builds the foundation 

for the tangible and intangible qualities that make an outstanding naval 

officer. You learn self-discipline. You learn to organize your time and decide 

which things are most important. You reach top physical condition. You 

develop your ability to think clearly under stress and to react quickly when 

the unexpected comes your wa\'. Any officer who has stood the watch on the 

bridge of a ship 111 a storm or landed a jct on the deck of an aircraft carrier at 

night can tell you Lhe importance of these qualities. 

Plebe Summer introduces vou to the basic how-to's of the \/avy as well. 

Aboard Na\'al Academ) sailboats,) ou learn to respect the power of wind and 

current. In motor boats and ) ard patrol craft, you learn the basics of 

seamanship, navigation and boat handling. On the weapons range, you learn 

how to fire small arms safely and accurately. You also learn why we have 

high standards of honor, character and morality. And, you begin to develop 

vow· own ideas about leadership and the techniques that will make you an 

effective leader when your turn comes. 

Academic year 

\\'hen the upperclassmen return to the academy in late August to begin the 

academic year, you begin a routine that becomes very familiar during your 

four years. A typical weekday schedule looks something like this: 

5:30 a.m. 

6:30 a.111. 

6:30 - 7:00 a.m. 

7:00 a.m. 

7·10 a.m.

12:05 p.m. 

12:15 p.m. 

12:40-1:20 p.m. 

I :30 - 3:30 p.m. 

3:30 - 6:00 p.111.

7:30 - 11 p.111

When vou add to this schedule the lime required for mililMy duties, 

inspeclion preparation and e,tr.:i academic instruction, \ ou can see the 

demands on \'our time are considerable. 

Leadership Responsibility 

As 1·ou progress through the vcars al the acadenw, leadership re1.ponsibilities 

grow Each \'CM, vou and your classmates assume more 11nporlanl roles 111 

running , our com pan�, nmr battalion and the brigade. By the Lime you arc a 

first class midshipman, you are making da1h· decisions affecting the morale 

and performance of other m1dsh1pmen. You are teaching them the 

fundamentals of the naval profession and helping them through difficulties. 

You are leading them through personal example, communications, rewards 

and discipline and other techniques vou have learned in the classroom and 

through three vears' c,perience. Your leadership responsibilities also increase 

111 summer profcsswnal training. After learning what 1t is like to be a sailor 

aboard ship during youngster cruise, you undertake the duties of a junior 

officer during vour first-class summer assignment. 

You build vour leadership skill,; 111 these and other settings, where 1•ou can 

learn from mistakes and benefit from the guidance of seasoned Navy and 

'vlarine Corps officers. B) the time you take your position as a naval officer 

responsible for leading talented Sailors and Marines, you know what 

leadership techniques and st\'les work best for vou 111 different situations. 

Religious Activities 

The copper-green dome of Lhe Chapel towers over the other buildings in the 

Yard al the '\aval Academ} and, 111 a sense, serves as a symbol of Annapolis 

to the outside \\'orld. This is more than a coincidence. Over the decades of our 

histor�, fightmg Amencans ha,·e learned by experience that there is a 

d1mens1on tu military leadership 

- both in and out of combat -- that is 

es�ential to real effecti,·eness. This is the spintual factor, the 111tang1blc quality 

\\'e call moral courage. 

Protestant, Catholic, Jewish, Orthodox and Christian Scientist services, in both 

traditional and contemporary form, are held each week at the ac11dcmy. 

\,l1dsh1pmen also ma\' attend any of the churches in the community. V\lhile 

attendance at religious services is optional, midshipmen are reminded that as 

officers of the na\'al sen·ice their personal beliefs 1, ill often be tested and that 

in time of stress their subordinates \\'ill look lo them for spiritual as well as 

profcssion,11 guidance. The 'Java! Academy has long believed that future 

officers owe it lo themselves 11nd to those they \\'Ill lead to gain insights into 

moral, ethical and spiritual dimensions of military leadership. Midshipmen 

arc l'nrnuraged to lake full advantage of opportunities for worship and moral 

development at the ac,1dem\'. rrom the first clav of Plebe Summer until the 

da\ ,1f commhsioning four years later, the acaclen1\··s staff of se,·en chapla111s 

serves and ministers to the needs of the Brignde ol Midshipmen. Among other 

things, thev pn"'ide personal counseling, ranging from faith-centered issues 

through cnses of life and de11lh tn future marriage plans. 

In exerns111g a m1nistrv of 'presence" throughout the dail) life of the brigade, 

chaplains sponsor and parl1opate in Bible studies, prayer groups and religious 

1n�lruct1nn clas�es. They , isit 111 cnmpany areas and arc invoh·ed in a ho�l of

other brigade acth ities -- all of whid1 are designed to share and build lasting 

spiritual resources and to culti\'ate the strength and inspiration that comes 

from a deep!\ personal relationship \\ith God. 

Recreation 

All midshipmen are encouraged to take part in one or more of the academy's 

many clubs and e,tracurricular activities. For plebes especiallv, these activities 

help lo relie\'e the stress of academ.ics and the tough militar\' routine. After 

plebe ,•car, vour tree time increases to rela;,., pursue personal interests, date 

and e,plore the local area. There's much to see and do in Annapolis, Baltimore 

and \\'ashington, D.C. There also are many cultural, social and sports 

actl\·ities sponsored b) the acadenw. 

Spectator sports 

On <1utumn weekends, the excitement and color of '\/ayy tootball S\\'eeps I.he 

brigade. All m1Jshipmen attend home games in i\an·-Manne Corps 

l\lemorial Stadium. Groups of midshipmen also attend most awav games. The 

football sc.:isLm ends with the "hole brigade meering on the team in the 

traditional Anny-Navy game. There are 28 other \'arsit, N,n, teams to cheer 

on, ,,s "'ell. Outstanding spectator facilities bring nut enthusiastic 1\a\"\' 

supporters for almost every riv.:ilrv from wrestling and swimming to lacrosse, 

b,,sketball, soccer and baseball. 
Plebe Sponsor Program 

During Plebe Summer, every midshipman is 111troduced to an Annapolis-Meil 

Jamil) that has volunteered lo host midshipmen for dinners, local sightseeing, 

recreation and simple relaxation away from the demands of the Yard. Many 

sponsor relationships last long beyond the academ) years. 

Social events 

The Brigade \ctivit1es Committee plans several special weekends during the 

n•ar, 111dud111g events like the annual International Ball with voung guests 

from emba�w row in \<\1ash1ngton. l'vlidshipmen groups also plan and 

participate 111 theatrjcal e,·ents, concerts and dinners. Se111or na,·al officers Join 

midshipmen regular!) for traditional mess nights featuring formal rules ol 

nrdcr, formal toasts, skits and fines. lnd1v1dual companies of midshipmen 

,,ftt!n organize their mvn special activities on weekends. Certainly the 

highlight of our social calendar is Commissioning Week in Mav -- five d,iys of 

dances, garden parties, parades, concerts, sailing and a Blue Angels night 

Lkmon�tration leading to graduation and commissioning of midshipmen f1rst

Cultural Affairs Program 

We take advantage of our proximity to Washington, D.C., and Baltimore to 

arrange tickets and transportation to cultural events in those metropolitan 

areas. Plays, svmphonies, operas and ballets at Washington's Kennedy Center 

and other theatres are open to midshipmen from all classes. 

With the 1991 opening of the Bob Hope Performing Arts Center at Alumni 

J !all, the Naval Academy is able to provide a wide variety of theatrical and 

concert events to midshipmen. The Distinguished Artists Series, \\'hich 

presents performers of international renown, is the centerpiece of the 

program. Masqueraders productions, musicals, Glee Club concerts, Chapel 

organ recitals, popular music concerts, Naval Academy Band concerts and 

chamber music recitals round out the action-packed year of e\·enls. Many 

other cultural activities, including poetry readings and lectures by leading 

American authors, are offered at the academy. 

Extracurricular Activities 

Even with a m1dsh1pman's demanding academic and athletic schedule, you 

will have lime for extracurricular acti\ ities (ECAs). V\'e have more than 70 that 

gl\ c midshipmen a chance to share recreational, professional and athletic 

interests. Most of the ECAs are run by midshipmen.

Degree A warded 

Lpon graduation, you are awarJed a bachelor of science degree, regardless of 

your m,1jor, becau�e of the technical content of the core curriculum. Those in the 

top 10 percent of their class graduate with distinction. Those \\'ho have completed <special honors program� in one of si, selected majors graduate with 

honors. 

Educational Philosophy 

The i\a\'al Academy's philosophy ot education stresses .:ittent,on to individual 

students by highll' qualified facult) members who are strong!) committed to 

teaching. You won't get lost in the classroom at the Na\'al Academy. Classes are 

small, generally ranging in size from 10 to 22 students. Even the core courses 

re<juired of all midshipmen are di\'idcd into small sections. You get individual 

attention from your instructor. In science and engineering courses, the same 

professor who lectures 111 the classroom supervises experiments in the lab. This 

contrasts sharply with most uni\·ersities, \\'here scholars ma) address their 

students in huge lecture halls, but direct contact with undergraduates 111 lnbs or 

discussion sections is delegated to graduate assistants. All courses at the l\aval 

Academ) are taught and graded b) faculty members, not by graduate 

assistants.

l:ducallon 1s the key lo success and leadership I believe that a good lc,1der is an

g1n,n the opportunity lo gel an academic cducallon and lo get an education ,1bout 

proper conduct, mihlary performance, honor and phvsical fitness. That is what 

d1st1nguishcs the '\a,JI Academv from other cidlian uni,·Nsities - the opporlunitv 

tor the highest-qualilv, comprehensi,·t> college education. 

The academll" program al the acadenw prnvides the opportu111tv for midshipmen 

to de\'!,lc,p sclf-d1scipline, self-confidence and conceptual knowledge. Our core 

curriculum balances technical and non-technical subjects and has received national 

acclaim tor its breadth and its depth. The knowledge base offered br the '\aval 

Aradcmv will gl\·e our students many immeasurable allribulcs of character, the 

most 1mporlanl ol "'hich include ,elf-confidence, the abilil) lo make informed 

d!'cismns, and to be knowledgeable and compassionate leaders in the \.an' anti 

1\l,1rinc Corps. Th,· c.!evelopmcnt of character, strong moral values, and a dedication 

lo du what 1s right arc all part of the four year experience here.

Advanced Education 

Postgraduate education is encouraged for all nm·al officers and is practically a 

requirement 111 today's Navv and Marine Corps, which operate vcrv 

,ophisticated systems in a changing, complex world. Nearly all graduates go to 

advanced professional training en route lo their first duty assignments. :\iew 

Manne Corps officers go to The Basic School at Quantico, Va. Navy ensigns go 

lo surface wariare officer school, nuclear power school, flight training or other 

schools, depending on their chosen specialty and the nature of their first 

a�signmenl. Profo%ional training continues throughout your career. 

There also are several ways for Naval Academy graduates to earn advanced 

academic degrees besides the Voluntary Graduate Education Program (VGEP) 

discussed on page 53. Most officers arc automatically considered for graduate 

school as they complete their first duly assignment. If selected, they can enter 

master's degree pwgrams al the Naval Postgraduate School in :Vlonterey, Calif., 

or al an approved civilian university. Midshipmen with outstanding academic 

records can compete for a number of scholarships for postgraduate sd1ool right 

atter graduation from the Naval Academy or after an initial operational 

assignment. There's also a program for up to 15 graduates a year who want to 

combine careers in medicine and the Navy. To prepare for this program, 

midshipmen usually major in chemistry and then enter civilian or armed forces 

medical schools soon after graduation and commissioning. 

The folio" ing graduate education programs are currently available:

Naval Architecture Major 

The na\',11 architecture ma1or 1s accredited by the Engine,•ring Accr,•dll,1hon Commission of the 

Accred,tahun Board for Engineering and Technology. The major is unlike most engineering 

disnplmes that arl' urnfied b1 tlw n,1l11re nf the phenomena mvoln:d This m,1jor t>riginalh· came 

into bemg as a discipline because 01 a single end-product, !he sh,p . .\ spl'ci,11 combin,1tion of 

knowledge and c,p,,riencc is needed to de,·elop, design and build th,s single product. \'ariet, 

exists not onh· in the kinds of work (design, research, cosl-eslimation, management), but ulso 111 

the h-pes ol era JI involved - from sailboats to aircraft earners, hvdrnfoil boats lo calamar,rns ami

=--:a,·al architects use both art and engmeenng ,n desig111ng ships. Armed with imagination and 

e>.penence. thc'y com·ert functional requirements into a suitable, cost-effe,·t,ve design. The,· 

anah1e and SC'lecl the best dimensions and hull form, calculate the power requirements and 

estimate the weights of the principal components. Thc1 design and anah·zc the hull structure and 

decide on the k>calion of military sub-systems, machinerv spaces, accommodat,ons and stores. 

Additional I), th,, ship must be divided into watertight compartments so that, if damaged, the 

chances of sun·ival are ma'1mized l\eighing and compromJSing all such co11flicting needs 111 the

Ocean Engineering Major 

Ocean engineering 1s the ke1 lo the last tronlier on earth - the ocean depths. Ocean scientists haw 

prtl\'1ded us with a basic knowledge of the ocean environment; it is up to the ocean engineer to 

,1pplv modern engineering principles to enable us to work 1n and use this ennronment more 

dfectivelv By blending the fundamentals of mathematics, physics, materials science and 

occanographv with the basic elements of ci,•,I, mechanical and electrical engineering, the ocean 

engineer is able to apply engineering techniques to ocean materials, po\\'er 51•stems, acoustics, 

wave mechanics, life support systems, ocean en\'ironmental concerns, ocean energy and a wide 

variety ,,t ocean ,·eh1cles and offshore ,rnd coastal stmctures. 

The ocean engineering ma1or is accredited by the Engineering Accr,:,d1tation Commission of the 

Accreditatinn Board fur Engineering and Technology. The major offers an integrated program oi 

studv, usin!?, a balance between classroom theory, laborator\' work and practical application 

pnwid1ng midshipmen with the background to worl-- ettecti\'eh as ocean engineers. Laboratory 

c•>.periments an? conducted in the 120-foot and 380-fool \\"a\'(• and towing tanks and coastal 

engmecring basin. The,e are equipped "·ith pneumatic wave-makers and instrumented with 

,ophisticalcd sensors and on-line data acquisition and analysis equipment. A circulating w,1le>r 

channel, hyperbaric tcsl facility and an en\'ironmental chamber are also a,·ailablc The '\Ja\'al 

Acadenw·s computer s\'stems are used in soll'ing design problems and preparing computer-aided 

designs. Super\'ising, direcllng and teaching this program is a team of professionals recogn1zed 

for pro,·iding one of the finest undergraduate majors in ocean engineering m·aitable in the 

country A bachelor of science in ocean engineering is awarded

Department of Oceanography 

Oceanography Major 

The oceanographv major gi\'es future na, al officers practical and theoretical knowledge of the 

ocean environment and builds a sound academJC foundation for future graduate study in any 

tL'chnical discipline. •\n mlerdtSciplinan science major, oceanography involves the study of 

mcteorologv, gcophvs1cs, plws1cs, chemisti,·, biology and g('()logy as they relate to the ocean 

environment. Basic wurses in these areas are prerequisites for more advanced oceanographv and 

meteorology courses. Students take courses in geophysical Ouid dvnamics, sound propagation in 

tlw ocean, the study ol waves and ltdes and the use oi satellites in oceanography. A course in 

advanced biological oceanograplw offers a glunpse of the undersea world and its marine 

creatures; svnoptic meteornlogy courses involve hands-on weather forecasting e�perience using 

the latest tools available. 

�lore than 25 percent of the required course load is within the oceanographv specialty Other 

courses include advanced mathematics, necessary to describe the comple, behavior of Ouid 

env1ron111ents. 

The "Java! Academy boasts the most extensi\'e undergraduate oceanographic facilities in the 

counlr) Located al the mouth of the Se,·ern River, the I lendrix Oceanography Laboratory is a 

multi-function enclosure featuring a wet laboraton where students interact ,nth the world·s 

largest estuary, the Chesapeake Bay The academv's research vessel enables midshipmen to collect 

samples and oceanographic data anoat and deliver them to Hendrix Lab. Another laboratoncomple, in Rickover Hall houses the geological, biological, chem1c,ll, general oceanographic and remote 

sensing laboralones. The meteorological laboratory has an c,n-line receiver to dLSplav charts from the 

'\lational Oc-eanic and Ahnospheric Administration and the '\laval Oceanographv Command, direct 

access lo the I \'orld /\ leteorological Orgamzatfon's data network, a color weather radar displav and a 

high resolution satellite n."'Ceivcr, all of whid1 can be accessed via cc,rnputer workstations. Students use 

all of the,;c facilities in required courses as well as in their electives.

Physics Major 

The ma1or program in phvs,cs presents fundamental physical concepts ,ind principles in such a 

manner as to emphasize their general usefulness and la\'s ., strong foundation for further work 111 

a broad range ul technical t,elds. The challenge of physics lies 111 uni ling 1ls laws and definitions, 

expressed through mathematics, with the inlegrath·e reasoning so essential 111 modeling and 

,ul\'lng new problems. A bacht'lur uf scil'nce degree is awarded. 

Some of the topics treated 111 the sequence of courses are the origin, propagallon and reception of 

wa,·es oi all kinds, field concepts, theory of relali\'ily, mechanics, electromagnetic theory and 

quantum mechanics. All are studied with the object of dc,·eluping an open-minded and creative 

approach lo the physical world and problem solving - an approach increasingly important to 

those wlw will be the leaders 111 the l\a\'y of the future. The physics major is excellent background 

for most llf the major \la\'y and \,larinc career paths, and recent phvsics major graduates have 

chllsen the nuclear power program, "\Javv air, surface line and the Marine,. Opportunillcs for 

work toward ad\'anccd degrees .lrl' il\'ailable to qualified physics majors prior to graduation, 

,mmediatch after graduation and later in their careers.

Navy heavyweight crews captured the Olympic gold medal for eight-oared 

shells al Antwerp, Belgium, in 1920, and in Helsinki, Finland, in 1952. The 

heavyweight crew has won the Jim Ten Eyck Trophy (for overall team 

performance) al the Intercollegiate Rowing Association Championships six 

limes in recent years, including 1993. 

In addition to the medal-winning crews, Navy athletes over the years ha,·e been 

frequent medal winners in the Olympics. Lloyd Keaser, a 1972 graduate, won 

a silver medal in wrestling in the 1976 Olympics, and David Robinson earned 

a Bronze Medal in men's basketball at the 1988 games in addition to the Gold in 

1992. 

Midshipmen teams in men's basketball, men's cross country, women's cross 

country, lacrosse, rifle, soccer, women's swimming, water polo and women's 

volleyball have all earned berths in NCAA championship competition in the 

past decade. 

The Naval Academy's sailing leam provides midshipmen with opportunities to 

develop leadership and seamanship skills through competition in numerous 

intercollegiate and private regattas. Competition ranges from single-handed 

Lasers to 50-foot ocean racers with a crew of 14. The academy sponsors many 

of these regattas, including the McMillan Cup and the John F. Kennedy 

Memorial Regatta.

propulsion after graduation as described on the ne,t page. You then go to 

Navv Submarine School in New London, Conn., for the 10-week submarine 

offic�rs basic course. Your first tour of dutv with an attack or fleet ballistic 

missile submarine lasts about 36 months. 

· 

In a nuclear submarine, junior officers lead divisions of 15 to 20 men. You 

have responsibilities in a vital area of operations such as engineering, 

weapons or communications. You also stand watches and work to qualih· as 

engineering officer of the watch, diving officer and officer of the deck - all 

steps towards earning the gold dolphins of a Navy submarine officer. 
Nuclear Propulsion 

The '\an,.� demanding and h1ghl�· techrncal nuclear po\\"er training program 

ts among the best in the wc,rld Those chosen lor the program usually rank 

high in their class and have a solid background in scientific and technical 

courses, though not ncccssanh ma1ors 111 these areas. 

M,d�hipmen who choose �urface warfare can join those choosing submilrines 

in pursuing a sub-specialty in nuclear propulsion systems. If you arc accepted 

into the nuclear power program, vou report to '-Juclear Power School in 

Orlando, l'la., for six months ot schooling following graduation from the 

academ�·- You then train for six nwnths at one of se,·eral nuclear reactor 

prototype sites located throughout the country before reporting to your first 

ship. 

All of the '\m·y's submarines are nuclear powered. Nuclear surface �hips 

include guided missile cruisers and aircraft carriers, and nuclear trained 

surface warfare officers alternate between these and convent1onally pm,·ered 

,hips as the� ad,·ance in their careers. 

Naval Aviation 

Whether it's landing an F/ A-18 Hornet on the deck of an aircrait carrier, 

hunting an enemy submarine Ill the '\forth Atlantic in a P-3 Orion or 

marn.w,-ering an SH-60F helicopter in a rescue operation, na\'al aviators are 

constantly called upon to perform under pressure. When you are assigned to 

this career path, you can select training as a pilot or a na,·al flight officer. 

Pilots fly aircraft while na, al flight officers ser\'e as bombardiers, navigators, 

radar and electronic intercept officers and antisubmarine \\'arfare systems 

specialists.

Special Operations and Special Warfare 

Speoal Operations, the newest warfare communitv was apprO\·ed by the 

Secretar) ot the /\Jan• in Jul� 1978, in recognition of a need for 1,ustained, 

progressive, cost effective and ready capability in four tunctional areas: 

bplosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD), Mme Countermeasures (MCM), 

Operational Diving and Sah-age (ODS), and Explosive Ordnance Management 

([0\1). E,plosi,·e Ordnance and dil'ing provide the common base which 

a<;sures compatibilit) of the fom functional areas. Special Operations offers 

men and \\'Omen an e,citing career and command opportunitv in a small 

specialized community. 

Special \\'arfare provides qualified officers the opportunity to be a member of 

one of the \\'orld's elite fighting forces. As a branch of the U.S. Special 

Operations I orces, Na,-y SEALS are known and respected around the world. 

Restricted Line and Staff Corps Specialties for men 

\,lidsh,pmen who are not physically qualified to serve in the warfare areas but 

who can be commissioned as actil·e duh officers can choose from a wide 

,·ariety of alternati\'eS and pursue a caree� all the way to the flag officer rank 

of admiral. Restricted line and staff corps officers make careers in the fields of 

intelligence, cryptology, oceanography, medicine, civil engineering, supply 

and aYiation ma111lenance. Thev serl'e aboard ships, \\ith aircraft squadrons 

and at shore bases around the world. Graduating midshipmen who are 

accepted to medical school may be commissioned in the Medical Corps even if

achieve and maintain a "margin of excellence" in special programs for the 

Brigade of Midshipmen that cannot be met with appropriated (government) 

funds. Donors include Na\ al Academy alumni, parents of both midshipmen 

and graduates, corporations, foundations and friends of the academy. Private 

support has been provided for virtually every area from academics to 

athletics, from sail training to buildings. A recently completed $24 million 

campaign provided over $17 million for academy's new Alumni Hall and 

helped create endowments in the areas of academic excellence and 

midshipmen extracurricular activities. The ongoing fund-raising activities are 

providing the hinds to help build the new visitor's center complex and to 

build the new baseball clubhouse and locker room complex. 

Naval Academy Athletic Association 

The Naval Academy Athletic Association (NAAA) promotes and finances the 

academy's intercollegiate athletic program, which is one of the largest athletic 

programs of any college or uni\'ersity in the United States. NAAA is 

responsible for the coad1ing, equipping, travel and lodging, promotion, 

ticketing and administrative support of all 29 varsity sports. NAAA also 

operates and maintains Navy-Marine Corps Memorial Stadium, a golf course 

and other athletic facilities for the academy. 

As another service, NAAA operates the Armel-Leftwich Visitor Center and 

Tour Guide Service. Any profits from these operations go to the Naval Academy's Memorial Fund, which supports special e\'ents and activities of the 

bngade. NAAA works actively with outstanding high srnool student-athletes 

who are interested in applying to the Naval Academy. NAAA coaches recruit 

young men and women according to the rules and regulations of the National 

Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA). 

Membership in NAAA is open to all Navy sports fans. NAAA's main offices 

are in Ricketts Hall, next to the Visitors Center. 

Naval Academy Sailing Foundation 

The Naval Academ� Sailing Foundation was organized in 1973 to support the 

academy's sailing program. Through the foundation, yachts can be donated 

for use in midshipmen sail training and competition. Such donations also have 

created an endowment that helps support the sailing program. The executive 

director of the foundation has an office in the Naval Academy's Robert Crown 

Sailing Center. 

aval Academy Museum 

Located in Preble Hall, the Naval Academy Museum contains historic objects 

and works of art relating to some of the most important episodes in our 

nation's history. Its collection of more than 50,000 items includes ship models, 

paintings, prints, uniforms, medals, weapons, manuscripts and other evidence 

of famous naval officers, ships and nationally significant events The exhibits 

in Preble Hall are open to the public seven days a week. The Museum 

maintains records on all the historic monuments in the Yard and the artifacts 

shown in the crypt of John Paul Jones, Memorial Hall and other academy 

buildings. Two new galleries in the Museum feature the outstanding Henn· H. 

Rogers Collection of wooden ship models dating from the 17th century and 

numerous bone ship models. The Beverley R. Robinson Collection of Naval 

Prints provides more than 5,000 images of ships and 5ea battles and is now 

mailable on video laser disc, along with 15,000 additional pictures covering 
na\·al and Naval Academy histllry. The Museum contains weapllns carried by 

Captains Stephen Decatur and Oliver Hazard Perry, Admiral David Farragut's 

plan for the Battle of \,Jobile Bay, Admiral George Dewey's uniform, the 

official class ring collection, thl' table used on the battleship ,\l1,s011n to sign 

the surrender dllcuments ending World\\ ar II in the Pacific, and nags carried 

to thL' moon b\ academ1 alumni The Museum collection is a rich resource for 

study and res�arch by r{,_idshipmen, faculty and visiting scholars. 

U.S. aval Institute 

In 1873 the l.J.S. '\laval Institute was founded to ad\ ancc professional, literary 

and scientific knowledge in the na\·al and maritime ser\'ices. Headquartered 

on the grounds of the Naval ,\cademy, the Na\·al Institute serves as the '\laval 

Academy's uni\·ersity press, publish mg te,ts on professional subjects, training 

guides and manuals, scientific and technical works and studies in naval 

history. The Naval Institute also publishes popular works and some fiction, 

such as the best-sellers The l-/1rnl for Red October and Flight of the /11/ruder.

\:early I00,000 members of the Nm·aJ Institute receive the monthh· 

professional journal, Procced1Hg,, and are entitled to purchase Naval Institute 

Press books at reduced prices. In addition, '\laval Institute members receive 

discounts on /\/nm/ History magazine, professional seminars, ship and aircraft 

photos, and naval art prints. The Na\'al lnstitute's main offices, bookstore and 

research librarv are located in Preble Hall and are open to the public. Annual

Appendix A: Medical Considerations 

The Department of Defense Medical Examination Review Board (DODMERB) 

in Colorado Springs, Colo., schedules your medical examination and evaluates 

your medical condition very carefully before you can be offered an 

appointment to the Naval Academy. This is to determine whether you have a 

medical condition that might interfere with, or be aggravated by, the 

academy's rigorous program or bar you from unrestricted service as an officer 

111 the Navy or Marine Corps. 

rvtajor medical considerallons are summarized here so that you and your 

physician and dentist can anticipate whether you meet the basic requirements 

for admission to the academy. This is NOT a comprehensive listing of all 

disqualifying conditions, but rather a brief and general guide for your 

convenience. 

Waivers 

Some medical requirements can be waived for candidates who otherwise are 

highlv qualified. The report of your medical examination is reviewed carefully 

and you receive a written summary of the results. lf you have a disqualifying 

condition but would like us to consider your application further, you may 

request a waiver of the standard by writing to the admissions board at the 

academy. If vour ad1nissions record is competitive, the board asks DOD�B 

to prepare your medical file for waiver consideration. DODMERB ma) ask 

vou to provide amplifying information on the condition or to undergo 

evaluation by a medical specialist. DODMERB reviews all of the available 

111formation and may seek independent review and an advisory opinion from 

the staff of the Bureau of Medicine and Surgery in \

11/ashington. If your 

condition may be waived, and not all conditions may, your entire record is 

reconsidered by the admissions board. The board grants a waiver if your 

record suggests you have greater potential for success as a midshipman and 

naval officer than do competing candidates who are medically qualified. 

Medical history 

DODI\ !ERB will review your medical history for information on illnesses, 

mjuries, surgery, familial diseases and other factors that could affect your 

phvsical condition. You might be asked to submit additional reports and or 

records from phvsicians or hospitals. Correctable problems, including dental 

defects, should be taken care of before your e,ammation for the !\:aval 

Academy. 

Eyes and vision 

This is the most common problem area for candidates. Our basic requirement 

for adm1ss1on is normal (20/20) uncorrected , isual acuih in each e,·e. The 

admissions board automaticallv considers waiver of the vis"ual acuity standard 

for candidates who are olhcn�isc medicall� qualified, who have e'-.ceptional 

scholastic and leadership potential, and who meet the following additional 

requirements: 

• , ision corrects to 20/20 in each eye with eyeglasses (not contact lenses);

• refractive error does not exceed 6.00 diopters in any meridian 111 either

eye;
• astigmatism dot's not c'\c,•cd 3.00 diopters in either en•; and 

• th,• d1ffenmc,• 111 refract1n· error bd\\'et·n the two cn·s does not e'\cccd

1.'ill diopters.

Aga111, II the 1111/11 problem is that niur 1111n>rrcrf,•,/, isual acu1t� 1s 1wt normal,

The minimum qualifying height is 62 inches for men and 60 inches for women, 

and Lhe maximum qualifying height for all candidates is 78 inches. Waivers 

may be granted by the admissions board to a limited number of exceptional 

candidates \\'hose height exceeds this standard. 

The minimum qualifying weight (by height) standards are listed in the table 

above. Because of substantial variation in candidates· body composition, \\'e 

do not use a maximum weight (by height) standard. Instead of maximum 

weight, the qualifying standard is body fat percentage: no more than 25 

percent for men and 35 percent for women. To help candidates, howe\'er, we 

adopted a table of maximum screening weights that will approximate a bod) 

fat percentage slightly less than the maximum acceptable. lf your weight is at 

least the minimum and not more than the maximum shown for your height on 

the table above, we will assume that your body fat percentage is acceptable. 

If vour weight exceeds that shown in the table as the ma'.\imum for your 

height, DODMERB will ask you to provide several measurements (if these 

were not recorded at the time of vour initial physical examination) from which 

your body fat percentage \\'ill be estimated. DODMERB will provide clear 

instructions for these simple measurements. You may ask your gym teacher 

(perhaps when you take vour Physical Aptitude Examination), your Blue and 

Gold Officer, a coach, or your school nurse to take the measurements. 

Obesity will not be waived. If you exceed the body fat percentage standard on 

Induction Day, you should not expect lo be allowed to enter the academ� 
Heart and vascular system 

These cond1t1ons are disqualifying: uncorrected septa! defect; congenital, 

rheumatiL, or other abnurmalit\' of the heart ,·alves or major ,·essels; abnormal 

heart rate or rhythm; blood pressure predominant!\· in the range of 1-10/90 or 

greater; severe or symptomatic ,·aricose veins; and mitral , alve prolapse 

\\'hich has either caused S\'lnploms or been associated with rhythm 

disturbance or regurgitation. 

[ars and hearing 

Both cars must be free of tympanic perforation and acute and chronic disease. 

The average of the hearing loss at 500, 1000 and 2000 Hz in either ear ma) not 

l'Xceed 30 decibels (150), and the loss at any one of these three frequencies 

ma, not exceed 35 decibels. The ma,imum acceptable loss in either ear at 3000 

I !z 1s -15 decibels and at -1000 I lz, 55 decibels. 

Respiratory system 

H1storv of asthma, recurrent asthmatic bronchitis, exercise-induced 

bronchospasm or reactive airway di�ease by any other name is disqualifying. 

S,mplomalic nasal polyps, severe hay fever, and tuberculosis (if active within 

two 1·ears) will also result in rejection. Nasal septa! de\'iation, hypertrophic 

rhinitb, and other conditions which cause significant reduction of Oow 

through either airway or which interfere with drainage of a sinus are 

disqualifying. Allergy immunotherapy, unless established al a monthly 

maintenance le,·el and expected to be discontinued no more than two years 

after matriculation, is disqualifying. 

Musculoskeletal system 

Lmurnted fractures, history ot surgery to a maJor joint within sh, months, 

histnr1 ol derangement of any ma1or joint not corrected by surgery or 

evidence of instability subsequent to surger�, history of anterior cruciilte 

ligJment inJLiry, certain reta111ed orthopaedic fixation devices, arthritis, severe 

scoliosi�, symptomatic structural abnormalities of the spinal column, and 

herrnated nucleus pulpos1s or hi5tory of spinal surgery for this or any other 

wndition are disqualifying. 

155 
156 

Genitourinary system 

Persislence of protein (except documented benign orthostatic proteinuria), 

sugar, or red or white blood cells in the urine is disqualifying, as are 

bedwett111g continuing into adolescence and a history of recurrent or bilateral 

kidney stones. Severe congenital or developmental anomalies, honnonal 

disorders, neoplastic conditions, persistent or recurrent infections, and certain 

complications of infections are cause for rejection. An undescended testicle is 

disqualifying, as are pregnancy, endometriosis and severe dysmenorrhea. 

Gastrointestinal system 

H1storv of peptic ulcer, gall bladder disease, regional enteritis (Crohn's 

Disease), ulcerative colitis or any other inflammatory bowel disease is 

Jisqualifving. 

Neuropsychiatric disorders 

Seizure disorders (except febrile convulsions in childhood), degenerative 

conditions, vascular or other kinds of recurrent or severe headaches and 

severe motion sickness susceptibility are disqualifying. History of psychosis or 

affective illness, personality disorder or immaturity, stammering or stuttering, 

eating disorders such as bulimia and anorexia, attention deficit or learning 

disorders/ disabilities, lwperactivity, and sleepwalking persisting into 

adolescence also are disqualifying. 

Skin 

Chronic disea�es such as psoriasis, atopic dermatitis and eczema are cause for 

re1ection Severe acne 1s disqualifving until successfully treated. If a course of 

Accutane is undertaken, this should be completed, with documentation of a 

favorable outcome, prior to acceptance. Pilonidal sinus, if e\·idenced by a 

discharging mass, is cause for rejection unless repaired successfully. 

Other disqualifying conditions 

Some other disqualifying conditions indude abdominal wall hernia, until 

repaired; removal of the spleen for most reasons except trauma; anemia; 

abnormal bleeding states; diabetes mellitus; sickle cell disease (sickle cell trait 

and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency are 1101 disqualifying); any 

active communicable infection; generalized reaction to stinging insect venom; 

family history of malignant hyperthermia; allergy to common foods requiring 

special d1etarv considerations; history of drug abuse or alcohol dependence; 

and e'\posure to the virus associated with AIDS (Acquired lmmune Deficiency 

Syndrome). A blood Lest for the presence of AIDS virus antibodies, an alcohol 

breath test, and a urine test for drugs are performed on lnduction Day at the 

Naval Academy; a confirmed positive result in am of these leads to 

disqualtfication without possibilit} of a waiver. 

Dental standards 

Except for minor or questionable areas, you should have all required dental 

treatment completed before your medical e,amination. Missing teeth caus111g 

reduced masticatnry (chewing) or incisal (biting) efficiency must be replaced 

by well-designed bridges, partial dentures, or implants in good condition. If 

you are undergoing active orthodontic treatment which will not be completed 
prior to vnur entry into the \Ja\'al Academ,·, ,·ou may requt:'st a w,1i,·t:'r. Do 

not ha,·(' braces remm·ed prior to completion of treatment unless ,1dvised by 

tht:' '\a,al Academ). 

Otlwr disqualifving dental conditions include: 

• 1nfecllons or chronic dist:'ases ol the suit lis�ue ot the oral cavit1;

• marked malocclusion that requires t:'arly or prolonged treatment, involves

tissue impingement on either the facial or lingual/ palatal gingi, a, llr 111

some other \\'ay jeopardizes dental health;

• unsat1sfaclorv restorations, bridges, dentures, or implants;

• se,·t:'re or e·-.tcnsl\·c apical or penodonlal mtect1on;

• perforations from the oral ca\"it� into the nasal ca,·ih or ma,illary sinus;

and

• tumors or cysts ol the oral tissues lhal can be e"pected to require

treatment in the foreseeable future.

Concluding comments 

As 1·ou \\'111 realize from the foregoing summary, the physical examination for 

adm1sswn lo the '\a\'al Academ, is comprehensive, and the medical and 

dental standards are e,acting. This is necessary because our goal is for every 

1111dsh1pman to be able lo anticipate unrestricted opportunities for 

commissioned service after graduation. For most candidates, the physical 

examination prncess will require no more than a single visit to a plwsician's 

and a dentist's office. For llthers, questions 1, ill arise that may necessitate a 

,arietv of additional e\'aluations. \\'e kno\\' this can become time-consuming 

but we hope vou will understand the reason for concern. The questions 

Tl'soh·e fal'(>rably for the majonly of candidates, and waiver of the standard(s) 

is ollen possible when documentah.on of a disqualifying condition in an 

111di, idual candidate supports the e,pedal1on of unrestricted sen·ice (see 

discussion on page I 'i2). Staff members al DOD\.IERB and in the admissions 

oll1ce \\'ill assist 111 e,·ery 1, ay possible.
