Even though the past year has been tough because of COVID restrictions, I have had overall a pretty good time at West Point. The people here are mainly what makes it worth it--I've made friends that I know will last a lifetime. There are also endless opportunities (both during the semester and summer), especially if you want to get involved with research as an undergraduate. I have been able to publish my research in well known journals and conduct research alongside experts professors in the field I hope to pursue graduate school. The academics are not too hard, but it is very hit or miss in the core classes, because the instructors are randomly assigned and you don't get to choose. You might end up with someone not that great. However, in the upper division classes in the major, instructors are amazing and passionate about the subject. I really enjoy most parts about West Point and I look forward to commissioning as an army officer!
I think that coming to West Point definitely is a sacrifice, and you have to understand that you simply can't have some of the same experiences as the typical college student. You have to come here motivated to get through Beast, spend the first 2 years being a follower and observing different kinds of leadership, and then attack the leadership role you are given come junior and senior year to experiment with your own leadership style that you may implement in the Army as a 2LT. Everyone has their own group of close friends and company-mates that make the tough journey a little bit easier. I have not completed my 47-month journey yet, and there have already been some very trying times, but almost every single graduate you meet tells you that the sacrifices were worth it. One important piece of advice I would give is to stay off Jodel! If you think you're up for the challenge, come join the Long Gray Line.
It is super easy to get help from instructors with online learning! All my instructors were extremely willing to take time out of their day to provide additional instruction and teach the concepts I needed further explanation. The experience is typically interactive, so it keeps me engaged when listening in class. The instructors try to make the class less lecture based so that we are actively participating and taking part in enhancing our understanding of the material.
