Résumé (optional)

It is advised, but not mandatory, to submit a résumé. Tell us about your activities, sports, volunteer work and leadership positions. We look for students who are motivated, value service to others and show initiative.

Admissions essay (optional)

An essay strengthens your application. It should be short—one page is ideal. We recommend you use this essay to highlight something we don’t know about you.

Letters of recommendation (optional)

Letters from teachers, coaches, counselors, JROTC instructors or employers are optional but strongly recommended. Two is an ideal number.

SAT Scores (optional)
