For high school students considering USMMA, challenging (AP-level) math and science courses are extremely helpful. Although the academy does not accept AP scores, familarity with calculus and advance Physics will help you a great deal in your freshman year.

The education midshipmen receive at Kings Point is second to none. But what makes this institution unique is the character that it instills in its student body. In general, you'll find the typical Kings Point graduate a very positive, energetic, can-do type of person.

I currently have a very satisfying carreer with a major aero-space defense contractor, and at the same time I've built a small real-estate empire valued at roughly 7 million dollars. I credit Kings Point for most of this. A common sentiment held by many of my classmates is, "If I can graduate from this place, I can do anything!".
