Applying to the U.S. Military Academy at West Point is a long and arduous process that starts junior year of high school, or even earlier.

Applicants are required not only to have stellar test scores, but to be in top physical condition, show outstanding character, and come carrying a letter of recommendation from a U.S. Senator or Congressman.

Acceptance alone is an impressive feat, but these 14 students go above and beyond the call of duty and show what it means to be a student at America's finest military academy.
