Carlsbad, CA – Army and Navy Academy congratulates the Class of 2025! This year’s graduates have been accepted to 98 unique institutions, including top universities, U.S. service academies, and all five senior military colleges, and have collectively earned more than $4.2 million in scholarships for their academic, athletic, and leadership accomplishments.

In addition to these prestigious institutions, Cadets received offers from many of the nation’s top public and private research universities.
