Trends in Admission Variables Through the Class of 1979

Abstract

The United States Military Academy uses the Whole Man concept in the selection of candidates for admission. This concept encompasses three broad areas: scholastic, leadership potential, and physical condition and aptitude. The entrance scores for each of these areas are compared with previous classes. The American College Testing Program scores were used to admit 394 cadets to the Class of 1979. These scores are included and are shown with the previous three years in which the ACT scores were used. The College Board scores and other admission variables are shown for a ten year period.
