The Service Academy Exchange Program (SAEP) is an exciting option for cadets in their third year of study. Through this program, cadets can spend a semester at one of USMA’s sister federal service agencies: the U.S. Naval Academy, U.S. Air Force Academy, or the U.S. Coast Guard Academy, fostering camaraderie among the institutions and providing cross-training opportunities for its participants. There are strict requirements to participate in this program: Cadets must achieve a 3.0 or higher in their academic, military, and physical GPA. Cadets apply for the program in January of their second year.
