Below are the Army and Navy Academy graduation requirements for cadets entering in the 9th grade. Cadets entering in 10th or 11th grade must take 6 courses per semester and must meet all requirements, except for grade-specific courses taken prior to their entrance to ANA. Because Army and Navy Academy aligns itself with the requirements for entry into the University of California system, we require that both D’s and F’s in core academic subjects be remediated to passing grades (C or above) through attending summer programs, retaking the class at ANA, or taking Academy-approved independent study classes.
The Army and Navy Academy uses the standard Carnegie Unit and Student Hour guidelines. The Carnegie Unit is a strictly time-based reference for measuring educational attainment used by American universities and colleges; the Carnegie Unit assesses secondary school attainment. Per its original definition, the Carnegie Unit is 120 hours of class or contact time with an instructor over the course of a year at the secondary (American high school) level.
*The JRTOC/Leadership and Education Training program prepares high school students for leadership roles while making them aware of their rights, responsibilities, and privileges as American citizens. It is a stimulus for promoting graduation from high school and it provides instruction and rewarding opportunities which will benefit the student, community, and nation.
Leadership in Military Program:
A fundamental tenet of ANA is its firm belief in the traditional military experience. As cadets, all aspects of life at the Academy incorporate the military program. Cadets are in uniform and serve in leadership positions 24 hours per day, 7 days per week. The Corps of Cadets is organized as a battalion, a typical military structure with promotions based on academic achievement, conduct, proven leadership abilities, dependability, sportsmanship, and adherence to the Academy's values.
Character Development:
Character education is integrated throughout the entire curriculum, thus increasing the cadet's critical thinking skills and solidifying moral concepts. Cadets learn character and responsibility through leading others. The cadet leaders, because they are in direct control of other cadets, have a unique opportunity to be responsible. Their actions affect not only themselves but also other people in their close-knit community. They can be a positive, constructive influence in the development of a younger cadet.
The Academy sponsors and encourages a range of religious programs. Sunday services for Protestant and Roman Catholic cadets are conducted through arrangements with two retired US Navy Chaplains. There are Christian cadet organizations that sponsor weekly evening Bible studies. Non-Christian religious needs are addressed through the use of members of the faculty and staff and community members of those faiths acting as sponsors.
