What is the male to female ratio at the US Coast Guard Academy?

I'm considering applying to the US Coast Guard Academy and I'm curious about the gender balance. Does anyone know the current ratio of men to women there? Is the environment supportive and inclusive for everyone?

As of fall 2024, the U.S.C.G.A enrollment was about 38% female and 62% male. However, these rates fluctuate year by year, so these might change slightly by the time you get there.

As for the environment being supportive and inclusive, the U.S.C.G.A frequently emphasizes the importance of a diverse and inclusive community. While as with any institution, there can always be individual experiences that vary, the Academy provides several resources to ensure all cadets feel welcomed, represented, and able to succeed. For example, the Coast Guard has its "Academy Women’s Leadership Initiative" which is focused on mentorship, empowerment, and cultivating female leaders.

Just as important, cadets at all service academies are held to a high standard of conduct, and there are strict policies against harassment and discrimination. In the end, the service academies are looking for individuals who meet their high standards of leadership and integrity, regardless of gender. But of course, visiting the campus, talking to students or alumni, or reaching out to admissions officers might give you the best insight into how the campus culture feels.
