While founded in 2140s to train United Earth Starfleet personnel, Starfleet Academy became the primary service academy of the Federation Starfleet as of 2161. The Academy's official motto is Ex Astris, Scientia which translates to from the stars, knowledge in Old Earth Latin. Noncommissioned officers do not attend Starfleet Academy, but rather study specialized fast track programs at the Starfleet Technical Services Academy on Mars.
Contents
Locations
The headquarters of the Starfleet Academy is located in the Presidio San Francisco adjacent to Starfleet Headquarters. The actual training facilities, its many annexes, satellite locations, associated schools and training ranges are scattered throughout the galaxy. Each location boasts similar features such as parade grounds, student housing, test facilities, admissions building, academics buildings, research laboratories, athletic center, recreational facilities, student services building, chapel, instructor housing, dining halls, wellness centers, student commons, sports complex, gallery, amphitheatre, lecture theatres, holodecks, athletic fields and dedicated shuttle pads. Most campuses require a pass for leave campus, as well as a curfew.
Starfleet Academy's main campus can be found on Earth, just south of the Academy's headquarters in Sausalito, California. Additional Annexes of note are the Beta Aquilae II Annex in the Beta Aquilae system, the Beta Ursae Minor II Annex in the Beta Ursae Minor system and the Psi Upsilon III Annex in the Psi Upsilon system. Additional training grounds for supplemental or post graduate education include the Sol system such as the Academy Flight Range on Mimas, the Relva VII Testing Center or one of the post-graduate campuses such as the Starfleet Medical Academy, Starfleet Command School, Starfleet Marine Corps Academy and the Advanced Tactical Training School.
Admission
Potential candidates are requires to apply to Starfleet Academy in order to be considered for admission. Non-Federation citizens require a command level officer to sponsor their application in order to be eligible for entry level testing. Once the application has been accepted, candidates undergo a battery of competitive exams, including a rigorous psychological review before a portion of the top applicants were moved on to the next stage of preparatory programs. Should an applicant fail to pass the required exams with sufficient scores, the candidate may reapply the following year and repeat the process a total of three times. If a cadet fails to pass the entry level exams after three attempts, they are barred from further attempts without the expressed permission of a board of education. The minimum age for enrollment for human candidates is 16.
A six week preparatory program follows in which the candidates are physically, emotionally and mentally prepared to face the rigors of being a Starfleet Officer. Often compared to basic training that old Earth military used to condition potential soldiers, the prep program includes orientation, individual and team exercises, frequent drills, medical and dental examinations, a physical fitness test and several personal courses on managing the aspects of civilian life that will be left behind should a candidate pass on to the third phase of admission: the entrance exam.
The entrance exam is a comprehensive computerized test that not only sets the basis of a candidate's placement scores, but limits the initial training that a student can apply for. In order to deviate from this course, a student must secure the written permission of a department head or retest in the specific area and rank an appropriate score for consideration. This test may be attempted twice, after which a board of education must grant the candidate permission to attempt the test one final time. Failure to pass with scores high enough to transfer into a desired field does not block a candidate from the Academy. It simply limits what classes may be chosen. The test can be retaken once per school semester for consideration into higher level classes or to branch off into different specializations.
Once the entrance exam has been taken, a student is then free to enroll in classes as approved by placement tests or as prescribed by an academic advisor. The very end of a student's fourth year is rounded out with their three month long cadet cruise, after which they are assigned to post or continue on with post graduate studies. For most candidates this is just the beginning of four, five, six or eight years spent at the Starfleet Academy or one of its post-graduate colleges.

Studying
Many students participate in multi-racial varsity team sports sponsored by the Academy including baseball, boxing, martial arts, pareses squares, track and field, swimming and wrestling. A number of sports clubs have become traditional standbys in and around the athletic fields, such as the Marathon Club and the European Swordsmanship Club.
