Best Answer

The Naval Academy was organized in 1845 by Secretary of the Navy George Bancroft. It was first known as the Naval School but that was changed to the current Naval Academy. In 1930 the curriculum was accredited by The Association of American Universities. In 1933, an act of Congress enabled the graduates to receive a Bachelor of Science degree. In 1937 Congress enacted legislation to award The Bachelor of Science degree to all living graduates.
