Hello! After looking through West Point's full list of clubs and sports available (http://www.usma.edu/dca/SitePages/Clubs.aspx) I found a lot that I'm interested in. I'm sure I won't have enough time to do all of these at once, but I'd like to do all of them at some point during my stay at West...

Hello everyone, I just received all my information on the portal about everything I have to do before R-day. I was wondering if you're allowed to pay the full $11,800 up front so it's not taken out of your pay over the years, instead of just the $2,000 that's required. Thanks!

It seems to be common knowledge that your file is 60% academics, 30% leadership, and 10% athletics, but beyond that I've heard different things. Does the academics category just include your SAT/ACT scores and your class rank? Does it include any academic honors you've won (National Honors...

I received an email this morning that opened by saying, "I am happy to inform you that your full application to the West Point Class of 2017 is open and your candidate portal now shows all the pieces of our full application." As my portal has been open for a few weeks now, I take this to mean...

The form says grades 9-12, but since I'm just entering my senior year now, should I include this year's athletics? Specifically, I was on the Varsity Cross Country team last year, and technically the season hasn't started yet, but I know I'll be on it again this year. Thank you!

Is the CFA test you take at the beginning of the SLS week the 'official' one which is put on your application, or is it just a practice?

Hi everyone, I just wanted to know if anyone had confirmation that West Point received their paperwork yet. I enabled tracking on mine, and it reached them (and someone signed for it) on the 20th. But my portal still doesn't show any activity and I haven't heard anything. I'm starting to...

I actually have two questions. 1) Does anyone know how much SLS attendance helps your chances of acceptance? Are there statistics on how many who were accepted into SLS went on to be accepted into West Point? 2) If you're not accepted to West Point, I know you can attend another college...

Hello all, Now that the adrenaline rush of finally being able to open a file and apply for SLS has passed, I'm wondering if anyone knows when acceptance letters will be sent. Also, do they send rejection letters, or do you just keep waiting... and waiting... and waiting... with your hope slowly...

Hello, all! I'm currently a Junior, and it's driving me crazy not being able to open a file yet! I'd like to start putting my resume together, especially for SLS, so I can get everything in as early as possible, but I'm not sure what you need for the SLS portion. SAT/ACT scores...
