    No word on Study Abroad Decision, semester starts in 10 days?

    Thank you for your reply, however I do believe CC has final say over the matter. From their website, under Study ABroad: "These programs are administered by USACC DCS G-2." When I first gave in the SA application, the PMS's approval was only the first step. The last time I was given an update...

    No word on Study Abroad Decision, semester starts in 10 days?

    I applied for Study Abroad much earlier on in the semester, but have yet to receive a final decision from Cadet Command (Army ROTC). My studies abroad are completely in line with my major, and was told that my application should be approved. However, the new semester at university starts in 10...

    Some schools are more challenging

    Coming from one of the most competitive high schools in the NE/US. I had a 3.8/4 gpa, and a 2210 SAT. AP's + IBS's. 4 Year Varsity, SLS, Boys State. Got my TWE (rejection) letter last week. Anything can happen, it all depends on your district bro.

    I got a rejection letter today. Hopes, dreams, and expectations blown away. I don't really know what else to say. Welcome to reality. ^^ I did not intend for that to rhyme.

    CFA Basketball Throw Event -- tips for improving your distance

    Sorry, I didn't read the whole OP, but I do have a few tips to add. My first throw at the sls last summer was (I think) one of the highest there, and I only practiced it a few times. I see too many people worrying about this event far too much. Things to keep in check: -Throw the ball STRAIGHT...

    Given 15 Days..

    Would they be able to use my CFA scores from when I took it at WP's SLS? Will I really be DQ'd if I do not submit everything within 15 days?

    Language Offerings

    West Point and the Army has been my dream for a while now. Although I actively pursue admission, the only factor that is strong enough to keep me from attending is their language offerings. I want to learn Korean, Japanese, and others (including Chinese, which they have, but no where near as...

    Given 15 Days..

    I received a letter saying I had 15 days to turn in my transcript, Presidential Fitness test score, SAT score (which I believed I had sent to them a while ago) and interview results. How am I supposed to do this. I don't even start school until the 15th day after getting this notification.

    Foreign Area Studies

    It's really hard to find information on this major at West Point. Does anyone have any experience with this? Specifically, East Asian studies. If one follows this path, is he/she required to take a language? If so, i'm guessing chinese, as WP doesn't have any others. :frown: (Always wanted...

    Army Scholarship awarded to multiple schools?

    Thank you. Unrelated question: Say you are awarded a 4 year ROTC scholarship, and attend a college for a year in the ROTC program under the scholarship. After this one year, can you apply to a SA and not incur any debt? (Backup plan if not accepted to USMA this year). Can you essentially...

    Army Scholarship awarded to multiple schools?

    When applying for the Army ROTC scholarship, it asks for 7 colleges you would like to attend, in order of preference. If you are qualified, would the Army be able to provide a scholarship to whichever school you later pick, or will they only provide it for one (ie. first/second choice). I am...
