Current plebe here, Out of the 3 boots, I highly recommend the Garmont T8. I am on my company's Sandhurst team, and those are one of the pairs I use (I like to rotate through). Right now, it is very snowy so I use something heavier. However, when yall go through beast it will be hot and...

I plan on trying out for baseball at West Point, and was wondering how tryouts worked. I know they are during mass athletics, but that's all the info I currently have. I'm mainly looking for what I should bring in terms of equipment, because I'm trying to keep my stuff on R Day small.

What exactly is that designation as scholar or leader you mentioned? And is there by way for us to find out what category we fall in?

Colinmcd That is the exact chart. It's 27199 plus the 2000 initial deposit

It was a total of all 4 years. Basically it took the base salary cadets receive and showed how much the cadet actually pockets, and the total amount that the cadet never sees is 29,000 over 4 years.

I have already accepted my appointment to USMA. Looking through some material online, I found a breakdown of what cadets get paid, and what they have to pay. In total, cadets have to "pay" (technically deducted form their pay) about $29,000. I know that scholarships that don't specifically...

Yesterday, my Portal was updated with other forms to fill out (I have received an appointment). Today, I checked my portal and some of the links are gone (uniform size form, contact info, things like that). Has this happened to anyone else?

dlee96. I have a principal nomination, 3Q and an LOE. I'm also a diversity candidate (American Indian, so super diverse haha), maybe that's why.

Received an email from admissions today requesting my 7 semester transcript (semester is not over yet so that's why it is missing), but the last part reads as follows, "Offers will begin going out at the end of the month. I hope to see one in each of your hands sometime soon. " This was official...

When I check the status of my AROTC application (the one where you enter your SS and DOB, and the list with received or not received appears) I see that my medical exam is not received. However, when I go to the actual application, nothing is said about medical. I have already done my DODMERB...

Congrats on your non as well. I didn't even know that there could be two principals. Do you know how many interviewed? Because I met someone at the Hagan interviews that said she didn't even apply for Watt's (bad call IMO). Also, not to get too personal, but what school do you go to? I go to...

Just looked on my USMA portal, it shows a nomination from Senator Hagan, with NC62 beside it. I haven't received anything in the mail yet, but it is dated Dec 21, and my other nomination showed up on the portal a week before the letter got here. Anyone else heard anything from Hagan?

Same here. Have had an interview with Hagan, no response yet though. And have not heard anything back from Burr. I have a principal from my representative though, so I'm not flipping out if Burr never calls.

No it does not. It just indicates NC12
