    Tour + rehearsal

    I am a 2015 appointee. My dad has already planned for us to arrive a few days earlier than R-Day and for both of us to go on a tour of west point on 06/24. But just now I saw a thread below saying that the RDay rehearsal is on the same day. I also remember reading that 2015 candidates are not...

    ACU Army Nametape

    These are for you to have your last name velcroed to your uniform. In addition, you would need a "US Army" tape velcroed to your uniform, as well as other things (like the American flag)

    Bringing boots, low quarters to west point

    boots!?!?

    I went last week to Fort Sam to see if they had all 3 kinds in the boot letter. They said they didn't have any Khybers (you must have gotten some of the last ones! :) ), and they only had Belleville 390s, not 310s. Fort Sam did not have the correct low quarters, because they weren't made of...

    Should Appointees Update File?

    I received an appointment to USMA in November, and now have filled out most of the paperwork, but I have a question about updating my file. My dad thinks that West Point probably wants me to send updates about the ECs I have done during my senior year, even though I'm already appointed. Is...

    Vision Survey

    Yes, I didn't have to schedule an appointment. If I did anything wrong, Admissions hasn't contacted me about it yet, and I sent it in a while ago.
