How are your classes determined. Do you test before or after r-day? Should I study for these tests or go in blind? Do you have any recommended classes or order of classes? Also, thank you for taking time to help new cadets out

Any recommendations for boots for someone with wide feet?

Good Morning! I received an appointment offer(and accepted) from West Point roughly a month and a half ago. Applying for West Point was time consuming, confusing, and intimidating. I relied on the assistance of my Field Force Representative, Mr.Mullen, and the people from this forum to go...

There are too many factors to account for in the application process for SLE and West Point that no one knows what your chances are. Keep doing good in school, keep doing good in your extra curriculars, and don't give up. Its only over when you see the Official Correspondence letter telling you...

I recently received and accepted my appointment into West Point(March 25th). Keep in mind I did not apply for any other service academies other than West Point so my advice might be specific to that service academy. I highly recommend you start and finish your application as early as possible...

My Field Force Representative has just confirmed I have indeed received an appointment. I am super excited and cant wait to go back home from school to tell my parents.

Good morning! During todays schoolday, I checked my West Point portal to see a new Admit kit form and instructions for appointments. The congressman hasnt called me because I did not own a phone while I was applying for the nomination(so he doesn't have my phone number). Does this mean I have...
