That's not true. She will never do the CFA again. She will be asked to do pull ups on R-Day--she should not worried that she will be sent home if she cannot do any, it is ok. She will be asked to complete the Army Combat Fitness Test during CBT--but she will be taught some of the specialty...

Are they paying for your travel expenses? Then plan to arrive so that you can meet the shuttle.

One of my kids switched from IA to DSS. He loved it. It is not about easy or hard...there are other easy majors...it is about what you want to learn. It is like getting a bachelors in ARMY. His final presentation was to a former SecDef. It does not get any better than that. He loved every class...

There will be a day of massive TWE's this week. So check your portal. It is not over....7 years ago today my youngest received his BFE and portal update. It was a complete surprise...he had heard nothing on a packet that was completed and all green check marks since in mid-January. He is a 1LT...

Yes, it won't be with your local Field Force Representative but rather it will be with the cadet who guides you through the week. You will get feedback on the entire week and be able to ask questions. So, don't be a slacker or a jerk (which of course, you are neither of those things)--be...

Hi, if you search this page, there are a lot of people with posts about SLE (look for SLE in the search box at the top right of the page). I think USMA has a late deadline for notifying everyone. Again, look for a thread.

COngratulations!!!

Old Grad Dad....did your DS get into USMAPS or USMA? I think you posted that he was appointed USMA on the USMA appointment thread. Did you know there is an USMAPS forum and thread?

You have to let this go. Do not dwell on other people getting appointments while you wait for yours. Only the admissions committee knows why they made whatever decision they made. Focus on what you can control.

You can...but you will know before 1 May...your Regional Admissions officer may have more time for you after 1 May. . .

also, when you commission, you will have to go in and reset the amount to the full amount--take the SLGI at its full rate. It matters.

Take the full amount and leave it to one of your parents or split it among your siblings. People do die at USMA and during military training--and it devastates families. So, do not cut your family short because you do not understand.

Yes but people do not come back here to update their status...there is requirement--so all along assume that people have been accepting or declining and USMA is making the back fills. The reality is that you will know by 1 May...it might change after that but you won't know and it is highly...

No they do not. Sometimes they will make an offer to someone who received a TWE or an AOG scholarship. But there is no ‘regular’ waiting list.

The late June people either had a rejection or AOG. It is not that they heard nothing until June. Your kid will receive some notification by 1 May.

You can apply to medical school right out of ROTC--like graduate from college and commission (but not onto active duty) and then go to a medical school either USUHS (which is active duty) or use an HPSP for a civilian medical school. It is worth noting that the Army sends more ROTC students to...

Please spend time reviewing the previous posts on this topic available through the Service Academy Forum. Please also review the USMA webpages. Plan to attend an USMA Admissions brief, they are virtual and offered frequently--you can find the next availability on Instagram or Facebook. Best wishes.
