    SLE Clothing

    You will be required to wear the shirts and polos provided. So there would be no benefit to extra shirts. The only time you are not required to wear the required shirts/polos is on military day where you wear your own long sleeve.

    Portal vs BFE

    However, the portal had been down a day or two before the BFE. That could explain why I got the BFE before portal.

    Do Midshipmen ever pretend to be Seminar Students?

    It definitely was out of the norm, from what I heard was that there was an extra set of gear so the mid had some fun. The NASS detailers sure got some laughs out of it.

    Do Midshipmen ever pretend to be Seminar Students?

    When I went to summer seminar last year, one midshipman did pretend to be one of the kids. Some people suspected it and then my squad leader told us later in the week that he was a midshipman.

    SLE 2018 (Session 2) Travel Advice

    They should release travel info soon with time frames to arrive and depart. When I went to SLE last year, I believe they recommended arrivals before 2 pm the day of. And departures they preferred to have them no earlier than about 2 or 3 pm the last day. Personally, I took a red eye flight from...

    Odd portal request for additional information-thoughts please

    I would assume the letter does not mean much. I received the letter around the same time and there was a check next to the CFA (which I had not submitted at that time). My guess would be that they used an automated system that sent out the letter and may have accidentally sent some to those...

    Timeline from LOA to appointment

    I received an LOA a few weeks back and only had to finish up my DoDMERB process. Today, my status changed to qualified and now on the USNA portal it shows that there are no required actions anymore. I was wondering the typical time a candidate will receive notification of an appointment after...

    SLE Question

    I can confirm that during SLE this past year it was the traditional open setup for the guys. However, that was in Sherman barracks so that may not be the case for the other barracks.

    In complete disbelief...

    I'm sorry to hear what happened. The situations you proposed are all what if's and even if possible, are all out of your control. If West Point is really what you want to do, focus on everything that IS under your control. Consider reapplying and create a plan as to what to do to put together a...

    Candidate Questionnaire ..?

    The candidate questionnaire is just the preliminary step to the application. I believe they ask about test scores, school activities, etc. If you are applying to SLE, that is the first part of the application so you'll have it done already and won't have to do it later. And no, you do not need a...

    Principal Nomination

    If you took the CFA at SLE and passed, even a low pass, you should not need to take it again. If you're not sure if you passed, ask your RC. Were you asked to submit videos of you doing any of the events? Having a Principal NOM is essentially a guarantee of admission as long as you meet the...

    Principal Nomination

    I did not mean to make it seem that I was simply aiming for the minimum or that I was struggling with passing at the moment. I was training up to get my best possible scores on the cfa and once I got the principal nomination I decided to stick to the training and turn in my best cfa I can. I...

    Principal Nomination

    Hello all, I am an applicant for the class of 2022. I was told by my congresswoman about a month back that I secured the principal nomination from her. I am waiting for my dodmerb status and I am planning on taking my CFA in a week or two. With appointments starting to go out, does that affect...
