I am looking at the Cadet Budget Pay for 2021-2022 & it appears the deposit was still in there. Now whether they asked the cadets to pay for it ahead of time like previous years or not that may have been handled very differently. Who knows. I don’t see how the Class of 2025 would not have been...

For those that have already received their BFE and started receiving information in their portal. Have you received a date(s) for when you will report for R-Day this Summer? If you don’t know what R-Day means the R stands for Reception Day. Thank you for the information I will be a Firstie...

YIKES … If you got an LOA to WP and an LOE to USAF that is correct those are 2 very different letters. The LOA is pretty much a guaranteed letter to WP as long as you get the NOMINATION from your Congressman & maintain all your grades & so forth. I would suggest that you find an Old Grad in your...

Some states are not super competitive or may have more openings available than other ones. Which is why some students have more than one Nom.

Not that I’m trying to help support this theory but anyone who follows the ARMY FB Recruiting / Army Football / Nick Determan / or heck any of the Army Football on Twitter you will see how bad the recruits SAT scores are on there. Kids nowadays POST all their info, and I MEAN all their stats...

Please re-clarify your statement here: the letter that was sent out was not sent to all “Cadets”. It was sent to certain “Cadets”, and then obviously that letter made its way around.

They knew what they were doing before they made that mistake. That’s why they are taught in their Cadet Prayer “THE HARDER RIGHT OVER THE EASIER WRONG!”. it’s not easy being a leader & trying to make the right decisions but not lying & cheating well 😳🤷‍♀️.

Congratulations on your PN. Where in TX do you currently reside? We have some great West Point Parent Clubs in the North & The Greater Houston area if you decide to join WP!

I apologize for not responding sooner. It could have been a variety of different things: such as girls tested positive for being pregnant & maybe didn’t know; a male could have failed a possible drug test; there are some that actually get there and right before the swear-in decide that West...

The buff card explains the academic calendar. It’s for the students not the parents & yes R-Day is listed for 6/29

some changed their minds & felt It wasn’t for them, a few were girls who failed the medical test (you can guess), and the rest are reasons of all kinds

No if you are able to get in either the first week of beast or sometime during they will all have you do tests & those are your placement tests.

Your ACT score is actually pretty good Comparatively. Our DS took it 4xs started w/a 28 didn’t get in his 1st time. Went to a reg University after HS and in the fall semester of his 1st year at university he got an LOA because he increased his scores. Your math is not too bad at all if you do...

Just a bit of advice from a Plebe parent here who just went thru Rday ... if they told you you are to report on 6/29 & the time..it’s a stressful 2day event till then. Don’t leave and go home that day. Our class had 17 cadets dismissed before they even got to the plain & swore in. (For various...

not true USMA’s math Dept does use it. I have a current plebe and his current Prof uses the method. the class he was in last semester is only taught in 2 Universities in the entire US (West Point & MIT). So it was a struggle for him to find help or information to help with that class.

They are barracks, it's the military! If your DS/DD was in the ME they would have been in a tent with the bare minimum if we were at war. Granted some locations in the ME or Europe have much better luxuries but not all of men get so lucky. I've been on mission trips down in South America where...

R-Day is July 1 March Back for A-Day will be 8/12 Family day for A-Day weekend is 8/16 the time hasn’t been released yet A-Day graduation has been released it’s 8/17 ... time has not yet. DD/DS will be released to us once they graduate till a certain time then they report back. And then we can...

My DS received a call from his MOC then the next day his portal (or maybe even that night) his portal updated. And then like a week later he received his BFE.

There is a great West Point Moms site with some very helpful & useful information. MOre often than not it doesn’t pertain to to you. But my son is class of 2023 & I have found some useful information so far. Don’t listen so Ranger up there. I have a son at Fort Bragg & now one at WP. I don’t...
