    Your CBT Cadre -- AMA*

    Regarding the STAP periods over the summer how many classes can you take at a time? And what are the type of courses that are available to voluntary take over the summer? Do you have less opportunities to do MIADS/AIADS after your plebe - yuk summer? I heard that the length of mandatory...

    USMA: Soldier Admission Program

    This ^. I always make sure there is a paper trail and cc my leadership when sending emails; especially pertaining to USMA. When my NCO channel tried to put me under investigation with Military Intelligence for "forging" my conditional release memo FROM admissions the confusion was diffused...

    Scholarship Program

    I have some questions for those that participated in USMA's scholarship program and were able to move on to grad school immediately upon graduation: Is there a limit on how many years you could be in school? Did TIG or TIS accumulated while you were in school? If you were to spend 2 years in...

    USMA: Soldier Admission Program

    I'm not sure if OP is already enlisted, but just incase I want to let him and any lurkers know that the Guard has more hurdles in place to get into a service academy compared to active duty and the reserves; you belong to your state just as much as you do to the federal government. You have to...

    Marriage after West Point

    I know a friend who's a sergeant in the Army and just got married to an Airforce officer with no pushback or consequences. As you already know you can't get married to enlisted as an officer in the same service; especially if you're both in the same CoC. But no one will honestly care/know if the...

    Yuk at USMA

    Can you volunteer to forgo summer leave and take extra classes in the summer (STAP)? Would you have to sacrifice a MIAD/AIAD to do so? Or can these classes run concurrent to mandatory cadet summer training?

    NASA and Space and Missile Defense Command AIADs

    For those that attended these AIADS I was curious whether there are prerequisites for cadets to be selected? Or if there is a priority for those in the Space Science Major/Minor? And how was it like

    Space Science Major

    Any space science grads here? I would actually like to know whether accepting the Assured Functional Area Transfer (AFAT) would immediately transfer you at 1lt(p)/4 years in, or is there a generous deadline to accept the transfer? And if there's opportunities to jump into a space billet from a...

    GIS Major

    Thanks! I was under the assumption that GIS with a space concentration also comes with the automatic space badge, but I'm also looking at the space sciences major as a possibility; no reason to be tunnel-visioned into a major just yet. Would you happen to know if we would be given just the...

    GIS Major

    Just curious about whether the Geospatial Science major has helped anyone while they were in the service? For context I'm currently appointed to the class of 2026 and would most likely shoot for infantry. For example: does all that emphasis on cartography and geography helped at all with...

    Firstie at West Point branched cyber. Ask me anything.

    Cyber is my first choice, but I'm also looking into EOD as an alternate. Would you happen to know how many EOD slots were available for your class?

    CFA Retake

    I was told 35, but that's even better for OP then; he just needs 30 out of his 36 pushups to be perfect.

    CFA Retake

    The minimum amount of pushups you need to pass is 35. I was in similar situation when I injured myself at the gym and only did 41, as oppose to my initial 74. As long as they consider 35 out of your 36 push-ups perfect, you passed.
