CULP 2018

I hope he has some opportunity to travel around Europe too. Did your daughter have time for weekend trips?

The cadets will not have free time to wander around on the weekends, their schedules are pretty controlled. That being said, depending on the area, the leadership, and other things, they may have some free time to some exploring but they won't be able to just take off for a weekend. Again depending on the mission, they do seem to get the opportunity to do some sightseeing while they are there.

Thanks for the information!
 
It also may have been because I'm an MS2 and MS3's get priority.

Very few MS3s are selected for a CULP mission for the summer after their MS3 year, all go to Advanced Camp and many go to CTLT.

My son did CULP after his MS3 year, though he didn't try to fit CTLT into his summer.

Things may have changed, but I recall there was a fellow at Vandy who did CULP three consecutive years.
 
My son got Poland, leaving May 15
Our daughter went to Poland last summer!! OMG she had the best time!! Epic!
He was very happy to get Europe. I hope he has some opportunity to travel around Europe too. Did your daughter have time for weekend trips?
The knowledge I have is solely based on the CULP trip our daughter took. Unfortunately there was no free time to travel independently. The cadets travel under the umbrella of the US Army so they have to stay together. I might add my brother is a GS15 stationed in Germany and travels to Poland a lot TDY. He sent an email to her CMDR and asked if he could see her while she was in Poland and his request was denied. Reason given was that other requests were made and denied, no special treatment. I was disappointed, of course, but I understand rules are rules. She still the best time!!
