Prior Enlisted LEAD C/O 2025

Hey folks,

I just was notified on the 13th of March I was accepted for Direct Entry. For I-Day, I'll be flying in on June 23rd and reporting on June 24th. Since I'll be reporting alone, I'm planning on staying at one of the local hotels (Hyatt House on I-25 or Holiday Inn on Federal Drive) around the Academy area and will be needing a ride to the field house for in-processing. Is anybody taking a similar approach?

I might do something similar if my parents don't go. Is there something you're worried about?
 
There will be plenty of cadets there by themselves and more will be with some sort of family to drop them. Most any parent will be willing to take you with them if you have around the same appointment time. I guarantee you it won’t be a problem. Best of luck

Not worried, just looking for the best option to get to the field house. I know Uber does is not the best option. The Appointee Instruction Book lists a taxi service (probably the best bet).
 
Has anyone else gotten any updates on acceptance or rejection? I still have yet to get any correspondence at all.
 
Has anybody heard anything yet ? Updated for the this week
Right now on the main thread there are only 3 service connected people on the list. Hopefully there is a LEAD wave of some sort soon if that is a thing.
 
Just got a call this afternoon from my commander saying I was accepted for direct entry!!! So glad the wait is over, now just a day or two and it will show up in my portal.

Congratulations!! We're you too old for prep school?
 
Well turns out my commander told me wrong and I got a prep slot. Still excited, just wish I had known off the bat

I'm sorry for the miscommunication. I was a prior-E preppie. The Prep School is still an awesome opportunity and will truly set you up for success at the Academy. Not just academically but also with a close-knit support network of other preppies. It has been a few years since I went through, but feel free to shoot me a PM if you'd like to talk about the experience.
