I recently received a nomination to West Point from my representative, so is it likely that I will get an appointment as well? Thanks!

I am also waitng for the boot letter so that I can drive up to West Point and buy my boots and break them in ASAP
I dont think West Point knows exactly what they want to do with boots for the class of 2015. The tactical officers are debating wether or not to switch over to a tennis-shoe style boot that wouldn't need to be broken in as much, and therefore could just be issued on R-Day.
Does anyone know when the last date you can update a candidate files is? My DS re-took the SAT test yesterday to boost his scores to make him more competitive. The results will be in December 21st and he will forward them the same day. Any information would be greatly appreciated.
What are the nuances between the different boots and low quarters?
For low quarters, you get the non-shiny ones, not the chlorafram (sp?) ones that look like they have plastic on the outside of them.
For boots, the Belleville 390 DES was said to be an authorized boot by the plebe touring me and the folks at the PX. It was also the boot a lot of people got when the boot letter for Class of 2014 came out. So i stuck with the 390 DES.
Wait, wait. I asked Ms. Rush if I can come to West Point to buy my footwear, and she said no. I don't understand.
My second question is would we be able to wear it during Beast or is it taken away for the summer?
