R Day for Class of 2024

So have people just gone ahead and booked a room, hoping that their DS or DD actually gets an appointment? Yet another reason that waiting for the bus stinks!

There should be rooms available, you may just have to drive 30 minutes. Your DS/DD probably won't sleep much the night prior anyway.

From what I've read on here, families arrive on Sunday evening and then R-day starts very early on Monday for the quick good-bye. The rest of the family then attends various activities during the day until the parade on Monday evening. Families would depart on Tuesday morning if they overnighted again. Is this correct?

I'm leaning a bit far forward here, but with a new year comes a new calendar, and my other kids' activities are starting to fill it for the summer. Trying to figure out who should be available to attend what "should" an appointment be offered. Would siblings enjoy R-day or is this primarily geared toward parents?

Also, is it published anywhere that R-day is indeed June 29th?

It was in our appointment letter.

I did....made sure I could cancel if need be. Some ABNBs won’t let you without a small fee.

17 people got dismissed that day? Curious to hear the types of things that cause that!

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 Point is not for them.
