<p>I applied to SLS the first day they started taking applications. And just a few days ago, I got a packet saying I was invited to attend! The first paragraph of the letter reads...</p>
<p>Dear Will, </p>
<pre><code> Congratulations! You are one of the 800 young Americans invited to attend the 32nd Annual United States Military Academy Summer Leaders Seminar (SLS) at West Point, New York, June 2-15, 2007. You should be very proud of this accomplishment, as you were chosen from amongst thousands of your peers throughout the Nation to participate in a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Enclosed in this packet are your registration forms and a checklist.
</code></pre>
<p>The early bird often gets the worm! Congrats, and yes applicants have reported getting an invite to SLS within a week of applying in the past. Good Luck!!</p>
<p>My stats weren't the most impressive, but here goes...</p>
<p>PSAT: Don't know the individual scores off the top of my head, but I know my total was 198, with math being my highest.
Rank: 5 out of 85 (small school)
EC's: Football, Track and Field, FBLA</p>
<p>In my opinion, applying early is definitely what put me over the edge ( I applied the 18th, and the letter is dated the 19th)
TAKE MY ADVICE, APPLY EARLY!!!</p>
<p>Hey Will, I was accepted too. What is your screen name. Mine is "II Turbotw II" . I checked the box for the first week, so maybe I'll get to meet you if we both get that week (assuming you checked that box). Which week did you check? Keep in contact bro.</p>
<p>how long does it take on average to find out if you got accepted. lol. obviously the guy that got accepted within a few days is pretty good but what is the average time frame?</p>
<p>I recieved my acceptance a week after I applied and that was the last week of february. I'm not sure which week I'm going to though because I'm in school for both:) Hope to see you guys there!</p>
<p>My little sister just got invited to SLS... ex varsity wrestling...I don't think they have that for girls hahaha. Too funny. We would never be allowed go...stupid NY state testing and school attendance policy!</p>
<p>Hey, I have a friend who got accepted for SLS and she was wondering if any of you guys would be willing to talk to her...I just thought I would throw it out there and if anyone is wants just let me know and I will give you her info. i know she has facebook and her name is Emylee Darnielle. Thanks!</p>
