How exactly do I join the Corps of Cadets?

<p>I recently found out I got into the school!</p>

<p>Unfortunately, I think I said "no" to the question where they ask if you want to join the corps....but I really want to do it now. Can somebody explain how I can join?</p>

<p>You officially join at your New Student Conference. They have an information lunch and ice cream social on Day 1. On Day 2, you go through the sign-up process. If you want to start the paperwork going, just call Corps recruiting and let them know you’ve been accepted and want to join the Corps. But you can also just show up at the NSC and complete the process there.</p>

<p>Okay thanks.</p>

<p>What should I do about housing? Should I just sign up for Corps Housing right now?</p>

<p>Housing on the Quad is guaranteed for Corps of Cadet members. If you are absolutely sure you will be joining the Corps, then go ahead and sign-up. However, if there is any chance you’ll change your mind, non-Corps housing will fill up before your NSC. I believe you can easily switch from regular on-campus housing to Corps housing, but not the other way around. If you start out in the Corps and decide it is not for you, they will do their best to find you other on-campus housing, but that is not guaranteed. Contact Corps housing at (979)845-3443 to get more information. They have a separate office from the rest of Residence Life.</p>
