<p>how long is winter break at the Academy?</p>
<p>KP is apparently having web site issues which include not being able to access the regimental calendar at the moment. It should be back up soon. Until you can open it & see it written in black & white for yourself, I can give you what I have written down on my personal calendar that I'd copied off from the original reg. calendar a few weeks ago just to give you an idea of time:</p>
<p>You'll get about 5 days at Thanksgiving then the Winter break you'd ask about begins Friday December 19, 2008 and ends on Sunday January 4, 2009. This should be accurate but please check the calendar when it becomes available again.</p>
<p>speaking of breaks I no that your first year at KP you report in late june and go through indoc. But after that first year do you sill only have one month off or do you get two or whats up lol?</p>
<p>It depends on which "split " you are assigned to. "B" splitters will be out at sea during the summers after their 4th class and 3rd class years. In theory there is about a 4 week break scheduled in the summer from the end of June until the end of July but, often times there are activities that use this time up. (summer school, Marine Corps PLC, etc.) The regimental calendar can give you some exact dates to go by.</p>
<p>unfortunately none of the breaks from KP are ever "long enough". The only real break you get is after you graduate :)</p>
<p>In 2007 the academic year ended on June 19 and the next one started on July 22nd.</p>
<p>They are back up. Here is the .pdf to the new one.
