West Point/USMA SLE 2016

So I recently just got accepted to West Point’s SLE, and made this thread because I want to get to know some people who got accepted as well so I can meet them when I get there. Also for anyone who’s gone before, any tips/things to watch out for? I’ve done a lot of research, but if there’s anything else I should know, please tell me. Thanks in advance, and hopefully I’ll see you there!

Hey! I just got accepted as well. What session are you attending?

@tq2110 session 1 but I haven’t submitted my official paperwork yet. What about you?

Be prepared to take the CFA and bring a fan.

Hey! I got accepted to session 1 but I also haven’t turned in my papers yet.

@kokorolle same! What state are you from?

@tq2110 @kokorolle I’m having trouble submitting my travel and t-shirt info. After I clicked everything it said on t he bottom in green that my info. was submitted but when I go back to the overview page it has a red x saying it hasn’t been submitted yet. Have you guys also had trouble submitting it?

I’m from Alabama. Mine went through fine, and I just mailed my stuff. Try a different browser or computer?

@kokorolle All my mailed papers have been received. The only problem I’m having is with the travel and t shirt info. part. It says on the bottom “Your information has been submitted!” in green but when I go back to the page there’s still the red x beside it. I emailed the rep there and she said they’re working on my “travel issue and shirt size is okay” so I don’t really know what to do and I’ve already emailed them a bunch of times

@purpledog354 I wouldn’t stress it too much if you have already emailed them. You could ask them to fill it out for you (of course send the information) and update the status. Otherwise, I don’t think there is anything else you can do but rely on them for this. Oh, but what state are you from? XD

@kokorolle that’s exactly what I did, I sent them my info. but they haven’t emailed back yet so I guess I’ll just have to wait haha. And I’m from Maryland! Do you have any social networks?

@purpledog354 yeah I have like every one, but I’m not really active on any particular one. What would be the easiest for you? And lucky you’re pretty close

well I use instagram and snapchat the most so whichever one is fine haha

@purpledog354 my ig is @mannidoan just tell me when you follow so I can follow back

@kokorolle just followed! I’m jungmoney99 haha

anyone here attending from June 4 - June 10?

@americanlife I was just about to ask the exact same thing haha. I am!

According to those who’ve gone previously, preeeepppaarree for CFA. I cannot stress that enough. Also, there might or might not be a change that you’ll have to use communal showers. Bring and fan, but not too many clothes. I heard that they provide so many clothes that I may become a problem returning back home haha. You won’t use any of the clothes they tell you to bring besides the khaki shorts. I’m so excited, ya’ll!

For those attending session 1, I will be easy to find. I tore my ACL so I’ll be the one with a black sleeve on my left leg haha.
