Information for Current SoldiersWhether you're a soldier currently serving on Active Duty, in the Reserves or National Guard, we encourage you to apply to West Point. You already know what it takes to be a soldier and you’ve seen your leaders in action. Now it’s time for you to answer your Nation's call and become the leader you’ve always aspired to be. At West Point, you'll be pushed academically, physically, and mentally, giving you the confidence and self-assurance that come with succeeding through hard work and determination. As a cadet, you'll develop into a leader of character with a strong moral and ethical foundation, an appreciation for discipline, a sensitivity to the needs of others, and a commitment to a demanding code of ethics as an officer. First Steps Consider whether you meet the basic eligibility requirements and complete the first part of the application known as the Candidate Questionnaire. Classes start each July, so it’s best to apply the preceding summer or earlier to allow enough time to complete the entire admissions process. Next Steps As a soldier, you must be assessed by your company or lowest-level unit commander. Commanders are highly encouraged to view the Information for Units and Commanders document. While this assessment constitutes a nomination, Soldiers are also strongly encouraged to obtain additional nominations from your congressional nomination sources. Never Say Never Follow all of the steps to admission. If you are academically disqualified, you will be automatically considered for admission to the United States Military Academy Preparatory School (USMAPS), where you may later be considered for admission to West Point.
