What is a cadet’s day like?
During the academic year, from early August through May, you’ll have a busy schedule of classes, study periods, military training and athletic participation. Breakfast formation is at 7:00. You’ll rise in time to put your room in order, dress in the cadet uniform of the day and meet the formation. After breakfast you’ll attend morning classes, which begin at 7:30 a.m. You’ll attend classes or study until 11:20 a.m., when you’ll go to your squadron area for the noon meal formation. You’ll march to lunch with the cadet wing and have 25 minutes to eat. After lunch there are three classes or study periods in the afternoon, one which includes military training (M-5), followed by athletics, squadron training or extra academic instruction. Evening mealtime is from 5:00 to 6:50 p.m. and academic call to quarters is 7:00 p.m. Some military activities will be required in the evening, but most of the time will be devoted to studying in your room or in the library. Your day ends with taps at 10:30
