Led by current cadets, Summer Leaders Experience (SLE) is a week-long immersion into the academic, military, and social life of a West Point cadet. At SLE, you will explore West Point from all angles, including our high-tech educational facilities, team-building athletic activities, and realistic military training.
SLE gives you a taste of the character, determination, commitment to excellence, and leadership required to be a cadet at the U.S. Military Academy (USMA).
SLE Application opens February 1st, 2024 for high school juniors.
An SLE application doubles as the first step of a West Point application (Candidate Questionnaire); however, please keep in mind that completing an SLE application is not an obligation to complete a West Point application or attend West Point, but it will keep the option open during your college search.
