About the Texas Brigades Cadet Selection Process
Admission is COMPETITIVE. All applications submitted before the March 15th deadline are pooled by camp preferences and graded by each camp's committee. Applications are "blind", meaning no identifying information is provided to the committees prior to selection. The quality of an applicant's essay questions is important!
