Do girls have to where skirts all the time? Can we wear pants at all? I guess, what is professional attire and how often are we in it?

I recall somewhere it saying women must where skirts but are pant suits okay?

Pant suits are perfectly acceptable, as are skirts. Professional attire is expected nearly everyday, so you'll want to mix and match outfits for the greatest efficiency. Log-in the the participants section of the NYLF-DID webpage for more information. You'll need the password to access these pages, I believe.

I figure might as well use this thread instead of starting a new one.

When they say you can wear a military uniform, as long as it's not casual dress. Does that mean it has to have a tie? Because with the Navy JROTC's summer blue uniform, there isn't a tie, or even a collar button, but it is considered a dress uniform. Would it be acceptable?

If you do indeed decide to wear your JROTC uniform, the model chosen should reflect the professional civilian attire standards established on the previously noted website. Obviously, I'm not saying this to be mean, but I just want you to be able to fit in.

Maybe if you have a picture of the uniform in question, Epeyon, I can tell you specifically if it would agree with the NYLF standards.

Here's a picture I found on google.

I suggest you wear professional civilian attire or the JROTC uniform most similar to that (coat, tie, white button up shirt). Keep on with the questions!

The female AFJROTC uniform looks like a ladies business suit. The skirt reaches the knees. Is that long enough? Also, are there a lot of people wearing JROTC uniforms?

The skirt is part of the dress uniform. And I believe at reg size, it should be at the knees. So I don't see why it would be unexceptable.

Anyways, I'm wearing my AFJROTC uniform too, but I'm a guy, so no skirt for me.

JROTC skirts are perfectly within standard. Maybe 5 in people from your group of 25 with wear their JROTC uniform one or more days of the Forum.

you said 25 in a group, how are the groups defined? is your group chosen because of the sites that you will be visiting, or is it random? same question concerning roommates

In 2004, the groups and roommates were determined by last names, so I assume it will be the same this year. 25 is a rough estimate, by the way, so don't hold me to that.

In 2005, it was done by birthday.

When I went earlier this year, the roommates were placed by time of arrival. First come first serve really. I just lucked out and got in late so I was placed in a room with only one other person. ^_^

WOW lots of options -- last name, birth date, and time of arrival. Who knows...

I just got back from a forum and room assignments were based on your time of arrival just like "freeway" said. i got there first along with my two other roommates and we got the suite

If we wear our JROTC uniform does it have to be service dress or just regular? Who all is wearing thiers?

The JROTC uniform is going to be full service dress. This means tie/tab, hat, service coat, and coards if your unit uses them. I did not end up wearing mine because i had alread bought professional attire but wished i had once i was there.

Ok so i read all the messages and i just wanted to say that the high school I go to wears the air force uniform everyday, except for on thursday we wear bdus, or fatigues as they are called sometimes. I will be wearing my blues almost everyday because i will eb showing pride in my family and i will be including the skirt with that. Is anybody else going to be wearing BDU's??? By the way im going to the October 2 - october 7 forum.

i will also be wearing my JROTC uniform but in my school we only wear it once a week and no BDU's so of course i won't
