Net pay is made by direct deposit to the cadet's personal checking account.
There are many expenses incurred upon entrance to the Academy. An account is established and is referred to as the cadet's held pay account. The held pay account is necessary to ensure funds are always available to cover charges. Charges for uniforms, textbooks, computer, personal service, i.e. barber, linen, etc., and membership fees are deducted from this account. When this loan is advanced, a debt is incurred and a repayment plan is established.
