Hello everyone. I’ve finally registered so I can post on this thread. I’ve been hawking this thread since I started my process and was really hoping for the November class. That didn’t happen, so I’m shooting for the Jan class now. I’m currently in background but I haven’t heard anything yet. I passed my polygraph Oct 4th or around there.
Regarding pay, according to the website cadet pay is 42000, as well as probationary officer, correct? Someone that’s in the academy now, how much are your checks each pay period?
I’m just as excited as before to get in, and I hope to hear back soon!!!
Edit: Concerning push ups, proper form goes a long way. Make sure you’re not shooting your elbows out at a 90 degree angle when you’re going down or pressing up. Look up some videos of form and practice it. If you have asthma, make sure to puff up before running! And don’t be like me and be one of the last ones to run the 200m.... I didn’t get a lot of rest before the 1.5mile.Last edited by MrW4ffles7; 11-26-2018, 07:19 PM.Comment

The pay is approximately $1600-$1700 before taxes, insurance, ect... after taxes should be somewhere around $1300 depends on how you fill out your tax forms.
P/S: For the push-ups. Make sure you do more than the minimum because DT instructors would give "love" when you get into the academy on your first day. So don't try to aim for the minimum.Last edited by HPDLa935; 11-26-2018, 07:51 PM.👍 1Comment

Good luck to you. I missed out on the last 2 classes due to not being done with the process .Im finally finished everything. I'm been in the process since April. It seems like they are moving much faster than before. So anything is possible. -
Thank you kindly. I’m hoping for the best. It would be a great start to the new year. Hopefully you get in too! -

MrW4ffles7 Good luck! Just make sure you stay on top of it and you’ll be done in no time.
