Admissionto SAW is based on allocations granted by the Commandant of the Marine Corps. Student applications to SAW are processed annually in the following manner: the SAW selection process begins in the summer with the release of a MARADMIN (Marine Corps-wide administrative correspondence) to inform potential applicants about the course, application requirements, and deadlines.

In August and September, the Director of SAW briefs all students attending Marine Corps Command and Staff College, U.S. Air Force Command and Staff College, U.S. Army Command and General Staff College, and U.S. Naval War College about the SAW program and application requirements.


Officers meeting the admissions criteria will, in accordance with this message, accomplish the following: (1) submit an email stating intent to apply by 1 August 2022, (2) submit all application materials via Moodle by 15 August 2022, and (3) participate in a SAW selection panel interview. Selected applicants and alternates will be screened for eligibility, notified by MARADMIN, and issued orders to attend SAW. Send the Intent to Apply to the Program Manager at melissa....@usmcu.edu and Admin Support at sky....@usmcu.edu. You will receive further instructions following regarding the application process.


Eligible and competitive applicants will schedule an individual panel interview between 1 September and 1 November 2022 with SAW Program Manager. All needed information will be sent by email. In-person interviews for out-of-area applicants are not required; applicants outside the Washington, D.C. area who cannot make an in-person interview will be scheduled to conduct a Google Hangout video teleconferencing (VTC) or phone interview. More than half of the interviews are conducted via VTC and applicants are discouraged from flying to the DC area specifically for the interview.


General eligibility prerequisites for the School of Advanced Warfighting are those regulations and requirements established by the military services to select active duty, military students to attend an advanced intermediate-level professional military education (PME) institution. Specific admissions prerequisites for the School of Advanced Warfighting are contained in the MARADMIN. General requirements are listed below:


Grade: A promoted O-4 (Major/LCDR) and must not have previously failed selection for O-5. An officer must not be a selected or promoted Lieutenant Colonel at the time of application to SAW. If in zone for selection at the time of application to SAW, failure for selection to Lieutenant Colonel terminates SAW eligibility.


The SAW curriculum requires students to be able to travel extensively and participate actively in various educational forums to include battlefield site studies involving moderate to rigorous hikes over rough terrain and in remote sites overseas. Active duty military students must meet the mandatory physical fitness and height/weight requirements for their respective military service.


Congratulations on your selection to attend the School of Advanced Warfighting (SAW). Here you will find required SAW specific documents for new students. Please visit the MCU New Student Check-In page before you complete any of the requirements on this page. If you have any questions about pre-arrival requirements, please email melissa....@usmcu.edu.


Q: I am seeking letters of recommendation; do you prefer those recommendations are sent to you and/or the Director by email, phone call, or an official letter of recommendation by mail?


Sledgehammer Games' first solo outing in the Call of Duty franchise, Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare, will leap forward even further into the future than Call of Duty: Black Ops II. Set in 2054, the game will put players in the shoes of Private Jack Mitchell as he is recruited into the private military organization Atlas, and introduce a new range of weapons along with a military exoskeleton that offers new strength and versatility to the player's abilities.


Whether or not this will actually make for a ground-breaking Call of Duty experience or whether it will still feel like more of the same remains to be seen, but Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare already has some pretty excellent trailers on its side, as well as the presence of House of Cards star Kevin Spacey, who plays Atlas CEO Jonathan Irons.


Activision has now released a launch trailer for Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare that also lays claim to being a gameplay trailer, although it's mainly comprised of cinematics. Like the original reveal trailer it works largely due to the use of music, but unlike that trailer this new promo seems to pushing the idea of warfare as a fun thrill ride, complete with cheery choruses of "Oorah!" and action shots of characters flying through the air while firing their guns. The choice of accolades also seems to be heavily pushing the cinematic aspects of the story campaign.


Call of Duty: Advanced Warfarerecently faced predictions that it could sell up to 3 million fewer copies than its immediate predecessor, Call of Duty: Ghosts, and while some of this may have to do with the transition from last-gen to current-gen consoles, it's also possible that the franchise's annual release schedule has been getting wearying for both the developers and gamers.


For those who have eschewed consoles entirely, or have simply decided to play Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare on PC, Steam has just revealed the minimum specs required to run the game. Luckily for those who haven't upgraded their rig in a while, it doesn't look like there's been a huge leap upwards in requirements since Call of Duty: Ghosts.


With Sledgehammer now onboard alongside Treyarch and Infinity Ward, the Call of Duty franchise currently has a three-year development cycle that could offer the studios the breathing room they need in order to change things up with each new entry. Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare will be the first test of whether this extended development cycle has had a positive effect on the franchise, and we're certainly interested to see what Sledgehammer has brought to the table.
