Opportunity Through Performance.
Female Challengers participate in XMC’s leadership and career exploration programs alongside male Challengers in a disciplined training environment. Effort, conduct, character and the applicable standards determine achievement.
Know the Requirements for the Course.
The general summer program serves ages 13–18. Individual courses have additional age, prerequisite, fitness and selection requirements. Qualified female Ranger candidates must meet the same published graduation requirements as male candidates. Female Cadets may enroll only in Cadet Ranger School Session 2, July 11–24, 2027. At least three qualified female Cadets must be enrolled for a female training element to run. All course prerequisites and standards apply.
International Experience. Shared Achievement.
Female Challengers have traveled from abroad, completed Basic Training and progressed through specialty and selected leadership courses. Their achievements reflect determination, preparation and sustained effort.
