I just recently got the final offer for a TXDPS state trooper job! (I need advice)

r/

Just got accepted into the academy for state troopers and I’m both excited and a bit nervous! I’m physically prepared, but I’d love to hear from anyone who’s been through it—what was your experience like? What are the essentials I should bring, and what should I avoid overpacking? I don’t want to be that person who shows up with way too much stuff. Any tips, advice, or things to watch out for would be super appreciated! :))

    They will give you a full, complete lacking list. Its important that you adhere to that list completely.

    No, you get your first assignment late in the academy.
