As of 1 July 2016, the Board on Law Enforcement Officer Standards and Training (MBLEOST) required all Mississippi law enforcement training academies to administer an ENTRY LEVEL FITNESS TEST to those recruits reporting to the eleven (11) week basic training program. We will give this examination immediately upon reporting for training whether a recruit can remain at the academy for the eleven (11) week program.
Students must achieve a passing score of 50% on this examination. Should a recruit fail any portion of this pre-enrollment examination, we will ask that he or she leave the academy. They may, however, resubmit their application to attend a future class. The test consists of three components: agility run, pushups, and a 1.5 mile run. This will be the same test administered at the end of the eleven (11) week basic training program. We will give a recruit only one opportunity to pass the pre-enrollment examination.
