Would anyone care to explain why one would have to pay close to 11,000 per year at Kingspoint, but still serve after one graduates? I am just curious. Thank you.
Where are you seeing the $11,000 fee?Would anyone care to explain why one would have to pay close to 11,000 per year at Kingspoint, but still serve after one graduates? I am just curious. Thank you.
Isn't the 11,000 for all four years? The other academies make the students pay their fees as well. However, the other academies are DOD and the cadets get paid each month. Fees come out of their pay checks. KP doesn't pay the students. They only get paid while at sea. About $1,000 per month. The othe SA have 5 year active duty requirement with 8 years reserves. KP has requirement they work in Merchant Marine industry OR serve 5 years, plus the 8 year reserve requirement. Very different opportunities for KP. BUT the $11,000 is most likely all four years. Plebe year is 3-4k and other years 2-3k. Costs are more for plebe because they have to buy computer, plebe package, etc. Google "logging in for 2019 USMMA" and you will find the breakdown. My oldest DD is at 4 year college. She pays those costs plus tuition, room and board. Actually she's on full ride for those but has other costs....computer, books, parking, etc.
