Hello! I am also a FFS and will also be attending NWP this fall. I emailed Mrs.Durbeck with similar questions and this was her response "1. DO NOT OPEN A USAFA APPLICATION. That is important because they will streamline your application on your portal once you are in session at NWPrep. (No...

I'm also from Virginia and will be attending NWP on a Falcon Foundation Scholarship- so excited to meet everyone!

Still waiting...

Waiting... Presidential & MOC noms

But did they do like A-L today and M-Z tomorrow?? I haven't heard anything yet- portal stills says "Candidate" & I am freaking out!

Are they being sent out by alphabetical order?

Hello, I just received my new SAT scores from the rescheduled test on February 20th. I was finally able to achieve a qualifying math score of 610. This isn't huge- but it is definitely an improvement from my previous score of 550. The rest of my scores are W 590, M 610, and CR 570. My critical...

Thank you everyone! I sent in my deposit for NWP this morning. If I do not hear anything from the academy this year, that plan B is set in stone. Thank you for all the advice, help, and encouragement!

As of now, self prep. I have not heard back from USAFA yet- however my math score is academically disqualifying and prep school is in the picture. I am trying to get my plan B's and C's in place. I have been accepted to 5-6 other universities so far, but USAFA is my #1 goal. I had a tutor for my...

Hello! I am currently a candidate for USAFA- however, my test scores (32 CR, 23 M, 26 W, 26 S: 550M, 570 CR, 560 W) are holding me back. I retook my SAT and am still waiting to hear back about the scores- but it is very late in the process. I self-applied to Northwestern Prep and it seems like...

Pima, So they are definitely allowing late scores? According to College Board, my February scores will not reach USAFA until March 16th. That seems super late!

I am signed up for the SAT this upcoming weekend. It was originally scheduled for Jan 23rd, but rescheduled due to a blizzard. I am hoping I improve my scores- as I have been studying for months and truly putting in the work. However, I know admissions will receive these scores way past the...

Hello, I just got my ACT scores back- and they're not pretty. E 26, CR 32, M 23, S 26. The main subject I drastically need to raise is math. It is the only one in my portal with brackets around it. Even my SAT math score is a 550, just 10 points shy of being qualified with a 560. I have taken...

Thank you everyone, your advice and encouragement means the world! I called my admissions counselor and unfortunately the scores would not arrive in time with the rescheduled SAT date. However, I am now on the wait list for the ACT on February 6th. I have taken the ACT twice (highest scores -...

Would prep school still be a possibility even with those scores?
