When an applicant receives an AoG scholarship/sponsorship, the RC makes the recommendation on information based on the applicants WCS and may have been influenced from a local FFL. Usually the Candidate needed to be polished up a little more. As you know the candidate is 3Q'd but their ACT/SAT scores just aren't there but otherwise a very competitive candidate. The candidate is usually very motivated to attend WP, but a little apprehensive to invest another year of school while comparing themselves to others who are going off pressuring their goals. Not many leave or walk out of going to a civil prep school. I haven't heard of any but their may have been a few. The civil prep is an outstanding opportunity in two great ways. The civil prep school will polish up the candidate and will be better prepared to handle the academic load of 20 to 21 credit units through the 47 months at WP. The civil preps are in communications with the WP admin giving reports on progress and eventually a report with approval or no approval. Two, if the candidate decides not to pursue or is not accepted, their ACT/SAT scores will be higher and will have a wider range of colleges to select and be better prepared for college. Either way its a outstanding opportunity. MMI credits are transferable to colleges where applicable.
MMI is a great school. There are other civil prep schools available, have you investigate the others who also accept AoG scholarships?
The candidate will need to seek another nom source and MMI will be there to assist them. If they are not selected, by WP its no big deal. They will find their success!
