To: OZZYMOM - Thanks!!!!!!!!!!
To Buff81: You are passing bad info here. Please allow me to rectify.
NMMI "yearly costs" for all but books is $10871.00 not $12750.00. All sponsored preps get in-state rates. Self preps may have to pay the higher prices.
NMMI has the same program for "uniform reimbursement" as Marion. It's called "Commutation Pay" and is awarded if the cadet passes the APFT as administered by the Army ROTC program. Since all NMMI cadets are enrolled in ROTC and actively pursuing a commission, they are eligible regardless of the SA they are applying for.
The "grant" you site is not accurate. The WP AoG awards $3k, The Falcon Foundation awards $5k and the MMA gives $4k. The USNA Foundation scholarship is based on family finances. As was already stated, many other scholarships are available.
All NMMI costs can be found at:

I hope this helps others who are investigating the different Prep Schools.
