    I know that enlisted soldiers can apply to WP, but can Reservists also apply for a service-connected nomination? I am currently deciding between attending a junior college with ROTC and Army Reserve or an SMC, but I want to gain as much soldier experience I can before I become a cadet.

    Are Asians Considered Minorities at WP?

    What is ISI?

    There was an information seminar in the Thousand Oaks area of California a couple days ago, and the admissions officer kept talking about an ISI program. I'm not exactly sure what it stood for, or what it even is, and an online search didn't seem to help. Does anybody know what it is?
