falcon foundation

I’m a USAFA class 26’ applicant and this is my first time creating a thread on this forum. I am currently in a “good” dilemma because I have received the FFS and I have received an appointment to USNA. My heart was completely set on attending USAFA after attending the Summer Seminar but when I...

My daughters received today an invitation to attend the "United States Air Force Academy Class Appointee Event" but there's no official appointment. Instead, she was offered a Falcon Foundation Scholarship to go to an USAFA affiliated prep school. She still wants to go to USAFA and is...

Hello, I am a Falcon Foundation Scholar and I am somewhat confused about how the application works as a scholar. From people I know, they said that the only things I would have to redo for the next application cycle are the CFA, ALO Interview, and the Nominations. Can someone explain how the...

Hello, Yesterday I received confirmation that I was not directly appointed, however, I am a Falcon Foundation Scholar. While slightly disappointed with no direct appointment, I am still happy, proud, and grateful that I am being seen as a viable candidate and to have this golden ticket...

I'm starting this thread so that Falcon Scholars have an idea of who has also received a FFS and which prep schools they'll be attending. For those not aware of what the Falcon Foundation and their scholarship is: The Falcon Foundation was formed in 1958 by a group of retired Air Force...

All, DD received Falcon scholarship on 3/16. 1. I’m curious if others on this forum have received notice for this fall and what prep schools are being considered. 2. She is seriously considering NWP, but I have some concerns about the second semester. Can any NWP alumni speak to their second...

I had posted earlier about whether or not to accept a falcon foundation scholarship; however, I neglected to ask which one should I attend for the best chance of earning an appointment next year. I already have the scholarship, but I need to pick a prep school by the end of the week. Any...

Hi- I was looking into the FFS, and I was wondering how the foundation chooses its scholars. Obviously they don't pick the next hundred that didn't make it to the Academy. I'm guessing the trend is that they pick people with good gpa's and ec's but have a lower test scores on ACT/SAT. If...
