prep school

Hey y’all, I am wondering if I should aim for the prep school (USMAPS/MMI/NMI) before West Point. Coming out of high school, I have no military back ground in my family and no military experience, and not much technical military knowledge so I feel that this would put me behind in West Point...

Can a 2 year Community College student who is in the Air National Guard Pararescue apply to USMA/West Point if he's willing to join the U.S Army? The reason he wants to join USMA is because it's a good school that can build good character physically and mentally developing strong leadership...

Well guys we have almost made it to the end of this cycle. Some of our kids got in, some are heading to prep and some will take ROTC. Some will try agin next year. Anyone interested in meeting up for lunch in the city PM me. We are practically family at this point! We can keep each other...

I'd love to get to know some of yall before we meet! Also, does anyone know when we get a login for the MMI portal?

Hello, I am currently in tech school and have been highly interested in the USAFA since high school, but didn't take the opportunity to apply. Now that I am enlisted and know about the LEAD program, I am extremely excited to begin preparations for applying. I would just like some advice as far...

When is the best time to let admissions know you are willing to accept a sponsored prep school appointment? Shouldl you do it while you are on the NWL or wait for a decision for USMMA acceptance or decline? Don't want to jump the gun.

So my boyfriend is in the Navy Nuke program and there was a big group of them that applied and if I am correct they turned in their applications about a week ago. He told me yesterday that the academy had the selection board yesterday and I was just wondering if anyone had a clue how long it...

Hi all, I originally received a nomination to the naval academy, but I noticed that it was gone from my portal last night. After frantically contacting my admissions counselor my congressman's office contacted me to let me know they had rescinded my nomination. At first I was taken aback and...

Good Afternoon, I was just wondering how you apply to the USAFA prep school? I was going to use this as a backup if I don't get accepted to USAFA. Is it a separate application or does everyone who applies gets considered for a prep school appointment? I plan to apply out of high school. Thanks...

I'm currently at NAPS and was wondering about something since I came here. What would be the odds that I could get appointed to West Point after this year if I figured out I didn't want to go navy but wanted to go to West Point instead? Would I list West Point as a second option when applying...

I am an Appointee for USAFAPS Class of 2019! Because BMT is in less than two months, I was wondering if I could get any tips for BMT, packing (what to bring that's not on the list), and just the Prep School in general! Thank you!

I heard that there was about two more weeks left of handing out appointments and rejections. If you don't get either, then does that mean you are being considered for the prep school or an AOG scholarship? I know they have to wait for the acceptance deadline, but do they start filling in slots...

So if a rejection letter is sent my way sometime in the next few months, what does it mean for the future? One of my friends told me I'd be offered to attend USMAPS, is this true? Or do I just need to try again the next year for USMA? I have two nominations (rep and senator), am academically...

Congrats to everyone who has been notified of their offer of appointment to the Air Force Academy Preparatory School for the Class of 2019. If you would like, please post your information as follows: # posted) profile name / self-DD-DS / date notified of USAFA Prep offer /...

I applied USCGA and was not accepted and I am now waiting for the decision from NROTC. I applied and was accepted to Marion Military Institute in their USCGA prep program, but I’m not were to go from here. Do I have a better chance of getting into an academy next year by applying while at MMI or...

Do you have to have a nomination to get into the prep school or foundation?

I am currently attending NAPS with the class of 2018. I know while I was applying and when I got accepted to NAPS I had a lot of questions no one seemed to be able to answer. There's also a lack of information about NAPS on the web. So if you have any questions I'm happy to answer them!

I am currently enlisted in the Air Force and would like to attend the Air Force Academy. I arrived at my first duty station 2 months ago and I plan on submitting my lead packet within 6 months. I'm wondering whether the lead program is realistic for me and what I can do to improve my chances of...

Hello, I am currently enlisted (hit my one year mark this past October) and have taken a keen interest in applying to the Academy. I heard about the LEAD program from a friend and felt inclined to apply; with this being a service academy, I know the competition will be fierce, so I am much more...

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...
