Hello,
I am considering attending Northwestern Prep next semester. I was rejected from both USAFA and USNA this cycle and was not offered a FFS or a USNA foundation scholarship. My ALO/BGO's insist that I was a highly qualified candidate but simply did not make the cut.
The $14k cost of the 6 month NWP course seems like a great investment, especially considering that NWP claims an 85% acceptance rate to academies for it's graduates.

Some questions I have are:
- Does not having a Foundation Scholarship make me a less competitive candidate at NWP?
- Is it difficult to be accepted into NWP/ is it late in the year to apply?
- To any graduates from NWP, how was your experience there?
- Is it really true that near 85% of graduates are accepted into their academy of choice?
