My daughter received her TWE with no chance of Falcon or Prep one year ago this week. Of course she was disappointed. We sat down together and looked at all of the options: Civilian college, Accept her Type 7, or Self Prep. She decided she wanted to improve herself and reapply, so we researched all the prep programs. They are very different. She talked to NWP and attended as a free agent. She loved it there, made great friends, and will be joining many of those friends at AFA this June 26th. If you still want to attend AFA, I strongly encourage you to look into the prep school options. Call Mrs. D at NWP and talk to her. Whether you decide to go there or not, she will give you good information. I am partial to NWP - it is amazing and changed my daughter in many ways - but look into all of them. Don't wait.
