<p>one other comment , if S is REALLY committed, and doesnt get admitted, you might consider one of many ‘self-prep’ options. One example, a kid from Calif. was at NMMi, without AOG sponsorship, and was offered in Dec USMAPS, so he didnt come back in spring… so his path to USMA. One semester NMMI, one semester off, one year USMAPS then West Point</p>
<p>keep the faith</p>
