Never Give Up! (Don't get upset, this video is not real, just keep watching)
Click Play Above
I know that many of you are frustrated right now with only two academy classes scheduled so far this year. I suggest that you apply online today as we are still accepting applications. Be patient and stay positive. Remember, it could take up to, and longer than, twelve weeks before you will be contacted for an interview. Get your application in today as things could change at anytime and more academy classes could be funded. One of our applicant's sent me this (commercial) video to let me know, he is not giving up and is making the best out of the situation. I wanted to share.
