The Naval Academy Foundation, Inc, help promissing candidates who are not appointed in their first try for admissions. The organization provides a limited number of scholarships for post-high school prep studies to enhance those candidates qualifications for admission. Cash grants are made by the Foundation to the participating junior college or prep school selected.
As fars as odds, that is a determination you have to make, based on the strength of your application. See http://www.usna.edu/Admissions/BGO/docs/educatorbrief.ppt for for some statistics on USNA applications.
Good Luck!

Well, without a recommendation would seem one would not even be considered by the Foundation. BTW: The Foundation is a super organization. i contribute more than i can afford each year.
The BG Brief at the URL i gave you has number on Foundation acceptances, one of the later slides.
SPECULATION ONLY: i would think the board liked your application, persona. i would think that if you gained outstanding grades in your junior college/prep school, and otherwise contributed to your application, guided by your application in comparison to the stats in the brief, you would be very competitive. In other words, they saw you once, did not eliminate you and are giving an opportunity/encouragement to improve. Just my thoughts, nothing even approaching semi official.
Take charge, find those areas that you need improvement in, set goals, focus on those goals and do your best.
Best of luck.

I went to NAPS with quite a few people who did the Foundation program. A very large percentage of them graduated with me from USNA, too. I'm not sure how many people who do the Foundation program gain admission directly to USNA, but I would imagine that it's more than who go to NAPS. The Chief's right: Kick ass, take names, and you'll find yourself in Annapolis if you want it.
