I think they get ahold of your contact info through the PSAT college search, but am not sure.
I've got a few of those too.... They look very official, but since they were allways so expensive I never went. Try googling them maybe, I'm sure if it's a scam or not worth it people will have made it known on the internet.

Re: Has Anybody Heard Of Or Attended........

NYLF's are relatively legit (but still resume padding), but super expensive. Talk to your school guidance counselor about it if you're interested. I've had friends go on the med ones but I don't know any who went on National Security.

If you're looking for leadership stuff I'd definitly recommend NOLS as you can get college credit for it too, which is nice.

Re: Has Anybody Heard Of Or Attended........

yeah well i didnt really mean a scam as much as i did "resume padding".

thanks guys for your input and help, because it seemed pretty cool but unfortunately it isnt in our price range. tuition itslef is $1,315, which is alot of money for six days.
