Service Academy Nomination
| The honor of attending a service academy comes with the obligation and
commitment to serve in the military for a minimum of five years upon
graduation. Members of Congress may nominate candidates for appointment to four of the five U.S. service academies: U.S. Military Academy (USMA), West Point, NY; the U.S. Naval Academy (USNA), Annapolis, MD; the U.S. Air Force Academy (USAFA), Colorado Springs, CO; and the U.S. Merchant Marine Academy (USMMA), Kings Point, NY. The fifth service academy, the U.S. Coast Guard Academy (USCGA), New London, CT, does not require a congressional nomination for appointment. Each Member may nominate up to ten individuals for each vacant academy slot allotted to our district. To request a U. S. Service Academy Nomination application packet from our office, please complete the form below. The nomination application period opens April 1st of an applicant’s junior year of high school. All application packets are due in my office by November 1st of the applicant’s senior year of high school. Best wishes to you as you pursue your goal of attending one of the U.S. Service Academies and serving our country. Required fields are followed by *. |
