the opportunity to serve the United States.
Upon the acceptance
of appointment into an Academy a student commits to five years
of active duty service after graduation. The application process
of the appointments must be completed by November of the year
before the class enters the academy.
Qualifications include:
- a male or female
between the ages of 17 and 21 by July 1 of the year of entry

is determined on an individual basis.

in applying and would like more information please contact Pam
