Academy Nominations

Thank you for your interest in attending one of our Nation's military academies. As a 1980 graduate of West Point, I take special pride in making appointments of promising young men and women to the United States military academies. It is my pleasure to consider you for an appointment to one of these prestigious institutions.

To be eligible for appointment, you must be an American citizen, at least 17 years old and no more than 23 years old on July 1, not married, no legal obligation to support a child, and a legal resident of the 19th District of Illinois.

You may contact Dora Rohan of my staff at (618) 344-3065 and let her know of your interest. Please note that you must start an application process with the academy you are applying to as well as the nomination process through my office.
