Thank you for your interest in the U.S. Service Academies. As your 1st District Representative in the U.S. House of Representatives, each year I have the privilege of nominating a limited number of people to four of the five service academies. The honor of attending a service academy comes with an obligation and commitment to serve in the military for a minimum of five years upon graduation. 

To request a nomination from my office please complete the form below and include the following items with your application packet:

  • Current Photo
  • High School/College Transcripts
  • ACT or SAT Assessment test results (ACT code: 7240) (SAT code: 4503)
  • Resume of extracurricular activities
  • An essay stating why you want to attend a military academy (500 words or less)
  • Three letters of recommendation.

Please mail your completed nomination packet to my Oroville District office by October 31, 2014. Late application packets will not be accepted. 

Important dates to remember:

Academy Information

Number your preference (1 to 4) of academies — with 1 being your highest preference

An appointment to the Service Academies is based on a desire by the candidate to devote a lifetime of military service and implies recognition by the appointee of an obligation to the government to devote him / herself to a military career. Are you interested in an appointment on that basis?

Additional Information

Is it okay to use your name in a press release after receiving a nomination or appointment?

Please include a list of your extra curricular activities and leadership responsibilities.
