BURNSVILLE – Congressman John Kline’s U.S. Service Academy Information Session is this Monday, April 25 at the Diamondhead Education Center in Burnsville. The information session for students will provide information to candidates and their families about the application process, and how candidates can seek nomination through his congressional office as well as their U.S. Senators.

Kline’s information session will provide valuable information about the application process to interested students and their families including requirements for admission, the application timeline, and the process for seeking a Congressional nomination from a member of Congress. Representatives from the U.S. Air Force Academy, U.S. Merchant Marine Academy, West Point, U.S. Naval Academy, and offices of Sens. Klobuchar and Franken have been invited to participate.

In January, Kline nominated 21 students from around Minnesota’s 2nd Congressional District to U.S. Service Academies for the class of 2020. Because he is retiring from Congress at the end of this year, Kline’s nomination process for the service academy class of 2021 is earlier this year. In 14 years of Congress, Kline has nominated more than 300 students to U.S. Service Academies.

Kline’s U.S. Service Academy Information Session is from 6-8:30 p.m., this Monday, April 25, at:

Diamondhead Education Center

Door 1

200 West Burnsville Parkway

Burnsville

John Kline, a 25-year veteran of the U.S. Marine Corps whose wife is a retired Army nurse and son has served four tours in Iraq and Afghanistan, serves on the House Armed Services Committee.
