Academy Nominations
Since 1802, many of America's finest students have sought to enroll as cadets or midshipmen at the nation's prestigious United States service academies. To apply to attend the Naval, Military, Air Force or Merchant Marine Academies students must receive a nomination from one of their Members of Congress.
Applicants must be at least 17 years old and no more than 22 years old as of July 1st of the year of admission to a service academy. Interested Mainers should contact my office in the spring or summer of their junior year in high school. For your convenience, the application and a checklist of all necessary items to be submitted for consideration in can be accessed here.
The application cycle for the class of 2021 is now closed. The application cycle for the class of 2022 will open May 15, 2017. The next Service Academy Night will be held in Bangor next April. Representatives from various service academies will be on hand as well as staff from Maine's four congressional offices. More details on this event will be provided at a later date.
If you have any questions regarding service academy nominations, please contact Katie Fellows, my Nominations Coordinator, at kathryn_fellows@king.senate.gov.
