Representative Tom Davis invites high school students interested in applying for a congressional nomination to one of the military service academies to contact his Annandale office their junior year. Candidates whose permanent residence is in the 11th Congressional District of Virginia should write Congressman Davis using the format of the sample letter shown here (Microsoft Word document). The address is:

The Honorable Tom Davis
4115 Annandale Road, Suite 103
Annandale, VA 220033

Upon receipt of the candidate's letter further information will be provided by return mail. Questions may be directed to Carol Ford in the Annandale office (703 916-9610). The deadline for receiving all required information is October 24th of the year preceding entrance to a service academy. I encourage you to turn in your completed application as soon as possible.

If you are interested in becoming a leader, serving your country, and receiving a high-quality education, consider applying to one of our nation's military service academies. The academies offer academic and intellectual growth, personal development, and leadership training for men and women in many career fields. Besides a cost-free education, all students at the academies receive modest pay and allowances. Graduates are commissioned as officers in one of our armed services.

In addition to a nomination from a U.S. Congressman or U.S. Senator, candidates must apply to the service academy of their choice. Information on the academies' admission requirements and standards can be obtained by telephoning or writing to the admissions offices of the academies.
