Congresswoman Jane Harman is currently accepting nomination applications from residents of the 36th Congressional District who are interested in attending one of the nation's military academies.
The United States Service Academies rank competitively with the top academic institutions in the country. These academies offer young people a top-quality education and the opportunity for a career in the military. All educational costs are paid for by the U.S. government.
Congresswoman Harman will make nominations to the U.S. Air Force Academy, the U.S. Naval Academy (Annapolis), the U.S. Military Academy (West Point), and the U.S. Merchant Marine Academy for the class starting in the summer of 2008 (graduating class of 2012). The United States Coast Guard Academy (USCGA) is the only U.S. Service Academy that does not require a congressional nomination for appointment.
Prior to applying for a nomination, each candidate should contact the academies directly to request a Pre-Candidate Questionnaire. The basic eligibility requirements for an appointment as established by the service academies stipulate that candidates must be U.S. citizens, at least 17 but not older than 23 years of age, unmarried, not pregnant, and without legal obligation to support any dependents.
