Military Academy Nominations
Each year, I nominate qualified applicants to attend the U.S. Air Force Academy, the U.S. Naval Academy, the U.S. Military Academy (West Point), and the U.S. Merchant Marine Academy.
Applicants must be U.S. citizens between the ages of 17 and 22 on July 1 of their admission year. They also cannot be married, pregnant, or have any legal obligation to support children or other dependents. They must reside within the 3rd Congressional District of Kentucky.
Gaining admittance into any of the United States Service Academies takes hard work, dedication, and above all else, a strong desire to serve in the armed forces. To be eligible for appointment, you must distinguish yourself from your peers by showing leadership, physical ability and mental fortitude. I wish you luck throughout your application process.
Our nomination process starts in the summer. I have listed the items that you will need for your application to our office below. This is subject to change, so please check back for updates on application deadlines and required information for the application process.
