Application Information
Members of Congress may nominate candidates for appointment to four of the five U.S. service academies: U.S. Military Academy (USMA), West Point, NY; the U.S. Naval Academy (USNA), Annapolis, MD; the U.S. Air Force Academy (USAFA), Colorado Springs, CO; and the U.S. Merchant Marine Academy (USMMA), Kings Point, NY. The fifth service academy, the U.S. Coast Guard Academy (USCGA), New London, CT, does not require a congressional nomination for appointment.
Representative McBath may nominate individuals for each vacant academy slot allotted to our district. The honor of attending a service academy comes with the obligation and commitment to serve in the military for a minimum of five years upon graduation.
The application portal for the class of 2030 is closed. Applicants will be contacted for interviews soon.
All applications must have been completed via the webform, and three letters of reference letters must have been submitted to our office. Applications and reference letters were due by 11:59 pm on Sunday, October 12th, 2025.
