Service Academy Scholarships

To be considered for an appointment to a service academy, an applicant must have a nomination from an authorized nominating source. Title 10, U.S. Code Annotated establishes two nomination categories. The first, usually referred  to as “congressional nominations,” includes the nominations of the Vice President and Members of the United States House of Representatives and Senate. The second, referred to as “service connected” or “military-affiliated” nominations, includes the selections of the President and nominations of the appropriate service. Appointment to an academy includes a four-year scholarship with a service obligation.

Each academy’s freshman class convenes in late June/early July. Therefore, high school students will be submitting their applications during the fall of their senior year and will enter the academy right after high school graduation. Students will be notified of their acceptance by April of the year they enter the academy.
