Rep. Meuser: Students Reminded to Apply for Congressional Nomination to Service Academies by Nov. 1

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Congressman Dan Meuser is encouraging all high school seniors interested in obtaining a congressional nomination to a U.S. service academy to apply prior to the November 1stdeadline.
"It takes an exceptional individual to choose a career path dedicated to service and one’s country,” said Rep. Dan Meuser. “Every year, it’s a privilege to nominate some of the most outstanding students from Pennsylvania’s Ninth District to our nation’s service academies. I commend the dedication and effort displayed by these students, both inside and outside of the classroom. I look forward to watching them serve our country, as they embark on a challenging yet rewarding career in the U.S. military.”
The application process for a service academy nomination is currently open and the deadline to submit is November 1, 2023.
Congressman Meuser has the privilege of nominating candidates to four of the five U.S. service academies: U.S. Military Academy at West Point, U.S. Naval Academy, U.S. Air Force Academy, and U.S. Merchant Marine Academy. The U.S. Coast Guard Academy does not require a congressional nomination for appointment.
Due to the high number of qualified applicants, the Congressman holds a competitive application process. In addition, every candidate is interviewed by Congressman Meuser and his Academy Nomination Board, which consists of Academy representatives, military veterans, and other leaders from the community.
