SERVICE ACADEMIES
Juniors interested in the Service Academies and R.O.T.C. scholarship
programs must begin the process as soon as possible to insure that
they receive full consideration. The first step in securing an
appointment to one of the academies is to request a pre-candidate
questionnaire. Addresses follow:

606 Thayer Road Colorado Springs, CO 80840
West Point, NY 10996-1797 (303) 472-2520
(914) 938-4041

Annapolis, MD 21402-5018 Kings Point, NY 11024
(301) 267-4361 (516) 773-5391
The second step is to secure a nomination. You may request an
application form for a nomination from the Vice-President, both
of your U.S. Senators and your U.S. Representative. In your letter,
you should inform them that you have requested a Pre-Candidate
Questionnaire (step one) and you should indicate your first, second,
third and fourth choices of academies. Include your address telephone
number, date of birth, social security, name of high school, year
of graduation, and your parents’ name.
The Coast Guard Academy has an admissions procedure similar to
other highly competitive colleges. There is no nomination process
involved. Write directly for an application:
