Academy Information

Please rank the academies you are interested in attending – with 1 being your highest preference. Only rank those academies to which you are applying and would be willing to attend if offered a nomination and appointment.

An appointment to the Service Academies is based on a desire by the candidate to devote a lifetime of military service and implies recognition by the appointee of an obligation to the government to devote himself / herself to a military career.

Are you interested in an appointment on that basis?
