I’m again honored to do my part to ensure that Hawaiʻi continues our long tradition of contributing to the next generation of America’s outstanding military leaders.” A Congressional nomination is the exclusive avenue for appointment to our nation’s service academies for most applicants. A nomination does not guarantee an appointment, but it is a requirement for final consideration for the U.S. Military Academy, U.S. Naval Academy, U.S. Air Force Academy and the U.S. Merchant Marine Academy. Successful applicants must have high moral character, a strong academic record and a motivation to dutifully serve our nation. In a letter to all high schools in his district (see below), Case said: “An applicant must also be a U.S. citizen, a high school graduate between the ages of 17 and 23, unmarried and without dependents. Fully completed applications must be received by my office no later than October 10, 2025. Please also visit my military academy nomination webpage at https://case.house.gov/services/service-academy-nominations.htm.” Case continued: “Additionally, please note that I may only consider applicants who are legal residents of the First Congressional District which I represent (Honolulu from Makapu‘u through Downtown and Pearl City up to Mililani and then through Waipahu and ‘Ewa Beach to Kapolei). My office can assist in verifying this requirement, but you can check yourself by entering your home address here: https://www.house.gov/representatives/find-your-representative. “I encourage and invite students and school officials assisting candidates with their applications to mail in application packets to my Honolulu Office and or submit applications electronically in a Portable Document Format (.pdf) to my Honolulu office staff via Nestor Garcia at Nestor.Garcia@mail.house.gov, or contact him at phone (808) 650-6688.” Attachment: Case letter to high school principals, college career counselors and JROTC instructors ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-07T14:57:50Z |
