| https://sablan.house.gov/application-deadline-extended | Application deadline extended | 2018-12-10 | 2018 | 2018-12 | Democrat | House | MP | Gregorio Sablan | S001177 | sablan.house.gov | legacy | Application deadline extended Dec 10, 2018 Due to the devastation caused by typhoons Mangkhut and Yutu, and the ensuing power outages and extended school closures, we have decided to extend the deadline for aspiring young individuals to apply for a congressional nomination to the U.S. service academies. The new deadline is Friday, December 14, 2018. Young men and women who are interested in an exceptional college education at no cost and are committed to serving our country have seven additional days to apply. There are openings for appointees from the Northern Marianas at theU.S. Air Force Academy, theU.S. Merchant Marine Academy, theU.S. Naval Academy, and theU.S. Military Academyfor next year's incoming class. As your Congressman, I may make nominations, but the final selection among nominees is made by academy admissions officials. They look for strong grades, high SAT or ACT scores, physical ability, and leadership potential. Service academy graduates receive an officer's commission and must serve for five years. More information and an application form are available athttps://sablan.house.gov/serving-you/academy-nominations, and at your local congressional office. | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
