Tokuda (HI-02) announced that her office will begin accepting applications on Friday, August 1, 2026, from students in Hawaiʻi’s Second Congressional District seeking a nomination to one of the United States military service academies. Qualified applicants must submit their complete applications no later than Sunday, October 18, 2026, at 11:59 p.m. HST. Every year, members of Congress, including Rep. Tokuda, are allotted a limited number of nominations for exceptional applicants from their districts seeking appointments to the U.S. Air Force Academy, the U.S. Military Academy at West Point, the U.S. Naval Academy, and the U.S. Merchant Marine Academy. “Every year, I am humbled to nominate students from Hawaiʻi who are ready to serve our country and lead with purpose,” said Rep. Tokuda, a member of the House Armed Services Committee. “Our service academies ask a lot of these young people, but Hawaiʻi students know what it means to carry responsibility, care for community, and step up when it matters. I encourage eligible students across Hawaiʻi’s Second Congressional District to apply.” To be considered for a nomination, candidates must reside in Hawaiʻi’s Second Congressional District, meet the basic eligibility requirements established by the academies, and submit a complete nomination application by Sunday, October 18, 2026, at 11:59 p.m. HST.
