Each year members of Congress are able to nominate a limited number of people from their districts to the U.S. Service Academies—including the Air Force, West Point, Annapolis and Merchant Marine. The honor of attending a service academy comes with an obligation and commitment to serve in the military for a minimum of five years upon graduation. Congressman Tipton nominated 22 students from the 3rd Congressional District in 2014 to U.S. Service Academies. The students selected met and exceeded the stringent requirements of the respective academy and of Tipton’s office. Students that applied were required to submit an essay, test scores, an application, letters of recommendation, transcripts, and complete an in-person interview before a panel in order to be considered. Interested students, who meet the minimum Service Academy eligibility requirements (which can be found HERE), can download an application HERE. The deadline for applications is October 6, and students should submit their information to Brian McCain with Tipton’s office at Brian.McCain@mail.house.gov or (719) 542-1073. | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
