WASHINGTON DC (September 24, 2019) — Representative Dave Loebsack announced today that his office is now accepting applications for nomination to the US Service Academies. Each year, Rep Loebsack may nominate up to ten Iowans for each of our nation’s four military-service academies, with the final selection for admission made by the individual Academy. Applications are due to Rep Loebsack’s office no later than October 31, 2019.
“As a military parent with children who attended the Naval Academy, this process is very personal to me,” said Rep Loebsack. “I look forward to nominating our future leaders and encourage all interested students to apply.”
Our nation’s military-service academies offer educational opportunities for young people interested in military service. Students can specialize in a variety of fields at the US Military Academy at West Point, US Naval Academy at Annapolis, the Air Force Academy at Colorado Springs, or the Merchant Marine Academy at Kings Point.
