Military Service Academy Information Day to be held Saturday

 U.S. Rep. Steven C. LaTourette (R-Bainbridge Township) today announced that his annual Military Academy Information Day will be held on Saturday, September 20, at 9:30 a.m. at Auburn Career Center, 8140 Auburn Road, Concord Township.

 Representatives from the U.S. Air Force Academy, U.S. Military Academy (West Point), U.S. Naval Academy, U.S. Coast Guard Academy and the U.S. Merchant Marine Academy will attend.  The program is open to students of all ages and their families.  Anyone who has an interest in learning more about the service academies and the nomination process is welcome to attend.

 LaTourette said his office uses the “competitive” nomination process, which is used by most members of Congress.  LaTourette is able to submit up to 10 nominations for each vacancy at the various academies.  Candidates are then ranked by the admissions offices in order of merit in accordance with the specific academy system.  The most highly qualified student is selected for an offer of admission (appointment) to fill the vacancy.

 This process applies to all service academies except the United States Coast Guard Academy in New London, Connecticut.  It offers appointments solely on the basis of an annual nationwide competition, and there are no Congressional nominations or geographical quotas involved.
