Congressman Scott Announces Availablity of 2010 Military Service Academy Nomination Packets

Congressman David Scott has announced that the 2010 Military Service Academy Nominaton applications are now available for students of the 13th Congressional District.

"Being selected for nomination to a military service academy by a Member of Congress is an exceptional honor and responsibility.  It is my privilege to make these nominations, and you can be assured that it is a responsibility that I take most seriously. The process toward achieving a nomination is a long and arduous one.  Our country’s military service academies provide exceptional opportunities to their graduates: honor through service to the United States; a first-rate education with outstanding technical training; fulfillment of career aspirations; and chances for positions of leadership.  I urge you to encourage interested students to take the time to survey each academy and to consider all that each school has to offer.  After initiating the nomination process with my office, students must also register directly with those academies in which they are interested."

The 2010 Military Service Academy Nomination application packets are available on-line here and at the district offices. On-line application is preferred and strongly encourged. This year’s deadline for receipt of packets at the Jonesboro district office is October 30, 2009 by 5:00 pm. If you have any questions regarding the nomination selection process, please do not hesitate to call Congressman Scott's Military Academy Nomination Coordinator, David J. Johnson or Teresa Cooke-Cooper, at (770) 210-5073.
