Congressman Scott Announces Approaching Deadline for 2010 Military Academy Applications

Today Congressman David Scott announced that the deadline for submission of 2010 Military Service Academy Nominaton applications is quickly approaching 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. 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."

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 29, 2010 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, Teresa Cooke-Cooper, at (770) 210-5073.
