Crapo Announces 2012 Idaho Military Academy Nominations

Washington, DC - Idaho Senator Mike Crapo announced his nominations of58 Idaho students to military service academies for the freshman class entering in 2013.  The students' applications are now being considered by four of the U.S. service academies, where final selections will be made.

 

"These Idaho students represent our best and brightest, headed not only for a superior education at our service academies, but in many cases, years of service to protect the freedoms we hold dear," Crapo said.  "I join all Idahoans in saluting these young Idahoans in choosing to serve and defend our security and freedom."

 

Each year, U.S. Senators and Representatives make nominations to four of the service academies.  Each academy then selects from the students nominated.  Crapo made nominations to the following:  the U.S. Air Force Academy, Colorado Springs, Colorado; the U.S. Merchant Marine Academy, Kings Point, New York; the U.S. Military Academy, West Point, New York; and the U.S. Naval Academy, Annapolis, Maryland.  Congressional nominations are not required for students attending the U.S. Coast Guard Academy. 

 

To be eligible for nominations, each student submitted an application and references, and met certain scholastic requirements under a deadline.  A nomination does not guarantee acceptance.  Those wishing to apply for future nominations should contact Karen Roetter in Crapo's North Idaho Office in Coeur d'Alene at (208) 664-5490, or visit Crapo's website at https://www.crapo.senate.gov/services/academy_nominations.cfm.
