Crapo Announces 2020 Military Academy Nominations

Nominations made to U.S. Military Service Academies for the 2020-2021 Academic Year

WASHINGTON – U.S. Senator Mike Crapo (R-Idaho) announced the nomination of 45 young Idahoans to the nation’s military academies.  The students’ applications will receive consideration by the U.S. service academies that will make final decisions on admittance.

“These students have demonstrated the best of Idaho’s commitment to service and country,” Crapo said.  “This year’s 45 nominees have indicated a desire and willingness to pursue higher education in one of these academies, and I have confidence in their leadership and academic skills.  I congratulate these indivdiuals on their nomination and look forward to their success as they continue to represent our state well into the future.” 

Each year, U.S. Senators and Representatives make nominations to four of the service academies.  The academies then select from the students nominated.  Crapo made nominations to the U.S. Military Academy (West Point), the U.S. Naval Academy, the U.S. Air Force Academy and the Merchant Marine Academy.  To qualify for a nomination, 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.
