WASHINGTON, DC – Today, Congressman Bryan Steil (WI-01) announced the nomination of 15 high school students from Wisconsin’s First Congressional District for appointments to attend U.S. Service Academies.
“Each year it is an honor to nominate Wisconsin students to serve our nation at a U.S. Service Academy. The nomination process recognizes the character, leadership, and academic achievements of Wisconsin high school students eager to serve our country, and I am proud to nominate 15 students to our nation’s service academies.”
Part of the U.S. Service Academy application process is obtaining a nomination from an authorized nominating source, such as a Member of Congress. Acceptance to the academies is highly competitive. Receiving a nomination is the important first step, however, the actual appointment to a service academy is determined by each academy itself. Appointments for Wisconsin’s First Congressional District will be announced at a later date.
