Greetings from Senator Capito’s office! Last year, approx. 19 students attending or who have attended schools in Berkeley, Brooke, Cabell, Hardy, Harrison, Jefferson, Kanawha, Lincoln, Marion, Mercer, Monongalia, Monroe, Ohio, and Putnam county received appointments to United States Service Academies and Preparatory Schools and began their journeys this summer. WV students graduated from U.S. Service Academies in 2023 and are moving forward to wonderful careers in various fields. Our WV students are more than capable of meeting the challenge of completing these prestigious institutions, but they must be aware of these opportunities in order to take advantage of them. The key to a student’s success (besides academic, physical, and extracurricular achievements) is being informed about potential opportunities at these educational institutions and starting the information gathering process as early as possible. An appointment to a U.S. Service Academy is a fully funded education opportunity valued from $240,000 to more than $400,000. We are writing to request that you spread the word to your students that Academy Day 2023 will be held for any and all students, parents and school officials interested in learning more about U.S. service academies (Air Force, Coast Guard, Merchant Marines, Military/West Point, Naval). We will also have representatives from local ROTC programs on hand to discuss ROTC scholarship opportunities. Mock interviews will be offered and a representative from the Dept. of Defense’s Medical Examination Review Board will join us on Saturday, September 23, 2023 and Sunday, September 24, 2023. Academy Day is an opportunity for students, parents, and school officials to ask questions and obtain information regarding the U.S. Air Force Academy, U.S. Coast Guard Academy, U.S. Merchant Marine Academy, U.S. Military Academy and the U.S. Naval Academy as well as the ROTC scholarship process. No Registration Required. Students who want to attend a prestigious U.S. Service Academy or ROTC program are generally more successful when they begin planning courses and extracurricular activities early in their academic career. Please attend and encourage middle and high school aged students and parents to attend.

My office will also address the nomination process. I have attached a flyer regarding Academy Day 2023 that you are welcome to forward, print, post (Facebook, Schoology, etc), and/or distribute. Additionally, a packet was mailed or dropped off to school principals and counselors containing flyers to post and distribute. Feel free to contact me with any questions.
