Attention Verona High School seniors: The deadline for submitting applications to the office of Rep. Rodney Frelinghuysen for service academy nominations is 5 p.m. on Monday, October 15.
That means that if you want to attend the United States Military Academy (West Point), the United States Naval Academy, the United States Air Force Academy, the United States Coast Guard Academy or the United States Merchant Marine Academy, you need to have a conversation with your guidance counselor now. The last VHS student to be selected for a service academy nomination was Luke Sniatkowski, Class of 2013.
The Congressional Nomination Application for each of the service academies is posted on Frelinghuysen’s website; Frelinghuysen is the congressman for the 11th district, which includes Verona. His website also has a service academy application packet and answers to frequently asked questions.
You can reach Frelinghuysen’s Morristown Office at 973-984-0711.
