Military Academies
One option for a four-year college degree is to consider applying to a military academy. It is important to research and begin the application process early on during the junior year of high school; however, academic preparation should begin starting in the freshman year.

UNITED STATES NAVAL ACADEMY - Annapolis, MD

410-293-4361Additional Considerations:
- The education attained is a first-rate, a four-year degree from a well-respected college, paid for with a full-tuition scholarship.
- Entrance to one of the service academies requires a significant commitment, carrying a military obligation in the respective service.
- Classes, majors, sports and activities can be similar to public or private college experiences, but there is a distinct military orientation to the undergraduate experience.
- Academic preparation should begin early in a student's high school career. The application process should start during the junior year.
- Some of the academies will require a nomination, primarily by a Congressman. Most members of Congress will not process requests after October of the senior year. Qualifications include not only academics but also physical and medical qualifications.
