It changes every year. You can only find out by reading your letter/calling them.

Which system do each of the following use in nominations (ie. designating principal vs. competitive selection):
Sen. Isakson-
Sen. Chambliss-
Con. Linder-
Thanks!
Please don't take any offense to what I am going to say. But does it really matter from your standpoint? There is no way you can change it and if you are trying to find which system is more benefitial towards you, that still won't help you. Either way, work just as hard and do your best. You will only find out if and when you receive a nomination from that source. MOCs do change and policies do too, so you can only predict what they will use next year. Best of Luck!

I'd make a concerted effort to attend academy day this spring. Last year it was a N Ga college. The two senators and several of the congressman had aides there that could answer this question.
Last year all Svc academies were there with reps, ALO's & cadets along with the congressional aides. Plus if you are serious about a military associated degree N GA is an option to examine as well.
It's well worth the drive.
That said, I agree with the many posts, the nomination process is not in your control, you can't predict the odds. Just focus on what you can control: Academics, Athletics, Extracurricular. You own and can influence these!
We all want to understand, but as many have said, it largely does not change what you need to do!
