2026 State Nominations Thread

[Mdm26]

Has anyone heard from Senator Schumer’s office ?

Happy Thanksgiving.

Following up on a prior conversation regarding how appointments are made in NY. I thought this was an interesting article. It’s dated but I think it provides some good insight into the process some MOC’s use.

I have completed Interviews with two of my three options, I am just wondering about the Nomination release timeline.

Google your MOC‘s prior years press releases for service academies. If they publish, generally its around the same time and prior years will give you an idea. Good luck!

Hi! I am just wondering what the timeline is actually like. I have read what is available on the websites for the senators and congress members, but I would like to know what people have seen in reality. Preferably from MN. Thank you so much!

DS completed senatorial interviews in MN last week. Congressional interview in December. Decisions for my eldest son with a similar timeframe were shared in January. Very organized and professionally administered experience both rounds.

Anybody hear back from the 2 Senators from Georgia yet?

HI... also from MN, my DS had Senator interviews on November 20th, and Representative interviews will be Dec. 11th for him. Both Senator interviews were completed by SA alum.

Not knowing which District, that seems right. Klobuchar and Smith announce their noms very close to the last day (Jan 31, I think).

That's a little concerning, I personally couldn't secure the Gillibrand interview, so news from Schumer's would be a huge relief for me.

DS got his nomination from MOC in Indiana for USMA, USNA, and USAFA. We are really thrilled! This has been a LONG ride! Keeping hopeful.

I have an interview with Warnock on Saturday

 

[akakdkfkrllwlwdc]

For all NY'ers, it seems Gillibrand and Schumer's offices both sent out another round/first round respectively of interview requests.

Are you saying that you or yours received an invitation from Schumer ?

 

[luqui03]

Nothing from MD yet. My DS had three interviews in the past week and he will have two more this week (Sen. Cardin and Congressman Sarbanes). Good luck to all of us waiting hehe

Can confirm. Received interviews for Schumer today

 

[2026]

Other than my son’s BGO who has been in that position for many years didn’t know Schumer even gave interviews upstate. He was under the impression they split the state in two.

Soooo…..my son was very pleasantly surprised to get an interview invite today from Schumer! We are in upstate NY…….
