INFORMATION MEETING FOR APPLYING TO MILITARY ACADEMIES The offices of Senator Joe Donnelly will each be hosting an Information Night for students, parents, guidance counselors, teachers and administrators who are interested in learning about the steps involved in applying to one our country’s great Military Academies. The event will focus on the requirements necessary to apply for a nomination from Senator Donnelly, as well as basic information about each Academy: Air Force, Military, Naval, Coast Guard and Merchant Marine. These institutions are highly competitive and while their standards are very demanding, they provide an excellent education to those willing to make the effort. It is never too early to encourage underclassmen to learn more about the options available. I hope you’ll take a few minutes to review them. If you have questions, please feel free to contact Senator Donnelly’s Military Academy Specialist, Teresa Petree at [email protected], or at 317-226-5555. Meeting TBA held at the State Office, 10 W.
