Generally, candidates who are high school juniors and will be seniors the following school year, or who have already graduated, are eligible to apply.

The deadline for application is October 1; applicants will be scheduled for an interview by early November. Academies will begin to notify candidates of their admission status in February, and all offers of appointment are generally sent out by May.
