[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As PP said, all states have the same number of nominations, so assuming enough students ask, MD VA and DC would all nominate the same number. When I applied to West Point, I got nominations from both senators and my congressman.[/quote] So in terms of numbers, is it right that someone from a small state like MD (or non-state like DC) would stand a better chance, numerically, of getting a nomination than if they lived in California or NY?[/quote] Numerically you have a better chance of getting a Senatorial nomination, since every state has 2 Senators regardless of population. Each Congressional district has roughly the same population so it makes no difference whether you live in the 4th district of Maryland or the 38th district of California in terms of sheer numbers. It might be the case that the competition is tougher in particular districts based on the level of interest in that area in attending the academies, though.[/quote]
