[quote=Anonymous]There are some misstatements or misunderstandings on nominations.
Each senator and each congressman can make 10 nominations per year.
Each moc can have 5 nominated students at an academy at any given time.
You can not get a moc nom from outside your district.
A small state with one rep and two senators can nominate 30 per academy per year and are generally less competitive
States like Maryland and Virginia with many service oriented residents are highly competitive, versus a Wyoming.
Unused noms go back to the superintendent for use from the national pool
Children of service members compete for presidential noms as well as moc noms
DC has one "moc" so ehn gets 10 noms. There are no senate noms for DC
A nom in not an appointment. It's necessary but the school still has to accept the candidate, plus pass medical and fitness standards
DC sent 3 to USMA and 2 to USNA for 13, a high number by historical standards, showing there were open in attendance slots from prior years. That says next year could be tougher than in the past (not to get a nom, but to get an appointment)

Hope this clarifies the nom questions[/quote]
