Oregon — Academy Nomination Guide
You have 2 Senators + 6 House Representatives with authority to nominate you to a service academy. Apply to all three of yours. Different essays, different panels, different deadlines — but multiple nominations only help.
The math for Oregon
Oregon sends a maximum of 120 current cadets to USMA, USNA, and USAFA combined (8 MOCs × 5 enrolled per MOC × 3 academies). Open vacancies per year: roughly 36 across the three academies. That's the cap — your actual odds depend on applicant pool size in your specific district and Senate seat.
