This is the form letter that westpoint provided for me:

Date(aligned right)

(aligned left)
The Honorable (senator)
(senator's address)

Dear Mr. (senator),

I desire to attend the United States Military Academy and to be commissioned in the Regular Army.  I respectfully request that I be considered as one of your nominees for the class entering West Point in the summer of (year).

The following data are furnished for your information:

Name of Applicant:

Permanent Address:

Telephone Number:

Date of Birth:

High School:

Social Security Number:

Names of Parents:

I have requested that a pre-candidate file be initiated for me at the West Point Admissions Office.

(centered)
Sincerely,






The other academies probably propose something similar.  After sending the letter you get specific information about what your senator/etc. requires.  I decided not to continue the application process after that, so that's all I know.
