Congressional Nominations + Service Academy Essays

<p>I am located in Texas and my Senators, Representative, our VP and the 3 service academies I'm looking at (USMA, USAFA, USNA) all ask 3 questions that are the virtually the same. I have an answer for all 3 and the answers are great, but I was wondering if I should send in the same 3 essays to all of them, struggle through a bunch of (crappy) back up essays and send the good, original ones to just the academies themselves (for a letter of assurance) or send them to a selected combination of my rep, senators, vp and the academies.</p>

<p>A little about me:</p>

<p>African American male and I was accepted into all 3 SLS programs but I could only attend USMA for financial and parental reasons (they don't help out with anything concering college unless it makes them look good). I did pretty decent on the CFA at USMA and I got a 650 on crit reading + a 590 on the math with a 1800 overall on the SAT</p>

<p>send the same essays to all, but letter of assurance won’t come with 1800 SAT.
keep working hard man!</p>
