Confusion about West Point's Military Branch

Hey folks, some confusion here. So, I'm really interested in attending the United States Military Academy, popularly known as West Point, but I've realized I'm not exactly sure which branch of the military it's a part of. Could someone clear up this confusion for me? Thank you in advance!
