The classes are small and the teachers have enough time to help out a student when needed. Staff and teachers are friendly, helpful and approachable. If your in the Corps then you will learn a lot from your cadre(junior upperclassmen) and company staff.
Do you enjoy the experience at your school?
Being a freshman in the Corps is hard, but it is worth it. You do a lot of fun things as a freshman, even in the corps.You meet a lot of people from different states and countries. There are exchange students from other military academies in different countries. Last semester there were German military exchange students and this semester Chinese military students.
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
Norwich estimated that I would receive a state grant of about $6,000. I only received $750. Norwich covered the difference and I did not have to take out another loan or pay out of pocket. There are a lot of work study and non work study jobs available to help students. I currently work sporting events on campus. Its fun, and if your a Rook it gets you out of the barracks.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
Visit, especially if you are interested in the Corps of Cadets. Be prepared to take a lot of notes and sit through a lot of power point presentations, specially in engineering and ROTC classes. If you plan on doing he Corps, come physically fit enough to pass the Army PT test.
Which types of students will excel at your college?
Students who want to commission in the military or succeed in the corporate world. Norwich has a great reputation, and a very big alumni community. There are a ton of opportunities, both home and abroad for Norwich students.
