Review of Virginia Military Institute

from Decatur, GA

Will learn a lot

There's not many degrees to choose from (15ish), but the keydets and cadre referred to it as the toughest education in America.

Will enjoy being here

Cannot wait. It's going to be hard, but you just have to embrace the suck.

Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?

Out of state is expensive, but I'm going for the ROTC and NROTC scholarships.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

Make sure you're squared away before going here. The intensity level is off the charts similar to a service academy, so knowing how to drill, being in good shape give you a huge advantage going in.

Which types of students will excel at your college?

Highschoolers interested in the military or bettering themselves in general. The unlocked room policy is incredible, the 4th I was staying with introduced me to all of his BR's all over the barracks. We would just walk in and it was completely normal. GO KEYDETS!
