Admissions

Be stubborn, and refuse to give up. Especially for those of you looking at the Corps. It's tough and there are many mental games played, but if you manage to make it through all of the challenges, the feeling of accomplishment is the greatest thing this school has given me so far. Work hard an you'll go far.

Learn what the Corp is BEFORE you get here, and make sure you check the right box. Students come here for a reason, you don't pay $45,000 for partying here.

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.

If you plan on coming to this university as a member of the Corp of Cadets then do not plan on life being easy the first year. It is a big leap from being a normal student to being in the corps, but come here with strong determination. Also keep in mind our motto I Will Try

Be sure to do your research before hand. The 'Corps of Cadet' program can be quite demanding. It is the first step before active duty Military, so don't expect the 'normal' college life.

Choose either the traditional or cadet lifestyle and be prepared to be living in a fairly remote area of the state of Vermont. There are many extra-cirricular activities to participate in which are extremely helpful in making new friends!

if you choose to come here and be a part of the corps, be fully committed. go in with the mentality that you will not quit, not back down, and you'll do great.

I have only done an overnight stay here at Norwich University. I must say that you have to have a certain mind set just to survive here. I highly recommend that you do an overnight stay to see what life is like here first hand. I have never seen anything like it. To keep it short and sweet you will either fall in love with it or you will learn to hate every single second you stay there. (Corps of Cadets). Also, ask all of the questions you can think of.

Get your finances set asap! It's much easier to deal with issues when you're not in a time crunch!
