Cleaning supplies should be 409 or Lysol type spray that can remove dirt and dust from surfaces. The list specifies other cleaning items.

The packing list is out, it’s here: https://home.norwich.edu/info-for/fall-2024-incoming-students We got ipad accessories for generation 7/8/9. Not sure which one they’re actually giving out this year… maybe someone else knows?

Thank you!

My son’s scholarship should be activated this fall (as long as all goes well) at NU. Do I pay tuition until it comes through?

Just chiming in because I’ve talked to others about this. The SMCs are tough schools. Easy to get into, hard to stay in and complete. They give kids a chance, but many drop and end up enlisting or switching to the civilian side. It’s supposed to be a challenge and something that’s earned. I was...

I do know West Point was at Norwich last year recruiting and there are kids prepping there for the SAs.

I know I chime in whenever Norwich is mentioned and it is only because so many on here encouraged my DS to try it and it’s been a great year for him and his rook buddies. We didn’t know much about the school before asking here and visiting, but it’s been an amazing year of challenge and growth...

Great post! We really didn’t know much about the SMCs before our son started looking into colleges. Great snapshot here and a good way to start looking into them for the up and coming kids. I hope all of the SMCs continue to attract great kids to continue their traditions.

Love the video they put out today! Sounds like a lot of positive vibes around this move.

I’ll try to answer your questions, but hope others will chime in too! Last year my son got his iPad (Norwich provided it and it was preloaded with the apps) on Rook Arrival day when he picked up his other general issue gear. We bought him a keyboard and protective case to go with it. Someone in...

Norwich will guide you on SMP options, minuteman etc within the first few months of rookdom. My son has friends that are now in those programs and others competing for campus based scholarships as freshmen. He’s also in the honors program if you have any questions about it. Norwich told my son...

Norwich being in Vermont is special. It’s a beautiful campus in a state like no other. The history of the place is amazing. Go visit and see what it’s all about.

Laundry in the barracks has been great. During rookdom they helped each other out and brought finished loads up to each other etc…

Norwich covered all of my kid’s first year with his 3year AROTC scholarship. They’re known for giving a lot of aid. Rolling admissions too. All we paid for was uniforms and books. Books are now included in tuition so that went to zero second semester. It’s been a great deal for us and a great...

Just here to say good luck to all of you/your kids on this last board!! My DS received his last year on the 3rd board so we know the feeling… Stay positive and definitely plan to join as a programmer if it doesn’t come now. Hard work will be rewarded!!

Just circling back after talking to DS, he seconds everything said by Wildflower222! No hazing, cadre care a ton about each one of them and although rookdom was tough at times they have had a ton of fun. He said PT was tough at the start for him but he improved quickly with lots of reps. I...

My kid is going to be home for spring break so I can get him to answer your question. He was a rook this year so it’s all fresh in his mind :) I know from his phone calls there was running… he ran a fair amount leading up to rook arrival and did tons of push ups/sit ups. I do know they now do...

My son was a rook this year and was home for a week for Thanksgiving. Break was 11/18-11/25. I would definitely plan on getting him home for it. That week will be a great chance for him to get away and reset. If you need any advice on travel let me know. We also have some Facebook groups that...

To confirm what you said, Norwich covered my son’s first year since he was awarded a 3 year AROTC national scholarship. His entire first year to include room and board has been covered by scholarships/grants. We’ve paid for uniforms only. I encourage OP and any others that have an interest in an...
