Just shouting out, Congrats to the Rook Class of 2014, Officially Recognized into the Corps.
As a retired Army Master Sergeant I have been at Norwich for 14-years now. I have personally watched the university grow and become one of the best academic institutions in the Northeast. While other private colleges are struggling to make numbers Norwich has experience record enrollments for the past 4-years. Our Naval ROTC program is large with many members in the Marine Corps option. Currently, we have around two dozen MECEP (Marine Enlisted Commissioning Education Program) NCO's who attend the university and assist with training the Cadets. My suggestion is you come for a visit when able...as "fit" is the most important option. As for whether or not we can prepare you for a military career...read our latest copy of The Record for alumni:

Just a quick question concerning Norwich University. What percentage of the students at Norwich are traditional students? or students not in the Corps of Cadets?
Believe it or not, the number of grad-student alums currently exceeds the number of undergraduate alums.
of which I think about 45% to 50% is Corp of Cadets. This does not include Grad school maybe another 1,000. Sleeply little town in beautiful Vermont. 8 miles to Amtrak Station and State Capital. One hour to Burlington Airport.
Do you mean there are more grad-student alums than all of the undergrad-student alums going all the way back to 1819? If in fact that is the case it is an amazing statistic. I don't remember any grad students thirty years ago so there has been a huge surge in the graduate program.
Currently it is 2/3 Corps and 1/3 Civilian Students. This year we opened with just over 1400 in The Corps of Cadets and 700+ Civilian Students. We recently built a really nice dorm for the students and for the most part they have moved off the Upper Parade ground. Plans are in the works for building another dorm in the next couple of years.Just a quick question concerning Norwich University.
