I don't think you could go wrong at any of the SMC's. Has your daughter considered TAMU?
http://corps.tamu.edu/ . Texas A&M does not have a criminal justice major. It does, however, have a great deal to offer in terms of size, types of majors, national and international stature, etc. However North Georgia or VMI are smaller and students, particularly first and second year students, probably have a greater chance of interaction with faculty. Financing college is also an issue. Out of state students who join the Corps of Cadets at TAMU get in-state tuition. Our daughter, an out of stater, just finished her first year at TAMU and is now studying in Tunisia.
I haven't served in the military so you should consider my comments in that context. Much as with law school, to be successful in law enforcement you don't have to major in criminal justice. Of course, it doesn't hurt, but it certainly isn't required - and indeed I did not. I have, however, served as a police officer in Texas and New Mexico, taught at the Texas Department of Public Safety Academy, taught classes to the FBI, DEA, Homeland Security Investigations (formerly known as Immigration and Customs Enforcement, formerly known as Customs Office of Investigations), Border Patrol, New Mexico State Police, and others. I've been a prosecutor since 1987 and done cases ranging from conspiracies involving thousands of pounds of cocaine to deer homicide (poaching on a federal wildlife enclave) and from the export of national security information and training (stealing the Army Special Forces classified tactics, techniques, and procedures utilized in the Special Forces Advanced Reconnaissance, Target Analysis, and Exploitation Techniques Course [SFARTECT] to Turtle Excluder Device (TEDS) cases or starting fires on federal parks and forests. I've worked with federal, state, county, local, and tribal officers. One FBI agent had a doctorate from MIT in aeronautical engineering and some officers, well, they didn't. The point being, if your daughter finds an institution she is comfortable with, she'll do fine in law enforcement - and I suspect, in the military.
Best of luck.
