to be quite honest when i went here for the scholarship competition i was blown away not only by the campus but by the corps of cadets and how the teachers taught the classes. i found it to be my dream school because of every aspect i was looking for in a school was hit. other than the price i would tell everyone to go here regardless if they're civilian or corps.
