You May Be Wondering...
“It’s a leadership laboratory of life-defining moments where lasting bonds of friendship will be formed, and lessons learned will endure forever.”
— Gary, Norwich Parent and Alum
The Norwich experience is like no other. We educate and develop leaders for the twenty-first century, combining our rich history with innovative learning experiences to prepare citizens and citizen-soldiers to serve our nation and the world.
Do you need to be a cadet or in the ROTC?“At Norwich, there is a big emphasis on service. Volunteering builds character while helping the community and building relations and connections. Some of my favorite memories are from freshman year when my rook family would...spend time helping the community in different ways.”
