The Right Fit

"Norwich has had a profound impact on my personal and professional life. It gave me the confidence to pursue goals that once felt out of reach, like earning my degree while serving full-time in the Coast Guard and preparing for Officer Candidate School. I never felt like just a number — I felt seen, supported, and empowered every step of the way."
- Emily Max, Bachelor of Science in National Security Studies '25

The prestige and heritage of Norwich stood out. Plus, having a vast majority of its professors either being active duty or retired military truly helps those who are still in the military.
