Norwich University, the oldest private military college in the country and the birthplace of the Reserve Officers' Training Corps (ROTC), has joined the SAGE Scholars Private College & University Enrollment Consortium. Students participating in Tuition Rewards now have 28 New England college options, including four in Vermont.

Founded in 1819, Norwich (Northfield, VT) is a four-year, co-ed university where students choose either a military or civilian lifestyle. Those who rise to the mental and physical challenge of life as a cadet are rewarded with useful life skills, self-confidence and self-discipline. As the birthplace of ROTC, Norwich houses all four branches of the armed services: Army, Navy, Marines and Air Force. The structured military lifestyle, combined with rigorous academics, benefits those pursuing careers in both the military world and the private sector.

Civilian students attend one of the nation’s foremost leadership laboratories. They are drawn to Norwich by nationally-recognized academic programs immersed in integrity and structure. Civilian students also like the feel and personal attention afforded by a resource-rich, small private college.

Norwich offers 31 academic majors, 20 varsity sports and a variety of clubs and activities. More than just arming graduates with a degree, Norwich's goal is to equip alumni with the same set of values - the honor and integrity - that helped build the United States.
