New Mexico Military Institute (NMMI), located in Roswell, New Mexico,
is the only state-supported, co-educational, military boarding school
in the United States. NMMI offers a college preparatory, four-year high
school and a two-year junior college.
One of only six military junior colleges in the U.S., New Mexico
Military Institute’s organization and architecture is based on Virginia
Military Institute. The campus encompasses 40 acres of land, including
an 18-hole golf course.
Students at NMMI are referred to as “cadets” and the school averages
975 cadets, 95 percent of whom go on to four-year universities. At any
time, cadets represent almost every state in the U.S. and a dozen
foreign countries.
The Corps of Cadets at New Mexico Military Institute has its own
chain of command, responsible to the Commandant of Cadets and his staff.
All cadets live under an honor system and are expected to meet the
highest values of personal integrity. The honor code states that no
cadet will “Lie, Cheat or Steal or Tolerate Those Who Do.” Cadets are
required to defend and enforce the honor system.
More than one-third of the college students are seeking an Army
Commission. Annually, via a two-year Early Commissioning Program (ECP),
the school commissions about 35 cadets as US Army 2nd Lieutenants.
New Mexico Military Institute offers an all-inclusive liberal arts
curriculum. An Associate in Arts degree requires sixty-eight hours of
coursework. A cadet may choose to concentrate in a particular area while
pursuing an Associate of Arts degree.
Areas of concentration include:
- Humanities
- Math and science
- Social sciences/business
- Physical education/recreation
