If a student needs help in a particular area, he or she is assigned a peer tutor from The Corps. In addition, all students requiring academic assistance or those who are working to improve time management and general studying skills can find support through the professional staff at the campus Learning Support Center. Our faculty is hired to teach, not conduct research or publish articles. Because Norwich does not offer masters degrees for our traditional students, our undergraduate students will not find their classes being taught by teaching assistants. A feeling of community prevails.
Faculty members know each student individually and are readily available to provide assistance.
Only 50 percent of our cadets go on to serve in active duty or the reserves of the armed forces. The remainder pursue graduate degrees or enter business, industry or public service. Norwich is nestled in the heart of Vermont's Green Mountains. Because of its country setting, one does not find many clubs or bars in Northfield, thus eliminating one of the security issues facing institutions located in or close to cities. Students can feel secure walking on campus at night, going to the library, or returning from a workout at the gym.
