Academic Excellence

At West Point, a Cadet is far more than a mere face in the crowd. Small classes– usually 12 to 18 cadets — assure individual participation and individual attention. Cadets are expected to participate daily and are evaluated frequently. If unsure of the material taught on any given day, or if one desires to move beyond the material, extra one-on-one instruction is available. The present curriculum reflects more than 195 years of evolutionary change both in the military profession and in higher education. Today’s balanced offering of courses in the arts and sciences leads to a Bachelor of Science degree and builds a foundation for continuing education and professional development. Approximately 80% of West Point graduates who remain in the Army beyond their initial commitment do attend graduate school, usually funded by the Army.
