I have three reason why this school is better than west point1)this school offers ROTC at all four service branches of the armed force2)This school doesn’t require a 5 year service after graduation which is perfect for people who wanna experience military training but can’t serve abroad 3)Plenty Notable Citadel Alumni who is envolved in military attain the rank of Lt general which is below the rank of four star general.I say this because four star general have the lowest attainable percentage during non war time.Like if agree
What do the Midshipmen and Cadets at the Service Academies have in common with the VMI and Citadel cadets? Nothing, the service academy folks GOT their first choice.
@TideFan Yankee My Citadel Graduates have employed West Point Graduates for years. They are very good followers. My boy, who is a VP at a Fortune 50 Company, also played Football at The Citadel. He has 8 West Point Engineers who report to him ... out of 300 reports. The Citadel is not to be considered less than the Service Academies. They just have Federal Finding. WE don't. And We spanked 2 of the 3 in Football before they dropped us from their schedules. F.A.C.T.S. I played on those teams
@@marshallposey2063 We are a State school, founded on a different principle than West Point, but we produce officers just as effective. My Cadre Corporal is, now, an Air Force Major General. We also fired the FIRST shot of the American Civil War and have 8 Battle Streamers on our Colors for when the College was engaged as its own separate unit. West Point never did that. And ours is the ONLY American Military Band & Pipes to be invited to the Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo (4 times).....Regimental Band Class of 1984.
This video came out a bit after my overnight visit here. Good video for tricking people. I would have felt safer at Virginia Tech during that shooting a few years back than this joke of a school.
I am glad we are not for everyone. That is what sets us apart. Shon, run back to mommy Mr. poopy pants. Grow a friggin pair. Unfortunately, you don't realize YOU are the joke.
nitbull liondog I thought what set you guys apart from most people was an unwillingness to live up to societal norms while portraying yourselves to be above petty and immoral behavior whilst still participating in it secretively. It doesn't take a coward to stand up to corruption. And it sure as hell doesn't take anyone who associates with the Citadel much balls to be a bitch.
God bless The Citadel and all of the cadets!!! We are so proud of you! 🇺🇸🙏🏻📚🎓
I was a Proud Senior Private! Rgt Band 1984.
I'm getting ready to submit my Citadel application,Wish me luck!
Im young but am so excited to go the citadel

Are you going to go down for a visit early or go to the CSI summer class? Assuming you don’t live close by.
And nobody else will understand 🇺🇸
do they offer pre med course work?
Yes, it's biology with a pre-med track.
What do VMI and Citadel cadets have in common?
They all applied to VMI.
What do the Midshipmen and Cadets at the Service Academies have in common with the VMI and Citadel cadets?
Nothing, the service academy folks GOT their first choice.
Citadel alumnus here. The Citadel was my first and only choice. I never applied to a service academy nor VMI.

F.A.C.T.S.
I played on those teams
This is my dream college
Did someone hurt your feelings?
What is the cost? Per year?
Like 54K a year
I'm gonna go through the Army, so they'll help me pay for it... Look into your options, don't give up just because of the big cost,
play military.
This is a school, just like VMI is a colletion of people who could not get into either The Navl Acadamy or West Point.
West Point is The Citadel of the North. Regimental Band, Class of 1984 - The Citadel. I WEAR the RING!
jason60chev not even close to West Point.

@@marshallposey2063 Are you, sir a graduate of West Point?
Thad gram: What a jealous, shallow, person you are!
At least be creative when trying to insult someone.
Just join the military.

As the LEGEND Lt. Col. Dick used to say, "Son, this place isn't for everyone...."
Who's he a legend to? Kids basking in archaic tradition don't need legends. They need common sense.

If you've gone to the school it makes sense.
