Norwich is a blessing in disguise. It is a secluded college far away from well everything. While to some this may suck, to nature enthusasts and even gamers its awesome. The internet is typically very good and the possibilities are endless. As a cs student, it was not hard for me to get into the weld shop or other departments. Great school.

Nice and quaint area. Food is okay but better than a lot of other places I've been. Lots of great people there.

I'm a 33 year old Commuter going back to school using the GI Bill. Norwich is a beautiful campus with the majority of the student body who are focussed and have solid goals. If you aren't pursuing a career in the Military, Govt or Law Enforcement There are many other cheaper schools you can have more fun at. Food is okay

Great school, great people, enjoying my education, which I am satisfied to say can challenge me at times. It is small and in a rural area, but I find at times that can be nice and I'm not just another number in their system. All of my professors, many people in administration, and several other faculty members know me by first name.

Disliked very thing about this school.
Overall 1
This is via online student. LIES LIES LIES. They lied to get me in the door then said no we don't offer books. You can use your degree here because it would be an asset then I got marked for doing such. The constant go from one place such as advisor bursar financal aid is a pain. Reimbursing funds three weeks in still aint happened. Bursar no calls
Overall 1.1
If you are looking for an academic education, go elsewhere. Academic excellence is, for the most part, not encouraged or valued here. There are a few good professors here, but I definitely wouldn't choose this school again.

Unless you are attending here to do life in the military this school is not for you. As a business major, I have learned almost nothing I already did not know. IF you take this degree to anywhere that is not cybersecurity or a government position they will laugh at you or ask where the college is because they have never heard of it.

If you want to be in the Corps of Cadets (one coprs, a hundred standards) and play army dress up games as well as live in the middle of nowhere, and take hundreds of stairs everywhere you go, then this is your place

Food is the worst compared to any other University, and always huge lines to the cafeteria. School is in the middle of nowhere so there is nothing to do for civilians.
Overall 1.7
This school is boring. Only thing to do is drink and it's a "dry campus"
Overall 1.8
The food is terrible, it is cold and borderline inedible.

Norwich has some really messed up people in the corps, and the staff are even worse.
