I was at The Citadel a little bit before I transferred to Kennesaw State. It is pretty tough. If you have nothing else to do with your life and you want to go in the military (and can take yelling and working out 247 while balancing your academics), this is the place to go. No one enjoys going here but everyone enjoys graduating from here.
