This is a military school that is structured to get people into the various academies. If you do not aspire to attend other academies, you will have difficulty adjusting to the system and might even get expelled. It has its benefits and its flaws. Also, the military program is mandatory for everyone. It is not negotiable.

I did not enjoy being a part of this community because of the poor facilities (dorm and dining hall) and student body. Although I made great connections with some juniors and seniors (falcons), the other 80% of the student body was two-faced, aggressive, and careless of others' feelings. Considering the popularity of the school, the school has no choice but to admit most of the applicants, which is the cause of the issue.

It was very stressful. Waking up very early for formation and cleaning your room. The sports were terrible. I would not go there again.

My child was at RMA for her freshman year. During that time, she was at the mercy of boys that bullied her and even though she told the school counselor and I told not only the Dean of Academic and also General Wesley, nothing was done. This ended in an almost catastrophic event and my daughter is n...

I used to attend RMA, and now I am in college. As a female my first years were challenging at RMA, the uniform and the amount of boys overwhelmed me; however, I learned how to not only deal with being a woman in a man's world, but I learned how to work with boys. I feel it was an important skill I d...
