Role of the Cadet

The cadet seeks assistance from the faculty advisor and other VMI personnel to explore and clarify academic, career and life goals.  The cadet develops a plan to accomplish objectives in each area.  The cadet takes advantage of learning opportunities on and off Post.  The cadet becomes increasingly self-sufficient over the four year process by satisfying year-specific responsibilities.  The cadet remembers that faculty advisors will endeavor to provide all reasonable assistance for their education, but that degree completion and program monitoring are the cadet’s primary responsibility.

Cadets Should:

• Fulfill class specific Cadet Responsibilities.
• Contact their advisor immediately if they begin to have difficulties.
• Be aware that degree completion is the responsibility of the cadet.
• Know the role of their academic advisor
