Sure! If you're looking for private colleges that also have a military emphasis embedded in their curriculum and traditions, here are a few you might consider:

1. The Citadel, The Military College of South Carolina: Located in Charleston, South Carolina, The Citadel is renowned for its Corps of Cadets program that combines a rigorous military lifestyle with a high-quality education. Besides the Corps of Cadets, they also offer civilian programs.

2. Norwich University: Based in Northfield, Vermont, Norwich University is the oldest private military college in the US. It offers both civilian and cadet lifestyles for its students.

3. Virginia Military Institute (VMI): Located in Lexington, Virginia, VMI offers a strong undergraduate education along with military training. VMI's core curriculum combines engineering, liberal arts, and sciences.

Remember, choosing a military college is a significant decision and involves a commitment to a certain lifestyle. Be sure you've carefully considered the requirements and expectations of these schools. It's a good idea to visit them if possible, and talk to current students or alumni to get a sense of what life there is like.
