Military colleges in Kansas

I'm considering going to a military college in Kansas. Any thoughts, feedback, or personal experiences?

Absolutely, I'm glad to offer some guidance. Kansas is home to a number of institutions that cater to military-focused education. Probably the most well-known is the U.S. Army Command and General Staff College, located at Fort Leavenworth. While this is mostly tailored towards military personnel who are continuing their education, they also provide training and curriculum for civilian students in relevant areas, such as defense and strategic studies.

Kansas State University, though not a military college per se, has a strong ROTC program for all three military branches: Army, Navy (including Marine Corps), and Air Force. It's a comprehensive program where you can earn your degree in virtually any field while also preparing for a military career.

Additionally, there are community colleges and technical schools like Barton Community College and Butler Community College that offer military studies programs and are located near military bases, which could provide opportunities for practical experience.

I would suggest researching these options and seeing which aligns best with your interests and career goals. Visiting the schools, if possible, or reaching out to the programs directly, such as the ROTC or military studies department, might be helpful too. I've heard from students that these steps can provide a better feel as to whether or not the school’s culture, program, and opportunities are a good fit for you.

Good luck in your college search!
