International Programs

Preparing young men and women for successful service in an increasingly international and interdependent world community, by broadening their global perspectives and increasing their cultural awareness, is an inherent component of the Virginia Military Institute’s mission of educating citizen-soldiers.  The VMI Office of International Programs strives to provide cadets top-quality opportunities for international education and experiences through study abroad, military exchanges, educational travel, internships, and international academic and cultural events on Post, throughout the nation and around the world.  Additionally, we provide support services to international cadets, both four-year VMI cadets and military exchange cadets, to include advising on issues related to visa status, as well as helping international cadets adjust to US and VMI cultures.  For more information, please contact the Office of International Programs in the Old Hospital, Room 101.
