I've been reading reviews of the University of North Georgia, and the military focus comes up constantly. Some students love it. Some find it stifling.

The structure is a pro for many. One student wrote: “The military environment teaches discipline. I'm more focused here than I would be at a regular school.” Another said: “The cadets are impressive. They're serious about their training, and it sets a tone for the whole campus.”

It's not for everyone. A reviewer said: “If you're not in the corps, you might feel out of place. There's a hierarchy here that not everyone wants.” Another said: “It's not a party school. If that's what you want, go elsewhere.”

For criminal justice, it seems like an advantage. One student said: “The professors have law enforcement experience. They're not just academics. And the connections to state and federal agencies are real.”

I'm not planning to join the military, but I'm drawn to the structure. I want professors who have worked in the field. I want connections. Maybe the military focus isn't a con; it's a feature.

I think your last line is exactly right. For some people the military focus is a con. For others it's the whole point. If you're drawn to structure and want professors who've actually worked in criminal justice, UNG makes sense. Just know that "not a party school" means it's quiet on weekends. That's either a feature or a bug depending on what you want. Sounds like feature for you.
