When I told my friends I was considering the University of North Georgia, they were confused. “Isn't that a military school?” they asked. “Do you want to join the military?” I'm not joining the corps. But I'm not afraid of structure.
I need structure. In high school, I was easily distracted. I did well enough, but I could have done better. I need an environment that pushes me. A student review said: “UNG has rules. It's not a free-for-all. For some people, that's a relief.” That's me.
I want real-world experience. The criminal justice professors have worked in law enforcement. One reviewer said: “My professor was an FBI agent. He didn't just teach theory; he told us what it's actually like.”
I'm not joining the corps, but I respect it. A student wrote: “The cadets set a tone. The campus is serious, focused. It's not a party school. If you want to study, this is the place.”
The Dahlonega campus is beautiful. Reviews mention the “historic buildings, mountain views, and small-town feel.” I can focus there.
I'm not choosing UNG in spite of the structure. I'm choosing it because of it. I need a place that will hold me accountable, push me to be better, and connect me to people who have done what I want to do.
