Overall a subpar experience during my time at VFMA. The school is riddled with pointless rules and cultivates a culture of rudeness and disrespect among students towards each other and the adults in charge. The alumni network is pretty solid and certain adults and cadets truly do seem to care about the success of students and the school but overall fail to outweigh the cons of attending VFMA.

What I like about Vallet Fore is the people. They're well involved in my life. The teachers are amazing, their main focus is to help you succeed in your academics. If you need help they would always have time to help you one on one. Overall Valley Forge is an amazing school and the people there are great.

Terrible, terrible school, for the school, to pay too much price, when I was hurt by the same age students drowned. OIC (campus security) is always looking for trainees. Let's sit in a full suit and try to argue with the students as they go through third chaos and order delivery. Especially a little brother. Personally, I do not like the school system.

My son’s experience, after three years, continues to mold him in a fine young man with a bright future. Upon his visit in 2018, he chose the school because of the small class sizes ( under 10), family feel, faculty and staff feel, and opportunities. Our experience has not been perfect, just like our...

Lies, Lies and more Lies! This is the worse decision I could have made for my sons! No parent should have to feel this way. You think that you doing what is in the best interest of your children and it turns out to be your worst nightmare. The turnover in administration is appalling! What a waste of...
