Since 1842—Achieving Excellence in the Education of Principled Leaders

The Citadel has been recognized by U.S. News & World Report as the top public college in the South for institutions granting up to a master’s degree.

While the internationally renowned South Carolina Corps of Cadets is the traditional centerpiece for our college, we also operate a non-military degree and certification programs in The Citadel Graduate College and the Evening Undergraduate Studies Program, which appeal to people interested in furthering their education or careers.
