To enroll at the New Mexico Military Institute (NMMI), applicants must meet specific eligibility criteria. Candidates must be at least 14 years old for the high school program or 17 for the junior college program, with no upper age limit for the latter. A completed application, academic transcripts, and standardized test scores (SAT/ACT) are required.
Physical fitness standards must be met, including passing a medical examination. International students need proof of English proficiency (TOEFL/IELTS). Letters of recommendation and an interview may also be required. NMMI prioritizes leadership potential, academic achievement, and character in its selection process.
