NOTE: The Virginia Military Institute Board of Visitors is expected to consider rates for tuition and mandatory fees for the 2025-2026 academic year at its meeting on Saturday, May 3, 2025.

  • For both in-state and out-of-state cadets, the board will consider tuition increases ranging from 0% to 3%.

  • The board will consider mandatory fee increases, which support a mix of academic and non-academic support services, between 0% and 3% for all cadets.

Revenue generated from tuition and fee increases, in combination with other revenues and reallocated funds, will likely be used to address personnel costs, including the Institute’s share of state mandated salary, fringe benefit, and health insurance changes, enhancements to academic programs, and implementation of strategic initiatives.

§ 23.1-307 (D) of the Code of Virginia requires that 30 days prior to approval of each year’s tuition and mandatory fees, the Board of Visitors announce the range of increases under consideration and the proposed use of any incremental revenue.
