Activity Fees: MMA offers a wide range of activities, varsity sports and intramural sports that are provided in the fee structure shown above. Cadets can also participate in optional activities which may require additional charges. Ask your Admissions Counselor for a complete list.
Spending Allowance: Parents are encouraged to provide a weekly spending allowance to cadets. We recommend $25 per week, and you are welcome to increase or reduce these amounts. The MMA Accounting Office will itemize spending allowance on the initial billing and the November billing. Parents have the option to advance funds for deposit at the Academy. The spending allowance is distributed weekly.
English as a Second Language Summer Camp: All new international students applying, whose primary language is not English, will be required to take a TOEFL JUNIOR, or TOEFL exam prior to acceptance with the purpose of determining the level of English proficiency of incoming students. This examination can be a deciding factor for acceptance, and will also determine if ESL Camp will be required. Results will be determined by the Dean of Academics and the International Relations Coordinator.
