Summary: The centerpiece of NMMI is the Corps of Cadets, comprised of male and female students. The cadets themselves hold the responsibility of leading units within the Corps. This focus on leadership development sets New Mexico Military Institute apart from other educational institutions, public and private, and allows NMMI cadets to grow physically, mentally, emotionally and ethically.

The NMMI education revolves around the Honor Code, adopted in 1921 by a unanimous Corps vote, which states "A cadet will not lie, cheat or steal, nor tolerate those who do." The Honor Code is administered and enforced by each member of the Corps of Cadets and through the Cadet Honor Board.
