It is a private military academy - think West Point, but a private school. Students are basically officially ROTC, but unlike ROTC at a normal university, it’s a full time thing with both daily and formal uniforms, marches, etc.
Like West Point, Citadel grads form an old school ties network in the military.
One movie about the school is Lords of Discipline.
