Trainee mariners of maritime colleges such as the [[Bangladesh Marine Academy]] and [[Indian Maritime University]] are also called cadets. Students at the [[United States Merchant Marine Academy]] and the preponderance of students at the Maine Maritime Academy, the [[Massachusetts Maritime Academy]], the [[California Maritime Academy]] and the [[State University of New York Maritime College]], though called cadets at their respective institutions, actually hold the rank of [[Midshipman]], [[United States Merchant Marine]] Reserve, United States Naval Reserve. Some state-sponsored military colleges, including The Citadel, Virginia Military Institute (VMI) and private military colleges like [[Norwich University]], refer to their students as cadets, or have lists of corps of cadets.
