Pabna Cadet College

Pabna Cadet College (Bengali: পাবনা ক্যাডেট কলেজ), is a residential military high school, partly financed by the Bangladesh Army, located at Jalalpur, east of Pabna town, Bangladesh.

[3][4] Cadet colleges were designed to be feeder schools for the officer academies of the armed forces, but nowadays, they are no longer reserved for students planning to pursue a career in the military.

[5] The cadet college is located on 30 acres (12 ha) on the north side of the Dhaka-Pabna highway at the village of Jalalpur in Pabna Sadar Upazila, about 10 kilometres (6.2 mi) east of Pabna.

[2] Within the campus are a three-storey academic block, student housing, a dining hall and adjacent canteen, and Bir Sreshtha Nur Muhammad Hospital, named after Bir Sreshtho Lance Naik Nur Mohammad Sheikh.

[6][7] The Bangladesh Army provides some of the funding for cadet colleges, administers them, and runs them on a military model.
