10. South African Military Academy

The South African Military Academy operates in much the same style as many US-based military academies, and offers training to cadets looking to subsequently serve in the South African Army, Air Force, Navy, and Military Health Service, the four arms of the South African National Defense Force.  The academy accepts just 300 cadets each year, all of whom must prove their qualifications in the branch of the armed services in which they hope to serve upon graduating from the academy.
