Riverside Military Academy (RMA) is a private military boarding school in Gainesville, Georgia for boys, grades 7-12. The 206 acre campus is at the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains.

RMA was first chartered in 1906 and classes began 1908. For a time the school was split between the Georgia campus and a winter campus in Florida, but the Florida campus was sold during WW2.

About 400 students are enrolled at Riverside Military Academy and students come from over 25 states and 15 countries. Tuition for RMA is quite expensive.

Boarding students can expect to pay about $28,000 annually and about $5,000 more on top of that for international students. Students not wishing to board will save over $10,000 annually.
