The North Carolina Military Institute was an antebellum state-supported military school in Charlotte, North Carolina. It closed at the beginning of the American Civil War, when Governor John W. Ellis ordered the corps of cadets to duty as drill masters in Raleigh. Many of whom later enlisted in the 1st North Carolina Volunteers and served under Colonel Daniel H. Hill, the former superintendent.
