Fork Union Military Academy awards an Academic Commendation to those students who complete the grading term with at least a 4.0 grade point average (straight A's for the grading period). Students earning a grade point average of at least 3.0 (no grade less than a B) for the grading term are awarded an Academic Citation. As one of the nation's top college-preparatory schools, Fork Union Military Academy uses a more demanding grading scale than many schools, with a score of 95–100 required for an A and a score of 88–94 required for a B. Earning academic honors at Fork Union Military Academy is a mark of high academic achievement.

Since 1950, Fork Union Military Academy has followed a unique One Subject Plan curriculum. Under the One Subject Plan, instead of students taking four to six classes every day, students take just one subject at a time. The year is divided into five grading periods of about seven weeks each. Each grading period, the student takes one class, such as English or Algebra or Biology. He is with that one teacher all day, every day, for those seven weeks. In a typical school system, a teacher may be responsible for teaching as many as 80 to 150 different students every day in several different classes. At Fork Union Military Academy, a teacher has only one classroom of about ten to seventeen students each day, every day, for seven weeks. Teachers get to know students as individuals, and students get to concentrate fully on each subject. This is believed to be one of the key factors in Fork Union Military Academy achieving a 100% college acceptance rate for seniors, and maintaining a sizable honor roll of students earning academic honors each grading period.
