Most non-Starfleet individuals make the mistake of assuming that Starfleet Academy has only one campus: Earth. This is a widely held misconception on the part of the general population of the Federation mostly due to how well publicized the Academy on Earth is. The Academy, however, is actually a university of sorts, in that it has many campuses, a graduate school, and offers multiple levels of achievement akin to bachelor, masters, and doctorate degrees. It would be impractical for all students who desire to be trained as Starfleet officers to travel to Earth, considering the enormous size of the Federation. Thus, many Starbases, and member worlds have satellite campuses that range from small (on bases), to very large (like Betazed's). | Most non-Starfleet individuals make the mistake of assuming that Starfleet Academy has only one campus: Earth.
