Ranoa Magic Academy

''This article is about the Magic School in Sharia. For the Season 2 Episode 5 Anime, see Ranoa University of Magic (Episode).''

The Ranoa Magic Academy, also known as the Ranoa University of Magic or simply Magic University, is the world's largest magic school. It is sponsored by the Magic Guilds of the Magic Triumvirate and boasts one of the largest campus areas with over 10,000 enrolled students. The school is located in the city of magic Sharia, Kingdom of Ranoa, Central Continent. People from all tribes, species, and social standings can be admitted.

Overview
The building of the Ranoa Magic Academy is made from magic-proof bricks which the Magic Guild has the monopoly on manufacturing and sales, but they're not strong enough to stand against Rudeus' magic. There are multiple magic circles around the school that have healing power close to that of a Saint-level Healer, especially in the practice building's training hall.

The entrance fee and expenses until the graduation are about 3 Asura Gold Coins.

Background


Before the Ranoa Magic Academy was built, only the Magician Guild is present in the area, where it stood as a fortress protected by the Ranoa Kingdom. An alliance called the Magic Triumvirate or the Three Magic Nations is eventually established between the neighboring nations of Ranoa, Basherant and Neris. The Triumvirate poured tremendous amount of resources into magical research. The newly built Ranoa Magic Academy, the Magician Guild and Neris Magical Implement Workshop were established together in the Magic City of Sharia and became the center of the Magic Nations despite the overlapping borders. The Ranoa Magic Academy is located in the Student District at the eastern part of the city, whereas Frau Claudia, the 56th Generational Leader of the Magician Guild, became the first principal.

Uniform
Gentlemen are provided with a School Suit, Ladies are provided with a Blazer. They were designed and implemented by Nanahoshi aka "Silent". They look like Japanese student uniforms.

The Gym uniform is a robe and the academy doesn't provide them nor do they specify any restriction or preferences on what to wear. So students can buy whatever they want and for the case of Rudeus, he uses the robe he had been using from the Demon Continent.

Academy Curriculum
The curriculum lasts 7 years, though it is possible to extend the duration of the study if it involves magical research backed by the Magic Guild. Normal student's curriculum consists of general studies for 3 years (typically Beginner-class in all four attack magic), after which they can choose to further develop a certain branch up to Advanced-class. Magic curriculum generally goes up to Advanced-class with the exception of Divine Strike (up to Beginner-class) and Barrier (up to Beginner-class) magic which are restricted by the Milis Religion.

Unlike other Magical Schools, the lessons in the school are not just limited to magic. There are also swordsmanship and horse-handling classes.
