Yudhoyono had wanted to join the army since he was a child.[3] In school, he developed a
reputation as an extremely talented student in addition to being an academic achiever, excelling
in writing poems, short stories, and play-acting. Yudhoyono was also talented in music and sport,
reflected when he and his friends established a volleyball club called   and a band
called 
.[4]

When he was in fifth grade, Yudhoyono visited the Indonesian Armed Forces Academy
(AKABRI). After seeing the soldiers training there and perhaps inspired by his own father's
career, Yudhoyono became determined to join Indonesian Armed Forces and become a soldier.
Yudhoyono had originally wanted to get into the AKABRI after graduating from high school in
1968, however, he missed out because he did not register in time. He also filled his life with
dancing, so when we watch him talk he always move his hand like a dance.[3]

Yudhoyono then became a student at the Tenth of November Institute of Technology before
entering the Vocational Education Development Center in Malang, East Java. There, he was able
to prepare everything for the next phase of his education at Akabri. Yudhoyono officially entered
AKABRI in 1970 after passing the test in Bandung.[3]
