The University of Vermont officially University of Vermont and State Agricultural College, is a…read morepublic land-grant research university in Burlington, Vermont. It was founded in 1791. The university is the oldest in Vermont and the fifth-oldest in New England. It is among the oldest in the United States and is one of the original eight Public League Universities. My dear friend's daughter is in her senior year. It's going to be hard to say goodbye to our campus visits. It is a beautiful campus to visit and fun activities nearby like the Teddy Bear Factory and Maple Syrup Factory. If you stay near campus at a AirB&B it may be a home with historic charm. Plan your visits because graduation comes around quickly and you want to document your fond memories! The downside is the placement office. Don't expect much assistance finding employment in your chosen field when you graduate! Start planning in advance!

I had no idea what to expect of our visit to UVM as I'd never been in Vermont before this trip. I…read morecould simply sum it up with a 'Wow". Just the trip TO the school was a beautiful drive, but arriving in Burlington and walking around town was really great. We did do an official tour and the campus itself is beautiful. Our tour guide did an excellent job with our fairly large group and was able to answer all our questions. Dorms were...well they were dorm rooms, but some of the residence halls are actually quite nice. Unfortunately, I don't think this was the right 'fit' for my son so it's unlikely that he will end up here as a student, but it had more to do with the makeup of the academic program he was interested in rather than him not liking the campus. Seriously, this is really a beautiful campus with access to great outdoor activities in all seasons. Reduced price ski trips for students, great activities ON campus, and so much to do in town. Burlington is a great town with LOTS of great places to eat and drink...lots of local brews to enjoy if you are into craft beers as well.

Champlain College has fallen from grace from the early 2000s and is a rundown mismanaged nightmare…read more I loved it in 2018 but the place is dirty, things barely function, and when there are increasing concerns about safety, ADA compliance (Wick Hall is no longer as the ADA entrance wheelchair opener fell last year and is just a hole in the ceiling now), fireplaces are out-of-date for safety inspections, Compass Student Services is rude and unhelpful. Worst of all is the event center staff who don't care for students and care whenever there are other events not hosted by the college. I have emailed multiple times about broken and missing door handles to one building. It has been a year. NOTHING has been done and apparently being able to enter is becoming quite difficult as the S.D. Ireland building is missing a handle, 194 St Paul St missing a handle, and I think Aiken is as well. Honestly, the school hasn't truly seen any care since 2000 as a fire alarm just went off recently from how dusty it was in the Garden House.

I have been attending Champlain college for 2 years and will be completed in August. I've never had…read moreas many issues as I've had this past year. The academic advisor I have been assigned to is almost non-existent. I have updated my phone number in their system multiple times but yet they keep calling the wrong number. They will email you halfway through your appointment and even if you respond back they will not call you back. I am in the accelerated program and recently got hit with an academic integrity warning and there's no option for fighting any of this unless you submit in writing to the dean for a review on the matter but it has to be by end of semester which semesters only last 7 weeks and I was given this notice on the weekend after the semester ended, giving me no time to submit a grievance. I've tried reaching out to anyone I can and there's no one I could speak to other than my academic advisor on the issue which I could never get a hold of. All in all, it's been a horrible experience. I would say about half of the professors really care about their students online and the others are just quick to give you a grade and send you on your way.

He would come home every day from school waiting to show his dad and I what he had learned. I remember how he became sad when the weekends would arrived; he would ask me why the school had to close on the weekend. Honestly, if ICS were open on the weekends he would be there. I am so thankful for the hard work and attention Ms. Khouri gives to all the children.They truly LOVE learning...They learned about Composers, famous Artists, Countries, they also learned 3 different languages, Spanish, French and Chinese, they had yoga class, taekwondo, and dance class while my son was attending, they also learned about the human body and how it works, so fantastic.. Thank you -ICS Parent

From the owner: As an early learning school for young children, we have helped hundreds of children build excellent…read moreskills in reading, spelling, math and science in addition to excellent handwriting. We teach children French , Spanish and newly added Chinese as our second languages, as well as introduce music and the study of many composers with our students. In class, our students "travel" to a different country as they learn about the world and its people. We take pride in our diverse classroom and teach our students to appreciate the beauty of other cultures. Our age group would be classified under Daycares, Nursery School, Public Pre-schools and Kindergartens however the benefits at our school have far exceeded parents' expectations...

I am working on my private pilot license as a…read morestudent in Vermont Technical College's Professional Pilot Technology program and I am so happy that I chose to pursue me certifications through VFA. I have flown with a few CFI's over the past few months and each one is extremely professional, flexible, patient, and you always feel safe with them. Not only do they help you develop your understanding of the weather, proper aeronautical decision making, and flight planning, but they spend the time with you to answer questions thoroughly. When I was looking at options to pursue aviation I looked at various programs around New England and I couldn't be happier that I chose VFA. Their planes are great and Burlington is a beautiful place to learn to fly. Going there is one of the highlights of my week.

Kaplan misrepresented twice on the phone that the classes are suitable for kids who get extended…read moretime on the SAT. They are not. They do offer accommodations but only through a special form that they did not offer us until the class started. Phone reps are compensated on a commission basis, which in retrospect explains a lot. It takes several weeks to process an accommodation request by which time the class would have been complete, and in any case it was clear to my son that no meaningful accommodation is possible within the class. My son attended two classes and the initial test diagnostic (which despite our phone conversations on this did not include extended time) which we thought would fall within the 2-class guarantee -- it turns out the initial test counts as a "class" and they are offering zero refund. We are now disputing the charges for the class with our credit card company. I am shocked at the bureaucracy and lack of customer service within the national organization. The local teachers may (or may not) be fine (it depends who you get -- they seem to train an ever-revolving group of college students). Overall, for the price, I think any students (those who need accomodations and those who don't) will be better off by hiring one of the many local tutors who do one-on-one teaching (some of these people are former Kaplan teachers).
