Shannon - 01/31/2021

Southern Vermont College was a wonderful college and I made lots of friends there when I attended, and the teachers were awesome too. They had plenty of sports to choose from, including Rugby! I stayed on campus, and the rooms were quite small for two people, but at least my roommate was decent. Unfortunately the school is closed now.

ZOE - 07/13/2018

They have good academics and wonderful professors that are willing to help you and meet with you as often as you need. The biggest downfall of the school is that there is not much to do on campus because it is so small and if you don't play a sport it's hard to fit in or make friends.

Bevin - 05/22/2018

Overall, I believe that Southern Vermont College offers great opportunities for students of all backgrounds. Being a small school, it offers a small close knit community where you are able to achieve in both your academics and learning how to be away from home for the first time helping you grow as a person. SVC provides a lot of support and knowledge to their students, and the professors are more than willing to help you get the best education that you strive for.

Daniel - 02/02/2017

Southern Vermont College is a good school. It is small, the classes are small and you become a person to the teacher, and not just a number. Teachers are always helping and they are always available to help you succeed. Beautiful campus but there is not too much people living in campus.
