I loved it when I visited the area, its a really nice school. I would have gone except I got no financial aid.

Those are all very subjective things. Why don't you go visit and decide for yourself?

I've heard that Burlington is a great area but the cost to go to is kind of outrageous. I hope I can get financial aid.

No, my younger brother does that. He's a freshman and, as far as I can tell, likes it. Burlington is about as good of a college town as you're going to find.

Graduating in spring from UVM. Fucking depressing, but UVM kicks ass, Burlington kicks ass, and Vermont kicks ass. I have had so much fun here and would recommend it to anyone, you honestly won't regret coming here.

Girls: 9
Sports: 6
Parties: 7
Venues: 8 (HG and Memorial)
Vibe: 9
Drugs: 9
Dining: 5
Res Halls: 7 (This ALL depends on where you get stuck)

I would put dining at 7 at least. Trinity blows, Cook is typical college dining hall, the Grundle is good, and Redstone is excellent. People always bitch about the Grundle but it isn't bad at all. I miss having on campus dining, it's way more convenient.

I had a good time at UVM. I definitely had more friends that went to Champlain though. That is mostly due to skiing at the Bush.

I graduated last spring. burly and Uvm are fucking awesome. the only downside is the price of both school itself and living in town, but it can be made up for in $1 beers most nights of the week

take whats brewing in food science...yep, they have a beer brewing class, thats what up

Yeah we do, and it isn't bad at all compared to a lot of colleges. Not sure why everyone complains about it. Also, the University/students are pretty heavily involved with getting as local food as possible.

Getting in won't be difficult, paying out of state tuition will though. They aren't very generous with scholarships either.

Honestly I can't really speculate on that. It all depends on the concentration you choose (finance, marketing etc.). There are a lot of services offered to help you find internships and such, but ultimately the amount of opportunity you're given depends on how hard you work and in what field.

I'm literally sitting in the brewing class right now while responding to this. We're learning about hard cider right now. Super interesting
