What impressed you positively?

Every single person I met was very nice and welcoming. The new facilities and buildings are great. Very non-competitive, cooperative atmosphere. Integrated curriculum. Beautiful town.

What impressed you negatively?

I'm from California so it was definitely a lot colder than I'm used to. But I guess almost everywhere is compared to CA!

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Nothing really.

What are your general comments?

I had a great experience at UVM. The faculty and staff are really nice. You get the sense that they definitely care about the student and their individual needs. The new curriculum and facilities are impressive. My interview was very laid-back. I didn't feel like I was being grilled. If you don't mind the cold or living in a small city, then this is a great place to go to school.
