About
Since 1791, the University of Vermont has worked to move humankind forward. Today, UVM is a top 100 research university of a perfect size, large enough to offer a breadth of ideas, resources, and opportunities, yet small enough to enable close faculty-student mentorship across all levels of study, from bachelor’s to M.D. programs. Here, students’ educational experience and activities are enriched by our location — from the energy and innovation of Burlington to the forests, farms, and independent spirit of Vermont. UVM provides students endless ways to explore the world, challenge ideas, and dig in on the most pressing issues of our time.
Our hometown perennially appears on national rankings that laud its livability, access to nature and recreation (including the best skiing in the northeast), thriving food and music scene, rising identity as a technology and innovation hub, and its status as a top college town.

University of Vermont Reviews
The City of Burlington is beautiful - nothing beats a Burlington sunset - and very walkable. The mountains are a short 30-60 minute drive away for hiking, biking, skiing/snowboarding, and rock climbing. I loved it so much I moved here after graduation.
I'm applying to grad schools in the fall, and I'm confident that the courses I took, the internships I obtained, and the experiences I had at UVM make me a strong candidate. I am so thankful for my experience at UVM!
Misc: I wish UVM had more therapists & psychiatrists on staff, weed is everywhere, parties are hard to come by
In terms of my academic experience, most of my professors have been excellent, however, I have had a few negative experiences. I like that this is a mid-sized university, however, environmental studies courses tend to fill up very quickly since it is one of the most popular majors here. There needs to be more more courses in certain subject areas, which I know larger schools would probably offer.
Burlington itself is a great location and you get to experience all four seasons, including a very picturesque fall.
