    I have heard nothing, but wonderful comments on Vermont Technical College. However, the college's programs are competitive, I am honored to be accepted into any one of their offered degree programs. Vermont Tech is highly competitive and caught my attention because of how competitive their nursing program is. I am excited to join the college in the upcoming year, as well as gain an exceptional education from my top college!

    I am a nursing student at Vermont Technical College. I love this school because the class sizes are small and there is a lot of hands on work involved. This semester I averaged a 3.5 GPA, which is something that I have never done before. The professors are also engaging and really want their students to succeed in their program. I also work at VTC during the summer and the staff here are welcoming. The last thing I'm going to bring up is how I feel safe at VTC because the public safety are strict and there are many rules that students have to follow.
    I really liked my online classes through Vermont Tech; the class size was actually large, but I never felt like it was. The professor was amazing, very fair, very active and very much a strong contributor to my learning experience. I could ask questions and receive almost immediate feedback. Clear instructions were given so I knew exactly what to expect and feedback was available. In addition, the professor would review our drafts and make corrections before we submitted our final papers so that we had opportunities to learn from our mistakes and correct them. This was my favorite class and had a very positive outcome!
