Sort By: [Date] [Major] [Rating] Animal Studies  Major Salary, Salary Trend, Satisfaction, Unemployment Quite Bright My experience at this school was truly amazing. I was in the dairy herd management program and every member of this faculty was truly dedicated to my success and well-being in the program and in life. The best part about this school was the one-on-one contact I was able to get. In this major we were able to get hands-on experience at the school owned farm. Anyone that wanted to work or learn in a positive environment had endless oppurtunities to do so. We also had a small enough number of kids where we all knew each other and had classes with each other. It was like a built in support system where I always had people who shared my interest in dairy cows. It was nice to have that almost automatic friendship. One thing you have to be prepared for going to this school is the small environment. It isn't situated in a big city and it can be hard to find things to do. But this, in my opinion, isn't necessarily a bad thing. I was able to go to school in an environment I felt more comfortable in and it made me feel safer knowing I was in a small town. I could go on and on about all the good aspects to this school. However, I will just say I had a very good experience there and would go back anyday.

The administration was terrible to deal with, it was very difficult (from the beginning) to get a hold of anyone in admissions or financial aid for questions. I left messages on many occasions, and they were never returned. When I did get to speak with someone, they were almost ALWAYS rude and didn't know how to help me. I can remember only one good experience with someone over the phone out of several. The instructors I had were unprofessional in my opinion, teaching based on their personal opinions and not based on fact and information. Nursing students are expected to buy all their own uniforms and mandatory equipment (very very costly) even though the tuition is thousands and thousands of dollars a year. They are also expected to use their personal vehicles to drive to different clinical locations, with no fuel reimbursement. I am unsure what all that tuition money is used for. I could go on and on, but to sum it up, WAY not worth the cost. Preparedness: B+, Reputation: D Have a Question? Your Response/Question:     To be informed when someone replies to your comment.

I'm graduating with a BS in Electromechanical Engineering and I've already got a job lined up. Two competitive internships that I've participated in over the past two summers helped me understand how well this school has prepared me for the professional engineering world. Expect to work hard or else you'll be lost - not an easy degree. Education Quality: A+, Surrounding City: F Have a Question?

Needless to say I went for the easiest major, Business. That is exactly what it was. If you don't like English or hate grammar like the rest of the school, stay away from Business. I breezed through it. VTC is good for an AS, then transferring on. I dragged out my education and got nothing out of it. Plus, unless you like redneck social events, you will have no social life. But, then again if you are going to school in Vermont, maybe you know that already. Perceived Campus Safety: A, Surrounding City: F Have a Question?
