Review of Northern Vermont University-Do Not Use, 230913
from Hyde Park, VT
Do you feel you’re learning a lot?
Here at JSC we have a very small number of students per classroom except for science classes and labs. The chance of a one on one relationship you can have with your professor is so high here which makes it easy to go to them to get help or just to have a relaxed conversation. The professors here are very enthusiastic about their student's success which drives us as students to work hard and do well. I feel that, although I have changed my major once already as a sophomore I am learning a lot and also the small classes make it easy to go on field studies and field trips so you can learn even more from experience.
Do you enjoy the experience at your school?
As a commuter people were worried that I wouldn't get the experience of college life but I am at JSC 9-12 hours per day because I love it so much. I have made at least twenty five new friends here and that amount is growing. The community that JSC provides is supportive, involved, enthusiastic, and inspiring and that is why I enjoy being here.
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
Here at JSC the quality of higher education is worth the amount of money one has to pay. The overall experience of living here or near here is wonderful because of all that the campus provides. There are over 100 clubs one can be apart of just for taking classes here, the food isn't bad, and the one on one time with professors is extremely helpful. As a commuter I pay half the price of an on campus student but I still am a big part of the community here and the satisfaction one gets from being involved and making a difference is definitely worth the buck.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
I can think of four very important tips for JSC students.
Be diligent.
Get involved.
Do what you love to do.
Have fun, it is college after all.
Which types of students will excel at your college?
Future artists
Future teachers
Future psychologists
Snow boarders
Skiers
Dancers ( the dance club is the largest and funnest club on campus)
