[quote=Anonymous]My DS is a freshman there now. Loving it. As people say above, transportation can be tricky. He has a car that he parks off campus so he can get home when he needs to (we live about four hours away) and also allows him to get out and about easily for skiing, hiking etc. He hasn’t done a winter yet but we live in Maine so he does have some reference points. He seems to really like his classes, my sense is he’s taking college more seriously than he took high school (he was a pretty good student, smart kid, and probably a bit of an underachiever for his capacity.) He has found lots of opportunities for fun and is really enjoying Burlington and the surrounding area a lot. Doesn’t hurt that the men’s soccer team is killing it again this year so there’s some fun sports energy on campus (would not matter to me but something he really enjoys.) it has a different vibe and a lot of other state schools because the majority of kids are from out of state. So my experience as a parent is still pretty new since he’s only a few months in, but overall we’ve been really delighted that he is there.[/quote]
