Vermont private colleges and universities offer a wide range of education programs with degrees and certificates up to the doctoral level, as well as professional degrees such as law and medicine. These Vermont private schools are diverse in character, academic emphasis, and origins. Some private colleges or schools have a religious affiliation; others are secular.

Many students have found the actual out-of-pocket cost to earn a degree from a private college in Vermont to be less than the cost of the state schools to which they were accepted. On the one hand, public colleges are usually less expensive, particularly for in-state residents. They get most of their money from the state or local government.

AVIC seeks to strengthen the quality of higher education in Vermont, with a focus on its independent colleges, their service to the general public, and their accessibility to the broadest range of students.
Independent Schools Association of Northern New England ISANNE believe that there is no purpose more worthy or essential than educating our children. In a day and age of voluminous quantities of information and imagery being rapidly disseminated, in a time when the pace of change is often dizzying, it is absolutely necessary that schools devote careful, personal attention to their students and accept the responsibility for developing values in their hearts as well as capabilities in their minds. ISANNE believe that an independent school is the right setting for such efforts, and we are confident that you - parents of young people - will find the right independent school among the variety of Maine, New Hampshire and Vermont schools presented in this Directory.
