ROAD to Success

An Engineering student works in a lab

According to the 2020 Census, rural Vermont students are currently less likely than their urban counterparts to enroll in and graduate from four-year education programs. 

Funded by The U.S. Department of Education Rural Post-secondary and Economic Development program, ROAD to Success is designed to link students from rural Vermont communities to high-wage and high-demand occupations in Vermont.

Participants must have attended a rural Vermont high school or a rural Community College of Vermont campus AND have a need for technology or paid internships in order to complete their program of study at one of VTSUs rural campuses.
