Vermont State University Handbook

Welcome, students, to Vermont State University! You are joining a community of learning every bit as unique, welcoming, and exceptional as the state we call home. Our mission and community values define us and guide everything we do. The University Handbook is the foundation for a positive, inclusive, and responsible experience at Vermont State that will give you what you need to achieve your educational goals.

Whether you frequent one of our five main campuses, commute to one of our many satellite locations, study online, or learn via some combination of those options, please take the time to familiarize yourself with the information, expectations, and policies. If you have any questions about the Handbook, please contact the office of the Dean of Students at DeanofStudents@VermontState.edu.

May the year ahead be successful for you — inside and outside of the classroom!

Dr. David Bergh
Interim President
