College Factual was founded, in part, to help students make the decision as to what would be the best school for them. Our Best Value Colleges for International Students in Vermont ranking is part of that endeavor.

Our analysis looked at 7 schools in Vermont to determine which ones were the best for international students in Vermont. Our ranking is based on several objective factors, including the school's overall value and the total number of international students at the school.

We know that one set of rankings doesn't always help you determine the best school for you, so we've created the ability to narrow your list by location as well as alternative rankings that prioritize different factors such as those of importance to online students or returning adults or those who value diversity and overall quality.

You can create your own custom comparison that focuses on the factors most important to you using our tool, College Combat. Test it out by comparing your favorite schools against others you are considering, or bookmark the tool so you can experiment with it later.
