The Vermont State College System has embraced a revolutionary, system-wide transformation so we can continue serving our students, the Vermont economy, and the Vermont communities that host our vibrant rural campuses. This is a big improvement from just last year when the pandemic hit, amplifying our budget challenges and forcing the VSCS to make an untenable decision: close campuses or face insolvency. State and college leaders rallied and we are now on the road to a unified school system that will be better for students and the demands of the Vermont workforce. Weâve frozen tuition, launched new scholarship opportunities, and thanks to support from state leaders, we are now on a solid enough financial footing that we can remove the prospect of campus closures while we trim administrative costs and grow revenue.
