Champlain College, Burlington Vermont

<p>I would like to request that Champlain College be listed in the “Colleges” section. Princeton Review will be putting it in it’s 2011 book, [Princeton</a> Review Adds Champlain to ‘Best 376 Colleges’ List](<a href=“http://www.champlain.edu/News-and-Events/News/Princeton-Review.html]Princeton”>http://www.champlain.edu/News-and-Events/News/Princeton-Review.html)</p>

<p>I understand the CC policy of wanting a critical mass of posts before a college is added, but as other posters have pointed out before, this is sort of a chicken and egg criteria. If you put up the site, the posts will come. </p>

<p>There are already small colleges where posts are left unanswered for months and there is apparently little interest. Those colleges should be eliminated. I’m not sure where the original criteria came from when colleges were chosen, but it seems very arbitrary. St. Michael’s college is in a consortium with Champlain, it’s forum here is pretty much run by a rep from their admissions office and it does not seem fair that a similar place could not be found for Champlain. I’ve been a consistent poster on this site for at least 8 years and would be more then willing to keep up with questions there or steer posters in the right direction. I’ve known about Champlain for a number of years and my youngest son will be attending there this fall.</p>

<p>I agree that Champlain should be listed. Champlain College is a beautiful small college, in a wonderful city, which offers interesting majors that are not available everywhere (game design, computer forensics, criminal justice,…) I believe many applicants would be interested in hearing about this school, given the increase in interest I’ve observed in my town’s high school over the last few years.</p>

<p>Thank you both so much for encouraging College Confidential to include a page specifically for Champlain! I am here as a representative for the Champlain office of Undergraduate Admissions, so please let me know if I can help with any questions! KathieP, I hope your son had a wonderful experience here at Champlain.</p>
