“Undergraduate research is basically unheard of anywhere else. So because of Castleton, I’ll have a leg up on both experience and mastering scientific techniques when I graduate.”
“My professors have shown a genuine interest in the person I am and have pushed me to be the best student I can be. The faculty as well as my coaches have always reached out a helping hand.”
“The opportunities at Castleton made so much possible for me, including internships, cultural excursions, and the ability to be a leader among my peers.”
"Castleton provides the kind of opportunities you would see at a larger university; we have access to the same information and resources. But I think something you don't get at a larger school is that feeling of family, community, and cohesiveness."
