Parents of Prospective Students

Parents of high school students who are embarking on the college search often want answers to different questions than their son or daughter. We have grouped links at the bottom of this page that directly address parent concerns. Feel free to contact the Admissions Office at admission@champlain.edu if you have additional questions.

Champlain is located in the historic and beautiful Hill Section of Burlington, Vermont -- one of the safest cities in one of the safest states in the country. Burlington is a vibrant small city and offers a wide range of community activities, restaurants, cultural events, music venues, shops and coffee houses. The proximity to rural Vermont, and the Green Mountains, Adirondack Mountains and Lake Champlain, allows for almost any outdoor activity one could imagine. The combination of Burlington and Vermont makes this one of the most sought after college destinations in the country. Uniformed security personnel patrol the campus 24 hours a day. Though virtually crime-free, Champlain College goes the extra mile with special safety workshops, safety lighting, locked dorms and dorm rooms, emergency call boxes, watchful adult Head Residents, and electronic fire alarm systems.
