^for real. out of the two i think uvm is the best bet. there's decent skiing, good academics, and a good social scene. when i visited they had everything i wanted from a college there, so hopefully i'll be going there.
i go to uvm. the skiing is good, but more importantly the vibe around here is awesome. You meet friendly people that are so chill on and off the hill. I wouldnt want to go school anywhere else.
I'd say UVM because its closer to home. i know i was thinking about colorado, but i wouldnt be able to be that far away from home. and a lot of people i know that end up going far end up transfering closer. its all really up to you tho. if your comfortable being that far away then its cool.
thats not my point. i was saying going all the way to colorado can be a pretty big shock, especially if youve never been that far. and you can still go away from home and not be across the country, and have a good experience.
