Lyndon State College, situated in the rural town of Lyndonville, Vermont, operates as part of Northern Vermont University since a 2018 unification with Johnson State College. Established in 1911, the college maintains a quaint New England setting approximately 75 miles from the state capital, Montpelier. The campus reflects a blend of traditional and modern architecture with facilities that support a residential student body through on-campus housing options. Academically, Lyndon State is recognized for a selection of programs particularly in fields such as Atmospheric Sciences, Mountain Recreation Management, and Education. The institution offers both undergraduate and graduate degrees and is characterized by a moderately selective admissions process. While not primarily known for its athletics, students do engage in various sports at the DIII level as the Northern Vermont University-Lyndon Hornets.
871 students are enrolled on a full time basis, and 276 attend part time. In-state tuition for 2022/2023, excluding room and board, is $10,632 plus fees of $1,098.
