Our students are bright and talented. Some have struggled their entire lives in traditional classrooms. Others have earned excellent high school grades and high SAT scores. Nearly a third of our students transferred to Landmark from other colleges and universities after realizing they weren't prepared for the demands of college — and being separated from their supportive family and high school environments.

Landmark is a residential college with dorms, dining facilities, counseling and health services, clubs and organizations, theater productions, sports and exercise facilities, and study abroad programs.

Landmark College exists solely to serve students with learning disabilities and/or AD/HD. We create highly personalized, successful learning strategies for students who learn differently. Here, you’ll find everyone is focused on helping you achieve your goal. You’ll live and learn with other students with learning disabilities. And, you’ll be taught by faculty members recognized as being among the most skilled LD educators in the field.

Students who graduate from Landmark College earn an Associate of Arts (AA) degree. Students can choose from four tracks: General Studies, Liberal Arts, Business Studies and Business Administration.

We have 100 faculty members and a 5:1 student/faculty ratio — one of the smallest in the country. Every faculty member at Landmark has both deep subject knowledge and an expertise in the field of learning disabilities.

More than 450 students attend Landmark, representing 40 states and seven foreign countries. Most first-year students live on campus in one of our seven residence halls.

The ratio of men to women at Landmark College is approximately 70/30.

Landmark offers a variety of clubs and organizations, intercollegiate, intramural and club sports, and campus events, including theater productions and Coffee House performances. Want to be a leader?

We also offer numerous club sports (recreational ice hockey, fencing, boxing and martial arts, badminton and indoor soccer), plus intramural sports (basketball, floor hockey, Frisbee golf, volleyball, softball, beach volleyball and flag football).

Landmark is located in the southeastern tip of Vermont, just 35 minutes north of Northampton, Mass., and the “five colleges” region (which includes Amherst, Hampshire, Mount Holyoke and Smith colleges and the University of Massachusetts-Amherst). We’re only 2-1/2 hours from Boston and 4-1/2 hours from New York City or Montreal, Canada — the perfect distance for a day trip or weekend getaway. Our campus is just minutes away from some of the best skiing and snowboarding on the East Coast.

Yes, Landmark is wireless — but we go way beyond that. We use the latest technology to boost your learning power. Technology is integrated throughout our curriculum. Our computer notebook program, which requires every student to have a laptop computer and a suite of required software, means every student can take advantage of the latest in assistive technology.

Landmark College is the leader in the integration of assistive technology for students with learning disabilities and/or AD/HD. Advancements in information technology — such as text-to-speech programs — offer exciting opportunities that can enhance and lead to breakthrough learning experiences for students. Because technology plays such a critical role in our educational program, we offer a full range of assistive technology services, including opportunities to explore new technologies, consultation regarding use, troubleshooting support, opportunities for training through individual and small group work, and scanning of course texts.

Of course! Landmark’s financial aid packages typically consist of a mix of state and federal grants and loans, plus a limited number of academic scholarships of up to $30,000. We also offer convenient payment plans. Our Financial Aid office will work with you and your family throughout the entire financial aid process.
