Vermont Academy

Vermont Academy's winter campus option, Vermont Academy at Mount Snow (VAMS), offers a unique opportunity for student-athletes to cultivate their passion for on-snow sports while maintaining a consistent college preparatory program. Athletes can elect to train four sessions per week at Mount Snow or board at the Matterhorn campus for a more immersive experience. Our teachers and coaches work collaboratively to support goal-driven student-athletes while instilling confidence, perseverance, and independence. This exceptional combination of elite coaching and strong academic programming sets our students on the path to athletic and academic success—without sacrificing one for the other. For a full snowsports academy experience, we operate as a winter boarding school, allowing our student-athletes to stay in dorms near the slopes to hone their skills while maintaining their studies in a one-on-one tutoring environment. VAMS is equipped to host intensive full-day training sessions that unlock the true potential of our student-athletes. Starting in the fall of 2025, our snowsport athletes will be able to train year-round on our state-of-the-art airbag training facility.
