How To Get To NVU-Johnson

Where We Are

Parking, Driving Directions, and Area Hotels and Accommodations Near NVU-Johnson

With year-round mountain views on both NVU campuses, you can see every day why Vermont is called the Green Mountain State. NVU is in the heart of the beautiful, inspiring mountains. No smog. No traffic congestion. You can see stars at night and hear yourself think.

But as a student at NVU-Johnson, you’ll be close to big-city life, with Boston, Montreal, New York, and other cultural and sports centers less than a day’s drive away. Within Vermont, the state’s largest city and college town, Burlington, and the capital, Montpelier, isn’t far. And we’re a short distance from some of the region’s best outdoor recreational hubs like the Long Trail, Smuggler’s Notch Resort, Stowe Mountain Resort, Jay Peak Resort, and the Lamoille Valley Rail Trail.

Driving Directions

Vermont Rt. 15 goes to the town of Johnson, where the campus is located. When you arrive in Johnson, turn right onto Pearl Street, cross the bridge and go straight. (Your maps app may direct you to turn on School Street, but don’t do it!) Just over half a mile up the hill, the campus entrance will be on your right.
