Courses offered: Virginia Intermont is one of only a few schools in the nation to offer an academically accredited four-
year degree in Equine Studies. Attracting students from all regions of the United States and several foreign countries,
Intermont takes a balanced approach to educating professional horsemen and women who are able to contribute to the
equine industry on both national and global levels. Beginning with a strong commitment to traditional horsemanship, an
emphasis on the mechanism of the horse, and the workings of rider position, students continue to gain expertise in
hunters, hunter seat equitation, jumpers, dressage, combined training, barn management, and health-related issues.
While the curriculum allows for a great deal of riding, the major emphasis of Intermont's Equine program is developing
the skills that will prepare students for careers in the horse industry. Courses in teaching, schooling, barn/show
management, anatomy, first aid, and equine nutrition, when combined with an excellent liberal arts core, are all part of
that preparation.
Virginia Intermont offers many other areas of study that can be combined with an equine degree or equine minor to
provide you with the best possible undergraduate experience. Combine your passion with a comprehensive college
education at VI.
