Virginia Intermont College, located in Bristol, Virginia, offers the warmth of a small town and the variety of a cosmopolitan area. Surrounded by a Tri-Cities area population of approximately 500,000, their campus of 585 gives students a comfortable atmosphere where close relationships form and flourish. Outdoor recreation opportunities abound with easy access to boating, hiking, rafting, biking and winter skiing.
