Have you ever attended Meredith Manor Equestrian College?
I’m looking for experiences from former or current students of Meredith Manor equestrian school in Parkersburg, WV. I’m getting ready to start their riding master program, and I was hoping I could hear a little about what it is like to be a student there. Also, where do you buy your tack from locally?
I’m not looking for opinions as to whether or not I should attend. I’m already enrolled and have been to the campus. It’s a fine school. I’m just looking to hear about the experience from students who have already attended.
I haven’t attended MM, but I have a close friend who did. She is a Riding Master V graduate I think. I haven’t talked to her in-depth about her experience, but she seemed to like it very well whenever it came up. One thing she specifically said was that it was a “real experience.” She really seemed to enjoy getting to work with so many different horses and I don’t think I ever once remember her complaining about a professor, which is unusual. I’d be happy to ask her any questions you might have though, or even put you in touch with her if she doesn’t mind. She’s a busy person so she doesn’t always have time, but you never know. Feel free to email me.
ETA; I think a lot of the people’s comments here were unnecessary. At first when I looked through MM’s page, I wasn’t impressed with the look of it since I’m used to my community college, which has a great horse program with fantastic facilities. But you don’t need a beautiful campus and impeccable barns to get a great experience. Most people in the horse industry don’t start out in the state-of-the-art facilities we all dream of. Personally I was impressed about the fact that they recycle old buses and shipping crates. After all; reuse, reduce, recycle!
