Thiccy I missed hearing from you !We will get the results when Bernie becomes president, so just be patient
Apparently they are having their second Closer Look day (accepted students day) today, so I guess it’s real 🥹Is this school real and did any of us actually interview or is it just a collective false memory bordering on delusion
so another day w no decisions hmmmApparently they are having their second Closer Look day (accepted students day) today, so I guess it’s real 🥹
Another day, another slayyy ✨so another day w no decisions hmmm
This makes me think that they've offered at least 124 acceptances so far, if not many more. Logically, it would make no sense for them to be this far into the season without the possibility of a full roster. I think I've really been holding out that my DD could turn into an acceptance any day now, but I've lost pretty much all hope. I know the only saving grace is that this school supposedly has a lot of waitlist movement, but now with the setup this year I'm not sure. It's really disheartening... Thoughts and prayers to all my fellow comrades in the trenches out here.Apparently they are having their second Closer Look day (accepted students day) today, so I guess it’s real 🥹
I wouldn’t lose hope their only other accepted students day was in December, so they probably are catching up to offer something to other accepted students before May 1. Additionally, only ~66 people are in the Facebook group, which includes an admissions member and potentially people who withdrew acceptances.This makes me think that they've offered at least 124 acceptances so far, if not many more.

SameHey, I interviewed in February but have not heard back. Is that normal? I thought perhaps I got rejected but nothing.
There is no strict rule to my understanding, just recommendations for students as to when they should withdraw/commit by. Please see the following AMCAS guidance: Application and Acceptance Protocols for ApplicantsThey have to get back to us by May 1 right? Anyone know if there is an actual rule for that?
Is there a way to let AMCAS know if a school is not following these guidelines? Just wondering as April 30th is quickly approaching lolThere is no strict rule to my understanding, just recommendations for students as to when they should withdraw/commit by.

EDIT: upon further analysis, admissions officers also have “traffic laws,” which can be found here: Application and Acceptance Protocols - Admission Officers
They’re just “recommendations” by AMCAS from what I understandSo....

Hang in there, Spidey. I actually cried about it a few days back because I so badly want to attend UVM but the stress was really getting to me. We're in this together (cue High School Musical soundtrack)!Man this is getting ridiculous
SureAny current students willing to answer some questions?
My theory is that they’re employing a new strategy this year to better gauge acceptances ahead of April 30 so as to not hand out too many Acceptances that people end up declining. Perhaps an accepted student can attest if Vermont has recently circulated emails inviting you to the Fb group?I’ve been noticing the facebook group slowly going up, they are at 77 with 15 new ones in the past week
At the recent second look day, they mentioned the Fb group which may explain the recent surge this week since many did not know about the group beforehand. That being said, I would guess somewhere between 5-10 people are current students (posting housing opportunities) or administrators.Perhaps an accepted student can attest if Vermont has recently circulated emails inviting you to the Fb group?
*tomorrow or FridayI mean… it’s gotta be today or tomorrow right?
I received a merit scholarship directly after being admitted. When I checked to see what need-based aid was like (my EFC is literally 0), they said they don't offer any need-based scholarships, so the rest would be in loans.Anyone gotten financial aid / scholarships from here yet?
If I may ask- are you in state? And had you already filled out fafsa for them prior to scholarship?I received a merit scholarship directly after being admitted.

interviewed in september man same boat lolI interviewed early December, it is now nearly May, and all I have gotten is “DD”. This is so ridiculous and insulting.
+1interviewed in september man same boat lol
I'm OOS. I had not yet filled out FAFSA for them when they awarded the scholarship. It was awarded by the admissions office, rather than the financial aid office.If I may ask- are you in state? And had you already filled out fafsa for them prior to scholarship?
I'm debating just withdrawing at this point since the only way I end up here is if I'm admitted and its directly followed up with a scholarship, so I'm wondering if that's even a possibility
+1Interviewed in September. Placed on DD in January. Zero communication since.
Is anyone else fed up with this lack of communication this late into the cycle? I'm extremely grateful to have an A elsewhere, but I was originally really excited about UVM! Now I'm just annoyed lol
I feel like AMCAS would be the place. Unfortunately, however, the traffic laws for admissions committees in terms of timeliness are just recommendations and not required.+1
I've asked this a few times now, but does anyone know if there is anywhere we can lodge a complaint about this? It just feels very much like we're being taken advantage of. Like applications are expensive and we aren't even being given the courtesy of a real, timely answer.
Crickets for everyone?Alright uvm let’s do this
