How is the friendliness of the admissions office?

No responses

How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

No responses

How did you prepare for the interview?

Sdn, read about the school and went over my application. Read some stuff about bioethics though i did not get asked about it at all.

What impressed you positively?

The friendliness of the students and how approachable they are. I love the new curriculum and all the interest groups UVM has. It is not bad for a town. If you like snow and out door activities, then this is a good place for you. I also like the fact that students can do their residency in Maine.

What impressed you negatively?

The committee meets three times, one in nov ( i think), one in feb and one in april. You may be put on a waiting list, but they accept 100 and wait list about 300. The student host told me that most of her classmates were actually from the wait list.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Nothing really.

What are your general comments?

My interviewer was very friendly and wanted to get to know me. It sucks that i have to wiat till the end of april till they decide. They are focued on primary care and very open to students. They are undergoing construction now.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
