What impressed you positively?

I loved this school! All of the people were so nice, and the faculty seemed so devoted to the students. It was a really laid back, non-competative environment.

What impressed you negatively?

The only downfall to UVM is the cost of tuition. However, you can opt to do your rotations (starting in your 2nd year!) in Portland, ME, and if you do, they pay for housing costs.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

I discovered that all of the other students I interviewed with had (like me), taken a few years off from college before applying to medical school. I thought this might make me stand out, because I had been working in the medical field, but all of the other students had graduated at least a year prior and had been working or doing research.

What are your general comments?

I was interviewed by a member of the faculty. He was so nice, and put me at ease. The interview felt much more like a conversation than an interview.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
