Yeah I think they mean update letters/letters of interest and letters of intent via the application portal.

There is a Facebook group link on the accepted students page of Larner. You can request to join.

Maybe? There is much, much more that goes into a medical school acceptance than a single semester GPA.

If I’ve already sent a Letter of Intent, should I be writing another one? Feels kinda weird and would I write completely new information that my first one?

I think if you have new information to update them, then it probably doesn't hurt.

Are WL decisions also only released on Thursdays? It's interesting there doesn't seem to have been any movement yet
Hey guys,
So I had a question for anyone familiar with UVM. Is the clinical experience better at either location? My concern is that there isn’t that many people at the Vt locations which means that you might not see as many patients compared to Ct or is that actually good since you will be able to interact with attendings more?
Thank you.

Thank you.
UVM is the only tier 1 trauma center in VT. You're going to see plenty at either.
I have moved your post to the Vermont thread as that is where you will most likely hear from existing students or applicants in the local area.

You'll get good experience at either. Will it be the same experience as a school in a major city? Probably not, but people travel hours (not because of traffic but because of distance) to go to UVMMC so you will see lots of interesting pathologies. Not a ton of ethnic diversity but lots of socioeconomic diversity across VT. Some high acuity patients choose to go to Boston, though. I know a few people who went to UVM and they were able to get great hands-on training with more autonomy than big-name academic centers. As long as you are competent and enthusiastic you will get great training.
Accepted off Alternate List; October interview
seems like the waitlist is finally moving now 🤧 good luck everyone ❤️

Nothing other than the FAFSA estimation. Really hoping scholarships come through 🙁

OOS A yesterday. I am over the moon.
Does anyone know how to access the Estimated Family Contribution from the FAFSA form? It seems as though it is no longer a feature of the 2024-2025 form.

Does anyone know the amount of in-person class at UVM? Are there any sample class scheduled available?
SAIC same thing.
They're heavy on in-person learning but it seems like most of it is optional based on talking to students. I got to sit in on a few classes and they were very interesting though.

We were told that the classes are recorded and not mandatory during Closer Look. They let you know about mandatory sessions when they come up. From the students I talked to it seemed like about half preferred to just watch recordings at home and the other half went to lectures, but it was not mandatory.
Business casual for clinical functions. Get a lightweight fleece for 40-60deg weather and a heavy down/puffer jacket for when it gets really cold. Layer in sweaters etc as needed. At least one pair of waterproof boots for walking around campus, it's snowy or sleet/muddy for like 7-8 months.

Are you saying the "Your Student Aid Index (SAI)" number is the same as EFC? I thought EFC would be 0 since we file as independent now on the FAFSA, also my family will in fact be contributing 0 lol
I think that’s why they renamed it, because the SAI/EFC has always looked at how much the people technically financially responsible for you—your parents when you’re still an undergrad or yourself once you turn 24 (I think that’s the age). Essentially the SAI is how much you should be able to reasonably pay towards your academic fees (theoretically).
I’m late, but I received a scholarship email on 4/29
