DD interview 10/6 💔 anyone have any idea how long it could be before we get an update? UVM is my top school and I'm considering if I should send a letter of intent, but don't know when the best time would be

No updates or LOI I just waited since I had the interview so early in the cycle, but I think maybe if you don't hear back after a month or two maybe an update would be helpful !!

I have 2 friends at Larner and they both interviewed septemeber/october got DD in november and then didn’t hear until May/June. I think it could be a while for some. I have heard that UVM has a pretty high turnover on the waitlist and that a lot of people who are there come off the waitlist/accepted much later in the cycle so it seems there’s a lot of hope and definitely not a bad thing to be DD or waitlist but it could take awhile
 
Oh thanks I think I read somewhere that they dont!
On the website it says they will take updates, however they aren’t necessary.

This was the associate dean talking about them:

 
Does anyone know if UVM has sent out any post interview Rs? Im seeing that some people from my interview date heard back As yesterday and I’m getting nervous 😬

Not sure but I haven’t heard back yet either, interviewed on 10/16. Should we expect another wave of decisions to be sent out this week for those who are still waiting to hear back?
 
They relayed during my interview day that they only met once a month for committee decisions. I'm assuming the next wave will be in January, but I could be wrong. They said on my interview day in October we would get decisions late November / early December, but I'm not sure if that's two separate waves or just one wave before they go on break.

I was under the impression it was once a month, as well. I’d love to be surprised though lol
 
Does anyone know how UVM is processing IS applications this year? I know they moved away from using the IS interview day, but I wasn't sure how their process changed otherwise and if they said anything in a Q&A session etc.

From what I've heard, they have completely changed how they review IS applicants. Anecdotal data, but I do not know of any other IS applicants who have been interviewed yet. Hopefully, that helps because they do interview a large majority of IS folks. I wouldn't be surprised if a large wave of II comes through either this month or January. I would also say that it felt like the folks in my interview group were all highly competitive OOS applicants who would get multiple As (not sure how I ended up in that group). I'm curious to see how many of them end up matriculating.

They have definitely changed how they review IS. I’ll add that I (IS) interviewed in October and there were two fellow IS applicants I met during my day
 
Anyone have thoughts about when we'll see the next round of decisions? I'm wondering if (realistically) it won't be until January bc of the holidays.

Fairly certain it's once per month but I could be wrong

looks like last year they had some decisions come out dec 17th (looking at cycle tracker), but i do think they only do once a month, with that said I don’t think any decisions came out in november so maybe november’s was dec 1 cuz of where thanksgiving landed (i’m probably over analyzing)
