Hey everyone, quick question about UVM's online status check. Does it say anywhere whether or not my file is considered officially complete? Every time I log in, it shows my secondary, fee and letters of rec as received, but there is nothing that says "under review" or "complete" or anything like that.

I applied in Sept. and after a while it said Yes to rec letters received. Then after a month or so my status changed to under review. Hope that helps...
 
I must say that UVM takes forever to process applications! I've turned mine in September and I am still "under review"! I e-mailed them about my application status and they said that hopefully i'll have a status change by the end of january. 😱
 
We have received all materials you have indicated on your supplemental application and your file is under review. Please note that the preliminary review of your file may take 6-8 weeks. Please continue to check your status through the Online Applicant Center.
Same message for like 2.5 months.... they're two weeks behind 🙂 I should tell them to hurry up
 
Mine recently changed to you are in an interview pool but does not guarantee and interview. I wonder if anybody has gotten this status and how long did they wait to hear something.

That's what I've got too. I've had it since 12/21 along with VCU and RFU's mysterious interview pools. What the eff do these things mean?
 
Cataract and ChePibe--

Do you mind sharing when you were complete/submitted?

9/21...so exactly 3 months before I dipped into the interview pool.
 
It was the beginning of december, 4 or 5th. Then I think it took a couple of weeks to go under review. It was under review for about 4 or 5 weeks.
 
Hey guys,

I was complete in October sometime, was put in the "continue to review" pile or whatever, and was offered an interview a week ago for the end of March. I'm an international candidate as well so there's still hope. Good luck.
 
I was "under preliminary review" (all caps) in October. I switched to "under review" in December, and now I just switched back to the original "under preliminary review" message. Is this normal?
 
Complete: 09/07
Placed in interview pool: 11/26

I haven't been invited to interview.

I think I gave up on UVM.
 
I'm also in the fun pool of applicants who are now being considered for an interview, but are guaranteed nothing. "Jawohl, yew v'ar guaranteed nuh-zing! NUH-zING!!" I like the ambiguous suspense this creates. (You can almost hear 1,000 pre-med applicants scratching their collective heads.)
Anyway, I love the school, would love to go, and am as anxious as anyone else to hear.

One question, does anyone know if it's possible to claim VT residency for the purposes of in-state tuition after one year in VT? The UVM policy seems to imply that it would be nearly impossible to due so:

"4. An applicant becoming a student within one year of first
moving to the state shall have created a rebuttable
presumption that residency in Vermont is for the purpose of
attending UVM and/or acquiring in-state status for tuition
purposes." http://www.uvm.edu/~rgweb/app_in_state.pdf

Unless I'm completely confused on what the term "rebuttable presumption" means, doesn't this imply that you're basically screwed?​

Yes. Don't even bother to try for instate residency if you move there for med school. At least, that's pretty much what they said to us at the financial aid presentation on interview day.

They make it very very hard. I've been a registered voter (an had a Vermont ID) for 8 years but I had trouble proving that I am a resident because I payed taxes in another state once (as a non-resident).

At my interview they said that even if you marry a VT resident during your first year at UVM you will not be considered a resident your second year...
