We encourage you, your students, and their families to check out all of our visit options at uvm.edu/visit.

UVM will be accommodating both in person and virtual high school visits, domestically and internationally.  Please don’t hesitate to contact us if you are interested in having a UVM representative visit your school! We look forward to connecting with you and your students soon!

UVM continues to be test optional for both domestic and international students (through the Fall of 2026). This past admissions cycle, 50% of admitted students applied without SAT or ACT scores. Students without test scores will also be considered for our Honors College as well as for merit scholarships, and will not be disadvantaged in our process in any way.

UVM is excited to offer three early admission opportunities for first-year students applying for Fall 2024; Early Action and Early Decision I or II. These options allow students to receive an early admissions decision (and scholarship notification). Early Decision I applicants will hear their admissions decision on December 1, Early Action applicants will hear their admissions decision by late-December and Early Decision II applicants will hear their admissions decision by end of February. 

For more information about application deadlines, visit our dates and deadlines page.

For more information on test optional and our admissions requirements, please visit our domestic and international sites. 

If you have any questions, please connect with the admissions counselor in your area. We look forward to working with you!

The most recent cycle for the Green and Gold Scholarship has closed. Approved nominees will be hearing about their receipt of this prestigious award in early fall.

Under the UVM Promise, admitted undergraduate students starting in the Fall 2023 semester or later, whose parents' adjusted gross income (AGI) is $75,000 or less will receive Federal, state and institutional grants and scholarships to cover their tuition and comprehensive fee, as well as a waiver for the University acceptance fee.

The Catamount Commitment, which supports our Vermont, dependent, Pell-eligible students, continues to be very well received. Under the Catamount Commitment, admitted Vermont students who are eligible for the Federal Pell Grant (starting in the Fall 2017 semester or later), will receive federal, state and institutional grants and scholarships to cover their tuition and comprehensive fees, as well as an automatic waiver of the University acceptance fee, in addition to academic and personal support networks.

Starting fall 2021, students at the Community College of Vermont (CCV) who complete a minimum of 60 transferable academic credits for specified programs will be eligible to complete their bachelor’s degree at UVM in two years through the articulated 2+2 pathways. Only courses with an earned grade of C or higher will transfer to UVM for credit.

Students can apply through the UVM Admissions Office as early as May of their senior year in high school or as late as the semester they are completing their associate degree from CCV. Students must be admitted to CCV prior to being accepted to the Pathway Program, and those who do not meet the minimum entrance requirements for UVM out of high school must complete them while at CCV. Applicants have up to 3 years to enroll at UVM after completing the pathways. During the last semester at CCV, students will complete an Intent to Enroll form at UVM.

Students who meet the CCV to UVM 2+2 Pathway requirements with a 2.8 cumulative GPA will be awarded at $10,000 scholarship ($2,500 per semester) at UVM for full-time enrollment
