UVM MEPN 2011

U.S.A. Vermont

Published

Anyone other MEPN applicants on here? I applied for fall '11 entry and was recently told the program coordinators were trying to decide whether to do interviews this year or not and it was still up in the air. Also was told decisions should be in early February, like last year.

vls09 and crs249: Thanks for the words of encouragement. I'm not sure if this is justified or not, but I do feel like I wouldn't have heard anything unless I inquired. Did you feel like that too? Perhaps they were on the verge of sending the e-mail when I e-mailed them...not sure. I'll keep you posted if I hear good news (or bad).

So now, obviously, I would love to hear from anyone accepted to the program that is thinking of backing out :) Are there any accepted applicants out there who are still waiting for decisions from other schools? Anyone who might have second thoughts about moving to frigid Vermont? Please post if you are considering other options...I'm trying to plan my future :) Thanks!

Hi everyone, I know I haven't posted on here before, but I have also been waiting for a decision and haven't heard anything.

I just called UVM (today) and asked whether decisions have been sent out yet. The woman I spoke to said "That process is underway right now and you should be getting something in the mail very shortly" so it sounds to me like decisions have NOT gone out yet. This would explain why we haven't heard anything about acceptances. :p Still crossing my fingers.

kmcg,

thanks for the info - that explains why I have not heard anything. I hope the first person who actually hears something definitive (reject or accept) will post on here; I think it is fair to say everyone on here is in a similar situation. Good luck again to everyone :)

Good luck to everyone...I am hopeful that we all will hear good news soon.

Hi every one, I got the acceptance letter by email on Jan 27, and a letter from graduate college one week later. I do not visit this forum often. Sorry for the late post. Good luck to every one.

This just keeps getting weirder and weirder...

Congrats Tea2000! Did you have to turn in a deposit by a certain date? Are you still waiting to hear from any other schools? I am on the waitlist and hope (VERY MUCH!) to be joining your cohort in the Fall...

Yes. I was required to turn in the $500 deposit by Feb 7. UVM is the only school I applied to. My family is here so that limits my choices. I also think UVM is a great school. Congrats for being on the wait list, and we probably will be in the same class.

"Admission is contingent upon successful completion (grade B or better) of the following courses: Anatomy and Physiology (I and II). If you have not already done so, please submit verification of enrollment or completion of these courses prior to June 1, 2011." Luckily I do not need to take them. For those here who have not taken them, registering them now and sending verification of enrollment in will definitely help your application. Biomedical Science I is not offered this summer so it is important to take Anatomy and Physiology (I and II).

tea2000: Thanks for the information. The information about A&P was not in the letter that I got but I am grateful to know...

Do you know anyone else who has been admitted to the program?

I only know another one accepted as she is in the face book group created by vtfnp. I am sure there are people in the premedical program applied. Have you tried to make some connections with some one in the premed? You can still improve your application by registering another class or others based on your own situation, then notice them the update.

Got the official bad news today :-( oh well. Starting apps for some other types of programs. Good luck to all in whatever comes next!

I am sorry! Good luck to you.
