hopefulinvermont - I too haven't heard ANYTHING at all. I'm really angry and frustrated by this. What is the point in paying the application fee if they cannot even send out a rejection letter? This is absurd. My application was complete in mid-October. It's now nearing the end of February and I've heard nothing. If UVM is this irresponsible when it comes to admissions, I really wonder about the quality of their courses.

easye, Thanks for the quick reply! I thought they had mentioned "phone calls" but never specified interviews. I wonder if this means I was not selected for a phone interview. I'm not going to rule anything out yet, but luckily have applied for a few backup schools too. Did you apply for entry this year as well? Their lack of information, on both the website and simply email/phone communication is quite discouraging. I unfortunately was not able to attend one of the informational sessions so I do not know much about the program. I did, however, used to work for the UVM College of Medicine/Fletcher Allen (hospital) as a clinical research coordinator. The hospital and campus location is wonderful right in Burlington, VT. Are you from the area? It is a definitely a great place to visit, and even to live. Hope you hear back from UVM soon and thanks for replying to my post!

I applied to the Masters Entry in Nursing Program at UVM in October of 2009. I have yet to hear anything from UVM. I have called both their graduate admissions office and their Department of Nursing and gotten a different answer each time. First I was told we would hear back early January (deadline was December 1st). Then I was told end of January. Then I was told a phone call would be received end of January/early February. The latest I've been told is that letters are sent out at the end of February. I'm at my wits end with this program as I have applied to others and been accepted. Unfortunately UVM is my first choice, and I have no idea if I even have a chance. I would like to start filling out financial aide information for other programs, but would really like to hear from UVM first. Any insight? Has anyone applied and already heard from UVM?
