Last year some OOS EA applicants got notified of acceptances on November 10. Anyone have any intel as to whether UVM is doing some early EA notifications this year?? My D applied EA, and it sure would be nice to have an acceptance in her pocket before the “official” EA notification date of 12/14.
I’ve been wondering the same thing. Everything I read points to 12/14 but hoping there will be an early wave that isn’t advertised. Will let you know if my D hears early.
I will, too!
We were hoping for the same thing. Crossing fingers!
We were also hoping, but as each day goes by, it’s not looking good! Someone posted this question in the admissions Facebook group, but they have yet to answer.
Strange - they seem to have done this past several years… why not again? I guess not totally out of the question.Yet. We could get a surprise before Thanksgiving week! I wonder, though, if they just got too many questions about, “Why did you let that person know and not me? Why do I have to wait until 12/14?” Seems it would be easier for admissions to just do it all in one fell swoop on one day. Maybe.
@MomOutWest Yes, they have done it the last few years. I was holding out hope because the official release date last year (in last years common data set) was Dec 2016 and then they had that Nov release so I was really hoping for the same this year even though their official info says December. You may be correct in that the Nov release probably was confusing to people and they probably did get a ton of questions. A surprise before Thanksgiving would be amazing, but sadly for all of us, I think we are going to have to wait until December 14th! Best of luck!
Just out of curiosity, to what major/college did your kids apply? Mine applied to psych in the College of Arts and Sciences.
@lr4550 Ha! My D applied same major/college.
still waiting for the decisions… heard its dec but fingers crossed… do they put kids on deferred and revisit again in JAn?
My daughter applied to the College of Education and Social Services. Still hoping they send out a group of early acceptances this week. Would be such a nice Thanksgiving!
@cvpool Yes, I still have fingers crossed over here…
@SSNY618 I see that comment in the admissions Facebook page - wish they would answer it, either yay or nay… (what’s the point of hosting a group page, if you’re not going to interact…)
@MomOutWest I agree! I have been checking it daily and pretty surprised they have not answered it. They have answered all other questions, it’s just strange to not respond. It’s my child’s first choice school and we are all dying over here. The wait is torture!
Weighing in from the Class of 2021–they were pretty transparent last year (on the website) that EA decisions would be coming out in two waves. If that information is not showing up this year, I would bet that they are only releasing one set of decisions.
@klinska thanks for that info! Helpful to have expectations in line!
@klinska Thanks for chiming in!
Did y’all see that response in that Facebook group? An administrator responded and said indeed 12/14 is the date for EA. Alas… more than 2 more weeks of waiting!
